I quite like that chunk too!

[mschoennagel]

specs are: dual xeon quad core dell t5500 with 12 gigs of RAM and a Quadro 5000. simulation time was a 4 day weekend, render time was under 24 hours with Arnold.

give it 10 years , this will be realtime.

I just feel like I want to squish my hands into it..

Why is your cup made of Cake?

owesome

NASA called, they want their computer back

News flash - "Earth rises in temperature due to CPU usage of 3D renderings" Read all about it.

@mschoennagel you spent $5000 on your computer?

[orlanduce]

brownie sim?

[JohnyK07]

It looks like a cup made out of bucky balls/neocubes/zen magents or whatever

If it was stiffer but had similar fractures, I'd like it more. Or if it wasn't a "cup", I wouldn't be expecting rigid body physics. THAT ASIDE, I like the tearing and shredding, XSI's Lagoa ICE is really stepping up to the plate, nice sim. How much of the 12 gig of ram (and page file / swap) was actually used during this sim? Do you Remember?
