And it's nice to be here and to know all of you creative guys.
In fact I use some not really economical PCs
When I finished the spaceflight ("only" on my Acer with one of the last Athlon 4core Processors) I also have maintained my gaming hobby on steam. So I buyed a core i7 4770 Asus with a gforce 750 TI. Good enough for some games but when I learned a little bit programming on the CryEngine this was too slow as well
(I will reupload a first experiment into my channel next days - but I have abandoned it in favor to TG3 with the higher realism)
But what was possible within hours on the Cryenine unfortunately needs months and extremely higher knowledge in TG3 -- but seems to be worth
)
Same time I had first little success with TG3 and increased my PC-farm with another core i7 4770 but including a Gforce SLI (2x GTX770)
Unfortunately the SLI-Graphics has no influence on TG3 render speed, but not using the graphics power keeps the PC quiet
But the 16GB RAM increases the speed app. 15-30% (The other i7 has only 8 GB)
At the moment I do the animation renders and the work on the more complex scenes on the two PCs with the core i7 4770 and do some basic scene developments or object "checking" on the old athlon PC. For gaming I spend almost no more time... Perhaps I will invest into two more PCs to use my remaining two TG3 licences (it's 5 within the prof-version - right?)
Some day in the future I must contact pixelplow to ask why registration is only possible with credit card though they offer paypal (I have not too many principles, but credit card in Internet is my absolute taboo)
Hey - enough babble
We now have completed frame 245 of 375 on "Machine 2" for the "early-morning-duck-in-the-pool-animation"...
