      one other issue i mentioned above is when you get that texture streaming error where its red and need to increase teh pool BE VERY careful as it will give this error too
      i have 6GB card with 1.9 gb shared and i have no errors now at 2000 poolsize
      hit tilde
      r.Streaming.PoolSize 1
      ( run your project and see how under it is and go a few hundred more like if its avging 1500 set to 1800 or 2000 )
      to do that
      r.Streaming.PoolSize 2000
      be warned this is for my 1660 super and if youhave less vram your going to have to do things like in settings and scale back to low and keep the pool less
      only other option then becomes MORE vram

    So far, these videos have been AWESOME! I like this one and full disclosure, I do have a 3090. I thought sure why not try a huge open landscape with world partition. Then I tried adding the water feature and my VRAM shot to the 24GB area and pretty much stays there. Luckily just trying things out but can't wait for that feature to be optimized because when it works it looks great! I am still learning and these videos are very nice to have.

    Great vid! :)
    Learning optimization techniques can save a lot of time and nerves for almost any UE user. I'm using an old gear, GTX960 4GB, Phenom II x955 and 8GB ram and I can't recall when my last crash was (expect when I tried to import metahuman ^^). Trick is to optimize all of your assets, even those from marketplace or megascans (channel packing, for example, is not set up by default), since they are often designed to look as good as possible for marketing reasons, so their materials are just too expensive for many uses. 4k textures - only when they are really needed, so in my case - almost never. For highest quality cinematics only: sure, a lot of Vram is definitely required, but as for now, you definitely can make beautiful games with an old rig like mine without big troubles, so to anyone demotivated - don't give up! :)

    • @WilliamFaucher
      @WilliamFaucher  Před 3 lety +4

      Totally agreed! That said, optimization is a time consuming process, and time is a luxury in production. In Film, we rarely have time to optimize things perfectly. Game development can go on for years at a time. A film production does not often last nearly that long. At least not the VFX/CGI side of things!

    I imported a 8k landscape and tried to render out a quick sample of the scene. Each time i hit the render button, it gave me that same error.

      @tazwinsdevchannel Před rokem

      Has enabling Virtual Textures had any downsides for you? For me all of the textures became grainy/noisy whenever I moved my camera, although it could just be because of my low resolution when trying it.

    • @DannyNetwirk
      @DannyNetwirk Před rokem

    All great points and I have being doing of some these already like keeping my eye on the GPU usage and reducing screen percentage. Also a big help has been putting high memory usage assets like characters/crowds into a visibility layer that I toggle on\off in the sequencer as well as for during editing. This reduced the frequency of UE4 crashing a lot. Even with using a 3090 my UE4 still crashes. Wonder if I can use my old 2080 RTX along side the 3090 RTX in sort of SLI mode, last I heard it was not supported? I will try DLSS and virtual texturing moving forward. Great channel and topics covered!

    • @WilliamFaucher
      @WilliamFaucher  Před 3 lety

      So from what I've heard, DLSS doesn't work with the Movie Render Queue, unfortunately. Have you considered trying to change your TDR value? By default TDR is set to a short value of about 2 seconds, if a GPU process takes longer than that, it can reset the graphics driver and cause a crash. you can read about it here. It's a document for substance painter, but the same applies to Unreal:

    Thought I would throw this out there, Opera GX has memory/cpu/network controls so you can choose how much of each it's allowed to use regardless of how many tabs you are running. Just know that if you don't give it enough cpu power then 4k videos will be choppy.

    Hello) I was wondering why this have been happening in my project on GTX 1050 TI. This video was helpful to made it clean. And now i start to thinking about new GPU. Theoretically, i could buy something like RTX 3050, 3060 with my budget. Considering the 12 VRAM in the second card i would love to buy 3060. And what you're think? Or maybe it would be better to save some money, in order to get 3060 Ti with 8 Gb, but with +20% better performance? Because, honestly, I think that in my case 3060 is the best choice if i want Nvidia card for work, and RT.

  • @peterbikki2758
    @peterbikki2758 Před 3 lety

    One more huge VRAM spacer i believe is to use "High Resolution" tiled images (lots of tiles!), it basically crops your image into smaller ones, meaning that you never have to use huge framebuffers. I could render out 8K images with this on shots that were GPU-crashed on 2,5K.

    • @WilliamFaucher
      @WilliamFaucher  Před 3 lety +1

      It can certainly work in a bind! Although I am generally a bit reluctant to use it due to the artifacts it can create with screenspace effects and motion blur due to the tiling. But yeah if you're screwed in production it's awesome to be able to at least get the frames out!

    i tried everything and it still crashes before even finishing the first frame, i have an rtx 2070 super and managed to render 4 of my sequences without any problems no crashing at 4k with raytracing but there's this one scene that crashes everytime even tho i have virtual textures, a higher tdr delay and all my programs closed on an i9 9900k 32gb ram. Now when i load my project my gpu is using 7.5/8gb by default even tho i'm not doing anything and i have my viewport set very low windowed any workaround? i didn't try a lower than 100 screen percentage but i really want the quality to match every sequences

    • @WilliamFaucher
      @WilliamFaucher  Před 3 lety

      It's hard to troubleshoot issues via youtube comments, but I would suggest toning down the ScreenPercentage just to get an idea and narrowing down the source of the problem. If turning it down helps, then you know your scene maybe a bit too heavy. If lowering screenpercentage DOESN'T help, then you have something in your scene causing it to crash, from there it's a matter of removing certain aspects of the scene one by one until you get a successful render, and moving forward from there. Render wrangling is an artform of its own!

    hey Will just want to add its a good practice to always delete stuff that isn't needed for the render or if it is a very long render use blueprints / keys to hide those stuffs we will no longer include in the shot
    for example a forest landscape cinematic with about 14 trees in the shot only, it is safe to delete all the other ones (working on a clone map of course)

    I'm getting those crash errors without even trying to render.
    Have always kept an eye on CPU and GPU usage making sure that all background activity is at a minimum.
    Yet my RTX 3070 ti has been crashing off and on lately. Especially since the latest update.
    Reverting back to an older one didn't do the trick at the time since quite possibly the working version I had was even older.
    Will try this trick of yours with the Virtual Texturing. Thanks!

As soon as I press render local/remote on the movie renderque, it crashes right as it begins to render its first frame. I thought maybe it was the first frame being to shaky so I followed your vid on fixing the 1st frame error but that didn't work either.
    The real weird thing is, rendering in the render sequence the old fashioned way worked fine, was done in about 5 mins. Can you help me with this pls, I worked really hard on this project :/
