What tricks make things render faster?
In batch and action there are a number of things that affect the machines speed Samples, texture on/off, antialiasing, motion blur and filtering all affect speed but did you know … not having the screen zoomed in to the default “home” position adds some overhead to your render as the machine has to rasterize each frame to the smaller size – particuarly noticable on RE2’s ? . Another thing worth checking – if you’re not displacing any images or using lighting – you can drag the samples box all the way up to fifty More memory won’t really improve speed: in general, Flame pre-allocates the memory it needs at startup, so you either have enough memory or you don’t. At film res, memory is more closely tied to functionality, i.e. you need more memory if you want to have more additional layers in action without memory swapping. {Aside to Onyx 1 users: There is one area where memory can improve performance: you should make sure that your memory is correctly configured to obtain at least 2-way
