Radeon ProRender's 3.5.2 Interactive Render Setting | New Fast Setting!

Taking a look at the new RPR 3.5.2 for Blender! This new setting makes viewport rendering much faster and you can use it for final renders!

[@ChinchillaBONK]

Practically the only content creator who talks about AMD Prorender and Blender rendering using AMD GPUs. Thanks!

[@djtutorialscgi]

I try!

[@FluxStage]

Really excited for AMD to get up to Nvidias Optix standard one day!

[@djtutorialscgi]

Yeah! Me too.

[@mnomadvfx]

IMHO they can't ever get to that with ProRender. Optix is not a renderer - it's just an RT/PT focused CUDA framework. Unfortunately most of the commercial renderers have taken that as their model for creating GPU backends and only Redshift so far has actually implemented an AMD HIP based backend. Cycles X has HIP running already and HIP with hardware accelerated RT in experimental level code possibly releasing in v3.5 (but I would not get your hopes up 😥). IMHO what is needed to make AMD breakthrough is a vendor µArch agnostic GPU backend - the new GPU SYCL support in Intel's Embree v4 is a good start to that. Many RT/PT implementations use Embree and it gaining a stable SYCL path would be a huge win for GPU agnostic RT rendering.

Blender has a bias towards nvidia

[@osissmpktmc]

AMD are just too lazy to make good framework for blender, even Intel GPU have released a better framework than AMD in just a month

[@kingghidorah8106]

​@@intifadayuriyes, Blender has stopped supporting OpenCL, hasn't been updated since Blender 3.0.

[@FOSS365]

Appreciate the quick look. As in all new features it is a bit buggy for me ATM but I'm sure they will have it solid enough in no time. I was surprised at how fast it. Nice to have a few instant interactive modes available in Blender now.

[@djtutorialscgi]

Definitely. In the past it was pretty rough but now it’s much more usable.

[@FOSS365]

@@djtutorialscgi I did find that if you turn on clamping it eliminated the shadow defects you were talking about when moving around.

[@djtutorialscgi]

@@FOSS365 oh very nice. I’ll pin that.

[@AlexiEffects]

Hey brotha. I've been a big C4d user for a few years now. In your humble opinion, how smooth would a transition be from C4d to Blender? Your tutorials are making me curious (and strangely enough I find that Blender runs more smoothly on my laptop). I'm intrigued by the opensource nature of it, the grease pen (among other tools), and the wide library of community run resources, but I'm hesitant because I don't want to just "learn it all over again". Proud of what you're doin, my dude. You've always been a talented person. 👍

[@djtutorialscgi]

Hey Troy! Thanks so much for the compliments you are very kind. I believe there are some addons and some presets that make Blender function relatively identical to c4D so maybe check some of that out. Blender foundation has been working towards altering how Blender works to match industry standards more closely so transitioning is a lot easier now than it has ever been. The thing with Blender is that since it’s open source, there are a ton of addons and things that can make it do almost anything which is a plus but it also makes the learning curve quite steep. There are some things that aren’t quite as good, like fluid sims being very slow, and the sculpting isn’t as efficient with RAM usage as we want it to be but it’s definitely on the way to being much better since Epic Games, Apple and AMD are pouring money in. I would recommend checking out Grant Abbitt’s YT channel for some beginner stuff just to get your feet wet.

[@Project.09]

it crashes everytime i use it. currently using a rx580

[@jnjuice1690]

I was wondering if you were also able to measure how fast the renders are on a 6800 or 6800xt card. I noticed you were using an rtx3090, correct me if I am wrong.

[@djtutorialscgi]

I’d love to. Please tweet at AMD and tell them to send me a GPU :)

[@Slickstaff_Stainpants]

just using it now.. and yeah super fast but in interactive mode its like the gamma is turned way up. In Final mode it works so nicely. Gotta hand it to AMD for this.

[@djtutorialscgi]

Yeah. It’s definitely getting to a very nice usable point. There are still quite a few things not fixed that really should be but they are making strides in some of these areas

[@chrisx2ds]

when I click the link, the 3.5.2 version only come with source code, can you compile a windows version and upload the file?

[@60tiantian]

thanks~man

[@djtutorialscgi]

You’re welcome!

[@senopatict]

RDNA2 RX6500 can run it? HIP render, Pro Render

[@MarcoMazzotta633]

i installed the latest version of amd prorender and the latest of blender, but when i go to the viewport shading, it crashes.

[@djtutorialscgi]

I am having the exact same issue. I can’t even use the addon right now. I sent a few posts to the developers on this and followed up today so hopefully we can get this resolved soon.

[@blender_3d]

@@djtutorialscgi Same problem. It just crashes. I like RPR, but with each new version it's getting harder to use. Bugs, lags, crashes, and now it doesn't work at all. Sad

[@djtutorialscgi]

@@blender_3d Yeah- I reported this as well. They said its an issue with Nvidia drivers so I dunno....

[@bubulcumcum98]

bro sry out of topic, i have a question. Does Octane render compatible with blender version 3.2 or above?

[@djtutorialscgi]

Octane has its own build you have to use but I am not sure which version it’s running. Most larger engines wait to deploy their engines on newer versions of software to maintain stability. Also, since I use the free version, their updates lag about a half year behind or so.

[@bubulcumcum98]

@@djtutorialscgi ok, bcs i want to use the free version as well, but my blender version is 3.2

[@user-wj2ez2zo3m]

How do I turn on hip?

[@djtutorialscgi]

Not sure… fir ProRender specifically i am not sure how it is implemented. I have Nvidia.

[@lightweightportugal3925]

Thank you for your recommendation. I get a pixelated renders, I could not figure it on how to change the render quality. Im on a mac book pro MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2018) 2.6 GHz 6-Core Intel Core i7

[@djtutorialscgi]

Jump into the discord and post your question there. Someone might be able to help out

[@jimofmarseille]

It seems that this interactive setting is not present on Mac/Metal.

[@djtutorialscgi]

Aw bummer :(

[@jimofmarseille]

@@djtutorialscgi I read somewhere that this interactive quality was using Vulkan.

[@Creativecutx]

I have a rx6500m 4gb gpu...will it work good?

[@djtutorialscgi]

I don’t think so, no

[@mikoajneronowicz582]

Has anyone had success running this addon on a Fedora 39 system? Unfortunately I guess it actually only works on Ubuntu as far as Linux family systems are concerned.

[@openwoundproductions1662]

I haven't been able to get the latest version working in an ubuntu based distro. Not really sure what the issue is.

[@mikoajneronowicz582]

@@openwoundproductions1662 Ok. I remember that on Ubuntu I was able to get it to work. Maybe you don't have HIP installed. But that should not be the case. These solutions for professionals from AMD are a joke. It's a shame, because I'm very much a fan of this company. I wish Nvidia had some real competitor.

[@AndyMadmax-ps5jb]

i cant hello nice vid, i'm on quality settings and cant find the interactive mode do i have to activate or install other things ?

[@djtutorialscgi]

I read another user’s comment that there may be a GPU limitation. What GPU are you using?

[@withtail7]

Only works for ray tracing GPU?

[@djtutorialscgi]

Hmm… not sure about that. Do you not have the option?

[@withtail7]

@@djtutorialscgi I have RX470 then I update it to ProRender 3.5.2 but the quality option still same look like low medium high full

@@withtail7 Yes, same here. Interestingly, I had Hackintos on my Pc and with my RX580 I could use Metal render on Hackintosh and it was really faster than on Windows.
