Cycles for Softimage

[MKXSI]

Hi again, i managed to get rid of the fireflies, in fact, i forgot hit + to subdivide object...

Any clue why is this happeing? Render not using all cores even i put fixed cores to 64 on settings....
Rendering image is 3200*1800 btw...

Render Cores used with Cycles for Softimage



I often use between 400-600 AA samples and internal cycles denoising or FX Denoise (https://ssoftadd.github.io/fxDenoisePage.html)

@wireframex What do you think of the Intel denoiser? I haven't installed it yet but wondered how it compared to something like Nvidia's denoiser,which is great for look-dev but loses too much high frequency detail for finals (and is obviously impossible to use on animation sequences). What I've found with denoisers so far, is that only Altus and the main denoisers in Arnold, RenderMan and V-Ray can be used for production.

FX Denoise is not bad at all I like the fact it works inside SI and its free

Could you please try to render a big resouliton image at 3200 * 1800 a see what happens?
Thanks

With your rendering resolution I have more or less the same result as you.
Try to play with the tile size ...

Ah mon ami, i feel more tranquilo now. is this maybe some bug to fix i a new version? Thanks for trying for me 16x16 worked the best, but it still at 70% of CPU speed.

It looks like a bug from original Cycles side. We can only hope that Cycles developers fix it (or it already fix in the current version). In any case, later I will update Sycles with the latest version of the Cycles.

Apologize me, but i can't find anymore GPU -CPU options... where are now? i'm using 1.8.1. thank!!!!!!!!!!!!

[wireframex]

Hi,
No pb here with 1.8.1 Nvidia Driver 441.08


Try to uninstall the Sycles_1.8.1 add-on from the Softimage menu file the have a look to your c:\Users\xxxxxx\Autodesk\Softimage_xxxx\Addons\ and remove the sycles directory.
Then install it an other time.

On some machines the addon additionaly requires vc14 runtime. Download the Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 package from here and install it (or google by keywords "vc14 runtime").

Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Device section should be in parameters in any case, even if the Cycles does not find any device for render. Old versions of the Sycles does not have device parameters. If you save a scene with old version of the Sycles, then update addon and open this scene again, then the PPG of the render parameters will be old and does not contains new settings. This is Softimage behaviour. It seems that yashugan's screen demonstrate this.

Good to know.

Sorry if I miss something
But "skip rendered" not working? I think It is belongs to scene option, independent of which renderer is used...
