@@DIGITALMEAT an update, I was still getting crashes so I contacted Maxon, they sent me a vid to do a complete GPU wipe with DDU. It looks like doing that in addition to doing this has been the key. So far everything has been much smoother. Thanks again!

[@DIGITALMEAT]

@@LostSleepTV - Correct. Sometimes overwriting drivers over and over can leave stuff behind. I use DDU myself every so often.

This fixed my problem with crashes using Body Paint in C4D 2023.2. Thanks for making this video!

[@5_v]

Thank you so much sir! It's very helpful! Since I changed 1080 on 3080ti I had a lot of crashes in c4d especially with the new versions of drivers. It's pretty strange that with old drivers (summer of 2021) 3080ti worked much more stable. But now I have a stable work with the last studio driver.

[@drewnix7201]

Thanks for the info. Just changed my settings. I got the 1950x also. It's been a good processor.

[@ahmedmoussa79]

after applying these settings I have also noticed less gaps between each throttle on the performance graph display and the lag in the square selection tool is gone. btw I'm using an RTX 3060 Laptop GPU, it's like I've just doubled the performance. thanks a million dude!

[@forever4c12]

I wanna give you a big thanks for this video. Crashed a lot before and didn't had high hope on this but your suggestion did work. Things much improved.

[@powercou]

Just followed your video and tried this in Maya 23 with Arnold after having full program crashes or early 'completion' messages when rendering. I don't want to celebrate too early but it seems to have fixed it. Thank you for this!

[@DIGITALMEAT]

Great to hear! It looks like I'm going cross platform! 😅

[@powercou]

@@DIGITALMEAT Yes it works in the same way. I tried a more crowded scene with higher samples and unfortunately it crashed again. I am however on an old card (rtx 970) which could have something to do with it. Maya and Arnold (especially GPU rendering) is an unstable mess on it's own though.

[@DIGITALMEAT]

@@powercou - If your scene is very busy, and you're using an old card with limited VRAM, you might be running out of GPU memory. Does Arnold have an option for "Out of core" rendering for GPU rendering? if so, turn it on.

[@skurilbeats]

Many thanks for the settings! Now CD4/Octane runs much more smoothly. No crashes so far 🙏

[@alexanderprestrelski2563]

Sam, thank you so much for this. I eventually hit a point where I was tired of putting up with such basic performance failure with the viewport (viewport frame doesn't update without cursor moving!!). As soon as I went to tinkering with the NVIDIA Control Panel and restarting C4D, it felt like I put on a new pair of glasses and can work so much better now. NO IDEA why C4D hasn't caught issues with modern GPUs and G-sync in Windows 10.

[@Mikeydowdle]

Thank you!! I don't want to speak too soon and jinx it, but I think you've saved my machine! I was having constant crashes and blue screens with my 3080 ti while running Redshift. It seems a WHOLE lot more stable now, phew!

[@loganpenciu7317]

Thank you, thank you, thank you! This improved my viewport performance quite a bit! RTX 3090 & 1080 ti EDIT: Um holy shit, this unlocked the actual power of my 3090 & 1080 ti...I had frames that took 30 minutes that now only take 10 minutes just from doing this!!!

[@rendcycle]

Thanks for this! I will try this out. I also experience hanging and reboot problems using iClone 7 and Blender since I upgraded to RTX 3070 Ti. This is an issue with the Nvidia driver and/or the GPU hardware itself because in Windows Event Viewer, the reported errors is always related to the "nvlddmkm" Nvidia driver. I haven't seen any complaints with AMD GPUs so far.

Thanks for the help mate, very much appreciated. I've made sure to subscribe.

[@robdiaz]

Thanks for this! Just curious, do you know what’s actually happening in the registry with this change?

[@DIGITALMEAT]

Yes, a TDR value (Timeout detection and recovery), is a windows function to prevent any rendering or GPU computation from locking up the system, the Windows operating system kills the GPU driver whenever a rendering takes more than a few seconds. The problem with this is that there are some applications that may need a longer amount of time, applications are not authorized to modify this setting directly, this procedure has to be done manually.

[@joacim.w]

@@DIGITALMEAT That's a shame. :) I'm using Redshift and Octane and changed from 2080 Ti to 3080 a few months ago but this happened on 2080 as well.

[@joacim.w]

@@DIGITALMEAT After working for a full day with your fix, it's so much better than before! BUT I still do get this issue where C4D's viewport becomes unresponsive, if I try to resize it it just stretches a pixelated image of the viewport. When this happened before the whole application became unresponsive and any unsaved work was lost, but now only the viewport is frozen so I can still save my work and restart the app to get back to normal. Before when this happened a pop-up would appear saying something about CUDA error and that redshift has crashed but not anymore. Do you have any clue what could cause this? Update: I went ahead and updated my Intel GPU to the latest drivers and so far so good.

[@DIGITALMEAT]

@@joacim.w - Wait, you have an Intel GPU? I'm pretty sure they don't have CUDA cores and therefore aren't CUDA devices

Thanks for this man, gonna see if this fixes my issues. I've been on a perpetual license of R20 for years and December gone I upgraded to S25 but I've been happily using R23 for all the new features. Thing is, C4D has been crashing relentlessly. Even doing basic modeling tasks. No black screens but just a total lock up and then it's gone. Not sure if this fix will work but fingers crossed!

Thanks so much for the info Sam! Do you happen to know if this solves the issue with not being able to use Adobe products while rendering with Redshift? People suggest installing the infamous 497.29 driver, but I don't believe that drivers supports 3x series cards. I've still got a 2080Ti, but wasn't sure if that was a completely different issue altogether...

Cheers Sam interesting info here. Does this only apply to the 3090 or any of the other newer cards from Nvidia? Also is there a reason as to why you select 32bit rather than 64?

[@DIGITALMEAT]

It'll apply to any Nvidia card if you're having issues with C4D and OpenGl. Don't worry about 32bit vs 64bit, this has nothing to do with your OS type, it's purely about data type.

thx a lot it solved my unusable redshift license ! :)

[@Life_Is_A...]

So in my case. Applying this solution would freeze my system, instead of the usual crash when the screen goes black, and windows recovers. This time windows doesn't recover, I have to do a hard power off and restart. What actually fixed the problem, was two things: 1. Disable anti aliasing in C4D Open GL preferences. 2. Update graphics drivers. I'm not entirely sure which of the two was the culprit. But C4D seems to function without crashing now.

Thanks for this! I have a Quadro RTX 4000 graphics card. I randomly get weird issues in C4D R21 myself. My camera viewport in C4D is getting stretched (sideways), but the GUI still looks fully normal with all icons and everything.. No other software have these issues, it only happens in C4D. Restarting Cinema solves this, but it is very annoying. I have done these changes know, just about to restart.. hope this solution helps for me also. Thanks!

[@DIGITALMEAT]

Fingers crossed!

[@Tennet3D]

@@DIGITALMEAT Unfortunately it didn't help with my C4D problems. My viewports in R21 gets stretched sideways, while the GUI stays normal (all menu items, texts etc. look normal, only the viewports that gets this stretch..). And no other softwares fail at the same time, I can go in to Photoshop (or whatever) and everything works like normal there, while C4D has this stretch "active".. so this is only connected to Cinema 4D. This happens randomly, but a few times a week. A restart of C4D solves the problem temporarely, but it would be nice to find out and solve what what is causing this. I believe it is something related to my graphics card (NVIDIA QUadro RTX4000). My GPU drivers are updated, but problem still exists.

[@DIGITALMEAT]

@@Tennet3D - This sounds like an issue for either Maxon Support, or Nvidia Support I'm afraid.

[@bodobanali]

Hi. I already wrote something here. But it's not really related. (Btw … if you remember it: I could not solve the issue with the GPU … had to replace it … seems like a common issue with the Razer Blade that GPU overheating can happen and damage the GPU. ). Anyway. I now have a 4090 + a 2080ti. The 2080ti i connected via an eGPU. And as soon as the eGPU is connected, Cinema always wants to use the 2080ti as navigation GPU, instead of my in build 4090. I did the selection in the NVIDIA Control Panel (4:02) for Cinema 4D and even in the Global Settings. But Cinema still uses 2080 instead of 4090. Only way to solve it would be to unplug the 2080. Doeas you (or someone) knows what could cause that?

[@bodobanali]

O.k. for those who are curious: I found the problem. It seems that Win11 overrides some settings wich are made in the NVIDIA Control Panel. Windows has its own graphics settings, wich GPU should be used (seems to connect to some power management eco-settings). If you know it, its simple. Go to System > Display > Graphics > Standard (or choose user defined options for apps to change it individually) PS: I have a non English Win-version … so maybe you'll find a bitt different names for that menu.

[@bodobanali]

I have a build in 2070 q-Max and a 2080Ti via an eGPU in my Razer Blade 15 (2019). Since a few days it keeps hanging on a 2070 bucket (i think) after around 20-40 frames of rendering. (Redshift) Seems like Cinema stops beeing executed on the 2070 cause it's also no longer listed in the NVIDIA-Activity-Monitor. When i try to stop the rendering cinama freezed. When i than try to stop cinam (via Task Manager) my whole system freezes. I reinstalled everything (Windows, Cinema), updated BIOS and every driver. And still that issue appears. I am very curious if your tut may help. I'll test it out now and will write asap. Just want to share the info.

[@bodobanali]

Hm … unfortunately it freezes again after 19 frames (evry frame ca 20 seconds of rendering). This time whole system freezes directly without even going through the task manager.

[@DIGITALMEAT]

@@bodobanali - As your GPU disappears from the NVIDIA Activity Monitor, this sounds like it's not a Cinema 4D issue, there maybe something wrong with your machine. Or, it could be that your not supplying enough power to your GPUs, have you checked the power requirement?

[@bodobanali]

​@@DIGITALMEAT You were right … Seems like the GPU was indead so overheated that it got destroyed. Had to replace it. Rendering overnight on a summer day with a Razer Laptop and it's inbuild 2070 Q-Max was obviously a bad idea. Now i changed to a desktop workstation …

[@DIGITALMEAT]

What renderer are you using? This matters because depending on the renderer, you could be using the CPU or the GPU. In any case, here's my opinion. It absolutely baffles me why people continue to do serious 3D work on Laptops and note books, particularly rendering. You have all these components packed into a small space, with not much airflow when compared to a desktop. I very much suspect that the reason renders take ages, is because as the components heat up, they are being "thermal throttled" by the system to prevent over heating. In the case of a shut downs, the thermal throttling wasn't enough maybe?

Hello, I have an Asus zenbook pro duo laptop, which has a second monitor on the lower part of the laptop above the keyboard. The GPU is a 2060 + intel core i9. When i first open the program, it wants to open onto my smaller lower screen. When it does this, all of the functions work properly, yet who wants to work on a 3D software on the smaller screen LOL. But, when i drag the program up to my main screen everything seems to function properly until i try to click any of the options on the top toolbar such as "file".

hello sir how to switch computer to gpu rander setting cinama 4d 3050 rtx my computer not use gup only system speed use plz help. outher softwer iclone adobe use gup . but cinama 4d not gpu speed use ? plz help

[@DIGITALMEAT]

you need to have a GPU renderer installed like Octane

[@metamotionsite]

Thx. fix )

[@ashkanmirzaei2608]

Thanks for the help mate , my gpu is rtx 3080 and i cant render with redshift in c4d eror (no devices found ) I really don't know what to do...

[@BEEFDOCTOR]

Is your copy of Cinema4D or Redshift cracked?

[@ashkanmirzaei2608]

@@BEEFDOCTOR yes ,I even installed the older version redshift ver 26,41 , but it still gives the same error

[@marcus_ohreallyus]

This has been a big problem for me also. When I find a good driver for c4d, then premiere doesn't work properly. And not only do you need to find a good driver for C4d, redshift also has to like it

[@DIGITALMEAT]

Just get the latest "Studio driver"

@@marcus_ohreallyus - Ok, I've got some things you might wanna do, I realise I might be preaching to the choir and you might be already aware. • Make sure your BIOS is up to date. • Can your PSU support the total power draw? not just your cards, but everything else too. • Have you got the extra 8pin or 4pin CPU power lead connected to your motherboard in addition to the 24pin ATX cable? • Are the power leads supplying your GPUs separate PCI to 8pins? Pigtails are a big no no. • Are your chipset drivers up to date?

Ok, I'm gonna need more information. Did you try the fixes in this video? Have you got the latest Nvidia studio drivers installed?

[@selahattincin3291]

@@DIGITALMEAT Thanks bro for your feedback,. Yes i did your method. And update as well Nvidia...well Cinema 4D is not crashing with me. Let me try to explain it... My problem and what I don't understand is; In my opinion, the computer I am currently using is a good performing computer for animation of very basic objects. But what I don't understand is why it freezes so much after i´m using "Soft Body" just for a single object? And my object is less then 1200 polygons.

[@DIGITALMEAT]

@@selahattincin3291 - Ok, what you are describing has nothing to do with the GPU, so nothing to do with this video or the fixes described in it. All physics simulations are carried out on the CPU, and as far as I'm aware they are not multithreaded calculations (meaning that only a single core is used). 1200 polygons is a lot for Softbody simulations for various reasons I won't get into, instead do the simulation on a low poly object and put that object in a subdivision surface, or check this video out. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rWjCnqGiept-qKs

Hi when I run Redshift. I'm getting redshift failed allocate necessary GPU recyclable memory. Abort the render. I'm using a RTX 3070 and my CPU is a AMD Ryzen 9 5950x 16 core. Any idea of how to fix this?

[@DIGITALMEAT]

Is it a big scene? it sounds like Redshift needs more GPU memory than your card has. The 3070 has 8gb right?

[@SteelSaiyan]

@@DIGITALMEATyeah I think so I deleted some objects and it rendered now. And yes the gpu is 8gb

[@DIGITALMEAT]

@@SteelSaiyan - Turn on "out of core" rendering, that should help with larger scene files, but may impact render times.

Hi when I run a Redshift render my scene will render then my screen will turn black and the pc will restart itself. I'm using a RTX 3070 and my CPU is a AMD Ryzen 9 5950x 16 core. Any idea of how to fix this?

[@DIGITALMEAT]

This sounds like a power issue, what wattage does your power supply provide? what are your cards requirements?

[@cord.]

@@DIGITALMEAT I have a 750W Gold power supply, and my graphics card is an RTX 3070 8GB. My PC meets the requirements for Redshift. However, when I render my scene, it initially renders a few frames, but then a black screen appears and the system restarts.
