  1. That is true for every new card but the 3090, since that is the only card that supports NVLink (they gotta squeeze some money somewhere). NVLink effectively pools the VRAM together which as a result almost doubles the VRAM if you have the same card twice.
  2. Jokes aside, I expect these things to be sold out for months. The demand is going to be insane because many people have been waiting for a worthwhile not overpriced NVidia Card for years now. And this is definitely is.
  3. That is very, very optimistic.

    Dammit, should have known you already did something like this 😄

    Have you ever made one of these plates that balance and bounce a ball on themselves? If not, maybe that's an idea that you could explore... just a thought. I mean something like this:
  6. I think they will make a big deal out of it when it's ready. As many have noticed and as MAXON said, right now it's just a small part of the implementation and it's pretty standalone and doesn't work with a lot of the other parts of the software.
  7. It might be interesting to know which version this license offers and if the maintenance is still running and if yes, for how long.
  8. Nope. You can either pop a vein in your head by fighting with the old UV tools or you can cough up around 150€ for something like RizomUV. Or you can just use Blender for unwrapping, but I don't know how good the tools in Blender are for that.
  9. This is, and has been from the second subscriptions were announced, my biggest gripe. I would really love to pay the monthly fee, but I simply cannot pay an entire year upfront, and the markup for the REAL monthly subscription is just insane.
  10. That is true as long as you assume people pay monthly. Remember, if you want true montly payment you pay almost twice as much! I am pretty sure that most businesses will not take this route, but rather annual subscriptions unless they know their required licenses are fluctuating hard all the time. Yeah I am not happy that I don't have the new UV Tools, but it's simply not worth the money for me. I'll just be using Blender or buy Rizom for that. I think even if I had it, I wouldn't pay it as long as there is no indie version available. I just can't justify spending this amount of money on something that doesn't pay me.
  11. It really is sad. I LOVE paying for a software that I use a lot and that I enjoy. I have never met anybody that had problems with paying for something that they enjoy. But as I am bound to a budget, just like everybody else, there comes a certain point where I cannot justify the amount of money needed which is why my private license is going to be R21 for the foreseeable future.
  12. Wow, what a wall of text! I pretty much agree on everything, especially the nice explanation you made about the userbase dying out. I am sure MAXON knows this as well, so I am wondering what their plan is. As everybody else has indie licenses now (even dang Autodesk) I still don't understand why they don't offer that. All that people are going to do is crack it. If they can't afford it, they will crack it. So why not get some of these people on board with an indie license AND you bind them to your software this way. Right now Blender is pretty much just picking up everybody that doesn't want to use cracked software or has access through school.
  13. Yeah that was a weird move indeed. The special naming with S22 did make sense for me if the R23 was called R22 and not R23.
  14. That is a major improvement! What I'd say is still missing are some minor imperfections on black countertop. The reflection should look perfect, but not AS perfect. It's literally the perfect mirror right now. Some very minor bump and roughness variation should go a looong way there.
  15. https://frostsoft.blogspot.com/2012/01/vertex-normal-tool-plugin_80.html Maybe this guy?
  16. No need to get rude here. It's just a thread title.
  17. Wow that is cool, love the Post you've done on this! Why is everybody driving the same car though 🤔 I have a feeling the look was inspired by this, maybe 😛 ?
  18. Nope, don't think so unless I misunderstood him! Not talking about all the major carving, more the super fine circular material detail.
  19. That texturing work is something else, especially the milling. So convincing!
  20. Pretty sure they're just trying to cover their own butts there, considering they probably really just don't know or haven't gotten any information from MAXON yet.
  21. Instagram4D with a great deal of influencer shitposting...
  22. It's performing WAY better. Thanks @Igor! It's lightning fast now. Doesn't even take a second to load a new site after a click, whether it's the frontpage or a thread. Sad that the other theme didn't work out, but there seems to be something inherently broken with it.
  23. Yup, Forum still loads all the content, nothing is clickable, then a couple of seconds later the gallery images pop up and it's usable. Interestingly enough, the same happens in this thread and in every other thread. Most of it loads, but there is SOMETHING that takes very long to finish and during this time you can't interact with the site in any way.
