I think they are in trouble ๐
Definitely the biggest scene I've ever done.
I'm calculating 6 to 7 renders of about two hours each, plus half a day of post production work in photophop.
You guys said it was worth doing scenes like this so there it is. ๐
My video card is a good card (RTX 2080TI), but as Daz is a crap program I can only render a little geometry at a time, hence the need to make several separate renders and then assemble them in photoshop. That way a lot of time and quality is lost because the shadows don't behave the same way when the characters are close to each other.
My video card has 11gb of RAM, there is a video card (RTX 3090) that has 24gb of RAM, it would solve my problem, since it could render twice as much geometry and textures at once. That would speed up the work a lot.
The problem is that I would have to not only have this card but also upgrade my entire PC, memories, motherboard, processor, etc... even the power supply and no break (UPS) would have to be stronger.
Unfortunately, the country I live in has one of the highest taxes in the world, a great pc around here costs almost the value of a popular car. For now with the value that the page is giving me I am not able to save a good amount per month. I'm thinking of making a temporary Tier of $12.50 or $15.00 for those who want and can help me achieve this goal.
A PC like this here in my country goes for about $5,000.00. It would be wonderful to be able to produce with more tranquility and time making more content available to you. I charge myself a lot, I want to take higher leaps, migrate to Blender, make better renders, also animations, etc... but at the moment I paid for a Blender course and I can't find time to study. This improvement in my equipment is definitely a step in my work that I can no longer postpone. Of course I'm not going to do a gigantic scene like this all the time. But even the other smaller scenes would also be much faster to do. There's no way, that's my style, maybe some don't like it, but I have to respect my nature.๐
Thank you all for the support. None of you are obligated to do anything. This is just a helping hand that I'm asking those who want and can and who are happy to help. You guys are amazing and I don't know how to thank you. My friends and family say that I have to take care of myself more, that I have to go out more. Yes, it's true, but I also tell them that you are the most important thing I have right now. Some may think: But you don't have a family? Yes, I have family. Precisely for this reason, if I didn't have you, my family and I wouldn't be able to survive, hence the importance of having people like you supporting me even in such difficult times. And I'm very grateful for that.
Thanks again to all of you and I'm sorry for the long text๐๐
