newb question

Post by Craignu » Thu Nov 03, 2022 3:18 am

Hello,
Does Twilight work with GPU now? better still does it support multiple GPU's?
Twilight seems to be the only stable render engine that works with Animator, and I need to run animated renders and GPU renders would be fastest for such a task.

Twilight Render renders on CPU, but using Fastforward AI denoise add-on for Twilight Pro uses GPU if it is an NVIDIA cuda-enabled graphics card.

Fastforward is shockingly good, and increases rendering speed exponentially. See below, each rendered 2 minutes unbiased render setting for Twilight Render. (Easy 09, Metropolis Light Transport)

It is suggested for rendering animations that you use a very high-powered CPU. AMD Ryzen Threadrippers with 64 threads or better.
