Cuda cycles error: solusi
inblender.blogspot.com - 2011-12-19 21:32:00


Bagi yang sudah pernah mencoba cycles render dengan opsi device: GPU pada versi 2.60  dan berhasil dengan baik. mungkin ketika mencoba lagi pada versi blender 2.61 yang baru release akan menemui kegagalan jika graphic card anda di anggap sudah tua oleh Cycles render engine.

ada beberapa solusi yang tak mengharuskan kita membeli lagi card baru.
1.download cudalibrary: cudalib64bit atau cudalib32bit sesuaikan dengan OS anda
2.kemudian ektrak dan copykan file yang sudah di download ke folder dimana blender di-install. contoh: 2.61/scripts/addons/cycles/lib.

3.jalankan Blender Cycles render. dan pada opsi feature set aktifkan Experimental, Device: GPU, dan GPU Type:CUDA

dari yang saya sudah coba opsi ini berhasil, untuk perbandingan jika saya pake opsi GPU kecepatan proses rendernya bisa tiga kali lebih cepat dibanding hanya memakai opsi CPU saja.

note versi cycle blender 2.62 :
bagi yang memakai vga dengan  Compute Capability (atau yang dalam cycle dikenal dengan istilah shader model) kurang dari 1.3

Tetap Bisa menggunakan cycle GPU dengan menggunakan nonofficial blender builder-nya fish di graphicall.org .

PLAYING AROUND: Fluid Simulation
Vimeo / Blender 3D - 2011-12-19 13:47:00

Fluid simulation baking & rendering speed test on an quad core mac using 64bit blender. Both simulation and rendering were very fast and I hope that visual feedback on simulated frames will be back soon.

Simulation
-Domain Resolution: 5 Meters
- Simulation Resolution: 100
- Start: 0 End: 7 (this is not intuitive to me)

Material and Rendering
- Ray Mirror (Depth: 10)
- Ray Transparency (Depth: 10)
- Approximate Ambient Occlusion

Cube Fracture with Particles
Vimeo / Blender 3D - 2011-12-19 13:13:31

Just a quick layered fracture test. I have used a Bullet Physics Sim as base and layered 6 particles system on top.
Three of these are physicsystems used for the flying shards. The other 3 are static and used for the debris around the fractured collision points which where animated using Shapekeys. I also added three camera shakes to convey the weight of the cubes.
I used vector motion blur and a subtle animated lens distortion to make the camera shake more believable. The vigentte effect I have seen first in a node-screenshot by Mike Pan who has been using lens distortion, math node and fast gaussian blur.
Unfornately I would have loved to define the final look a little more but the defocus node is sometimes causing a lot of artifacts in certain conditions which can be really annoying. I am hoping that the compositor redesign fixes this isses.
The new node-groups by phonybone (lukas tönne) rock!

EDIT: I just saw that blender user 'nion' did the same thing way earlier than I did - so credits to him/her ;)
