It’s now official that NVIDIA’s RTX graphics cards will move to a next-generation ‘RTX 30 series’ in October, with the most affordable model there being the $499 | \u00a3469 GeForce RTX 3070<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Their older ‘RTX 20 series’ GeForce RTX 2080 Super is said to be the current best for iRay, a card which in the UK will set you back at least \u00a3625 for the cheapest such brand on Amazon UK, which will make it unaffordable for many. So I guess the question is… will this new RTX 3070<\/strong> match the RTX 2080 Super<\/strong>, while shaving \u00a3150+ off the price and bringing “the<\/em> iRay card” below \u00a3500? Maybe not, but it’ll be interesting to see the first not-just-videogaming reviews and bench-tests, and learn how well they do with iRay renders. Including, ideally, a relatively complex scene tested with a real-time viewport iRay view.<\/p>\n

NVIDIA will also ship the beta of its own Omniverse Machinima movie-making software, originally designed for architects but now also being touted for entertainment…<\/p>\n

“Users will be able to import assets from games or from online marketplaces for stock content, or from content creation applications”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Set for October. Update: it’s now December and it thus appears to have been heavily delayed.<\/em><\/p>\n

Incidentally, for future reference for those wanting to turn on the faster Interactive mode of iRay in the very latest version, it’s here…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I seem to recall it used to be up top, under the Engine:<\/em> drop-down, so people upgrading from older version may be wondering where it went.<\/p>\n

Render settings can be saved to a preset via the top menu | File… then the saved presets can be loaded back to the scene by drag-and-drop from their folder. For some reason, for me the saved presets never show up in the UI<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
