That looks familiar.......my cats love to hide their toys in any boots available and then dive in -head first- trying to get them out again.......Thanks all! Here is one using the kitten and free LAMH preset and also a WIP on one of my Calico coats.

Oh that is just amazing! It's a tour de force in beautiful texturing. Any ETA for the calico coats?
Took a long time to render Iray dropped down to CPU only rendering, this is a really lovely Lamh preset, really sets off the cat.
Beautiful Tparo!! So I've always wondered- what does DS like best/use for rendering? RAM, vid card? All? I ask as you say here your render went to CPU only. I do see Poser 11/Superfly wants to use my Intel i7 etc CPU and does not give me any other options for example.
Thx!

DS Iray prefers big Nvidia graphics cards. Other makes of graphics cards don't help for Iray rendering. If your graphics card isn't big enough to handle the scene, it will render using only the CPU. From my limited understanding, RAM amounts matter primarily when rendering only with the CPU.
Yep, I only have a 1050 with 4gb, was all I could afford, so anything with more than a couple of figures and a bit of scenery drops to CPU.
Thanks! That makes sense. I have loads of RAM but a Mac video card (ATI Radeon 5770 HD). LOL my old Mac has Nvidia cards.
Not the case with LAMH hair, but in cases like forests and other instances-rich scenes instancing optimization->memory is very effective. (The Harpwood Trail/Pond for example.)
