Blender Settings I wish I knew Before!

[@KaizenTutorials]

I actually forgot to mention one amazing built-in add-on! It's called Add Mesh: Extra Objects. I use it all the time and it adds additional mesh objects and shapes which you can simply add to your scenes with Shift+A. Definitely make sure to enable it! 🤓

[@imiy]

Shift A?

[@KaizenTutorials]

Yep that one haha! Ill edit my comment, oopsie

@@KaizenTutorials you forgot the #add

[@blenderinthegrass]

One of my favorite add-ons is Loop Tools. It makes it really easy to do things like Bridge when editing. Just select your vertices, right-click and it's right there on top.

[@KaizenTutorials]

Loop tools is a great Builtin Addon for sure!

[@Yaroslav_A.]

2:25 Well.. honestly, "Orbit Around Selection" SUСKS. There is a MUCH better way to choose the orbit point - just "ALT + MIDDLE MOUSE CLICK" will set the orbit point on mesh or on ANY point in a Scene, which was clicked this way. Such approach gives MUCH more freedom and agility for work, than "Orbit Around Selection"

GPU subdivision is the most bugged function. Very often I saw messages from different people when after using the Subdivision modifier their objects just disappear. And the main reason was GPU subdivision. So be careful with this.

[@norm_olsen]

Congrats on the 100k subs! You've earned it! Keep on creating valuable Blender content! On a side note regarding splitting viewport windows, here's a fun fact: Click-dragging from an upper corner of a window and then holding down the Control key creates a new split viewport window using snap increments! This is handy if say, you want to split a viewport window to 50%-50%. This is not limited to creating a new window however! Begin sliding a window border (to resize it) and then once again hold down the Control key while click dragging will also result in snapping the window border's position!

[@KaizenTutorials]

0:55 "GPU subdivision" this seems to be auto activated at least in Blender 3.6.2. Also I can see you have "Viewport Anti-Aliasing" turned down quite a lot. This does not seem to make a visual difference on my install, although I also restarted Blender ... Am I missing something?

[@KaizenTutorials]

uhm anti aliasing doesnt change much no. the outlines become a bit more jagged, but it can have an impact on overall performance, so thats why mine are low.

[@cyborgmetropolis7652]

Is there a disadvantage to setting OptiX to both GPU and CPU? I have Ryzen 7700X CPU and an NVIDIA RTX 4080.

[@KaizenTutorials]

Not as far as I knoow. Especially when using Optix rendering. Optix is optimized to use NVIDIA GPU's to their full potential, so the CPU just limits that effect in this case. I believe in CUDA, adding in your CPU could help, but I'm not 100% sure about that. So the short answer; is there a disadvantage? No, besides slightly longer render times.

[@Foervraengd]

the tip about disabling CPU rendering isnt correct. it depends. i had nvidia 1060, it rendered quicker with cpu and gpu together. cpu alone, 8 hours, gpu alone, 2 hours, cpu and gpu, 1 hour. Now that im on 3060, just gpu renders faster.

[@KaizenTutorials]

[@ODII.]

02:50. I have always rendered with optix, my Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060 and AMD Ryzen 7 4800H with Radeon Graphics both turned on. When you had your AMD turned off, I was a bit conflicted. So I did a test render with the scene I am currently working on. With just the Nvidia turned on, it rendered in 33 seconds but with both on, it rendered in 40 seconds. Maybe this is just applies to the scene but I'd run another test with a different scene in future to see how that works out. But with the aforementioned specs, does it mean my AMD kind of hampers my GPU during rendering?

[@KaizenTutorials]

Yeah your CPU bottlenecks your GPU basically. I've heard that if you have a CPU that outperforms your GPU it does make your renders go faster to have both on, but in almost all cases this is not how it works since most people have a CPU that bottlenecks their GPU.

[@ODII.]

@@KaizenTutorials Oh okay, good to know. Thank you

[@aegisgfx]

​@@KaizenTutorialsthe blender team fixed that but in 3.2 I believe, so if you do test renders now you should see that GPU plus CPU is a little faster than GPU alone. It was a load balancing issue from what I remember reading

Hey man, for some reason I can't seem to get my walls perfectly white in Cycles. Is there a workaroud for this or is it just a disadvantage of Blender?

[@user-rg2dz2nu6l]

The walls are a little grey-ish

[@KaizenTutorials]

The default white color in Blender is not 100% white, so you'll have to make sure the material you add uses a 100% white color. Alternatively this could also be a result of the lighting you're using. If for example you use a sky texture your walls will never be 100% white as a result of the bounce lighting and light absorption.

[@ericfieldman]

Somebody probably said it already but if you select "view" in that second from the top left bar, and then fiddle about with the submenus you should find an option to toggle "quad view" in place of the four windows. I find that to be more convenient with less windows to deal with and less toolbars and menu bars, and it doesn't let you accidently offset the orthographic perspective. Downside is that means I don't think you can change which ortho perspectives you're seeing, but better than me constantly forgetting which views are supposed to be dedicated

[@KaizenTutorials]

Good tip, thanks!

[@ericfieldman]

@KaizenTutorials yeah, I was planning from the start to make something amazing right out the gate, but that kept failing, so I got into the taskmaster mode of trying to find everything in the interface and look it up until I had a very clear idea what it all meant. If you're already good, it's not totally necessary, but I highly recommend it because I've found so many neat tricks like that

[@KaizenTutorials]

It all boils down to testing. In my current setup (4090 and Ryzen 7900X) I have a CPU with integrated graphics too and using both is significantly faster. On my previous setup (3070 and Ryzen 7 3700X) I didn't have integrated graphics but it was still faster. On my setup before that (1060 and Ryzen 5) it was absolutely faster to ONLY use the GPU.

[@KaizenTutorials]

Why?

[@binyaminbass]

yeah dude, why?

[@CrazyAboutLife]

Yeah dude, why?

[@chlbrn]

Yeah, finally someone says you need to disable CPU in optix section when using Cycles to render. Because by disabling CPU, the scene data can all be stored in Vram and your GPU can utilize the feature called RTX acceleration. I am not making that up, this feature came with first generation of RTX card ( RTX 20 series), since RTX cards have specialized units called RT cores (raytracing cores) which can give you a boost in raytracing operations. The only requirement for that to function is to store scene data in Vram. If you check both CPU and GPU, CPU has higher priority so CPU wants data in ram then GPU will not have the access to scene date directly in Vram. That is why you must disable CPU in optix section. Also, this is not only applied to Cycles, if you use other software and other render engine, it is the same situation, just buy a better GPU and disable CPU in render setup if your Vram is sufficient.

[@KaizenTutorials]

Wow! I never knew why you had to disable it. But it’s great to see someone who knows. Thanks for the explanation!

[@chlbrn]

@@KaizenTutorials No problem, I just learned this accidentally. Last year I used Octane for blender as my main render and I saw many people on forum asking developers for CPU support for Octane, then one official developer came out and explained this on forum and since there is no way for GPU to access data from Ram, you just have to disable CPU instead. Probably a big obstacle on hardware level.

[@BrianShewoerer]

So wish I realized this before.. thanks for the detailed information!!

[@aegisgfx]

​​@@BrianShewoerer. Yeah and as with most KZbin information its 100% wrong, blender used to have a problem balancing the slower CPU side of the render with the GPU but they fixed that in one of the previous releases I believe it was 3.2 so now it actually does utilize the CPU and the GPU properly together which if you test it you'll find in almost all cases get a faster render with the CPU enabled. I've done tests myself and I'm getting for sure 10% faster renders with the GPU and CPU enabled

[@NotSoMuchFrankly]

@@aegisgfx "Yeah and as with most KZbin information its 100% wrong," Yikes, be careful with the confrontation. My experience is the opposite and so have some others here if you read the comments. I can think of a few reasons that might be but I'm not going to claim to know. It may depend on factors other that BF simply fixing it for certain HW/scene factors. 🤷🏻

[@bronzekoala9141]

Hybrid rendering on GPU + CPU MIGHT for many people actually be faster for very complex scenes.

[@KaizenTutorials]

Maybe so yeah, but in my testing it definitely isn't. But on lower end pc's you're probably right.

[@NotSoMuchFrankly]

In my experience Kaizen is right. On an RTX 1050Ti I didn't notice a problem (Win 8.1) but on an RTX 3080 (Win 11) OMG just a cube took several times longer (so, a few seconds, but I didn't benchmark a more complex scene)

[@bronzekoala9141]

@@NotSoMuchFrankly It highly depends on your CPU and tilesize. Many people still have their default tilesize set to something very high because this was faster than low tile sizes before CyclesX. Now if the tilesize is 64x64, the performance should be good for both CPU and GPU. I'fe had some scenes taht rendered faster on Hybrid. I have an old GPU though. GTX 1080 and Ryzen 5 1600.

[@christopher-]

Are you actually getting faster renders yourself by disabling the CPU while using Optix? I've been using both CPU and GPU, and just out of curiosity i tried doing a render with only the GPU. Using the exact same settings my render time increased from 12 minutes to about 34. I'm on a bit of a lopsided system though, with a Ryzen 5900X and a 2060 Super, so my GPU doesn't quite keep up in general. I'm sure different scenes would be affected differently but i'm still having a hard time seeing how disabling my CPU would give me shorter render times, even with a more powerful GPU. If you've done tests yourself and found that render times go down overall, i'm curious as to why that is, because it seems completely counterintuitive. I see no reason as to why the CPU would hamper the GPU's performance rather than help.

[@KaizenTutorials]

I agree it seems conterintuitive. If you look at my video on improving render speed I say to use both GPU and CPU. But if you're using Optix specifically, only using the GPU is significantly faster. I've tested it and only using GPU on my system (Ryzen 3700X and 3070Ti) I got about a 6 second faster render without CPU. Probably because my CPU is bottlenecking my GPU. In your case it's probably the other way around!

[@christopher-]

@@KaizenTutorials Right, i looked around a bit and it seems this is an effect of how hybrid rendering is done, at least within Cycles. However, this means that this advice is only actually applicable to those with a CPU bottleneck. I would encourage other people to actually test this out for themselves and not blindly disable the CPU for rendering. Though i'm sure most people tend to have a lesser CPU, since a putting more money into the GPU is generally more favorable. I've simply been stuck with mine because of the ridiculous prices of new graphics cards.
