My Mac Pro has a ATI Radeon HD 5770 GPU installed in it, I’m guessing that an Nvidia driver won’t benefit me whatsoever?

Could you recommend an affordable Nvidia GPU that I should consider upgrading to in the future?

Thanks for your reply.

There are also too many lines in my AI export file that don’t appear in my C4D render preview, what are the correct settings should I be using in my export?

Thanks

I found that it’s because the animation was baked.

I’m trying to apply the effects to my model ballon but I can’t replicate the settings of the Dynamics Body Tag that’s applied to your balloon object.

Where I copy your tag to mine the icon looks different and some of the settings appear to be deactivated but not on the tag that I’ve copied (see attached), why is that?

That helps massively, thank you so much.

Can I ask, how is the material from the String object applied to the spring effect? I can see how the spring is attached to the balloon and the null but don’t understand how the string object is applied?

Where do I see if I’m using the CPU or the GPU?
To me it looks like I’m using the CPU because when I click Preferences > Previews > GPU Information, next to Ray-tracing CPU is selected with (GPU not available – incompatible device or CUDA driver) next to it.
I can’t select ‘GPU’ from the list either?

This is a confusing subject!

Will my GPU (ATI Radeon HD 5770 with 1GB of GDDR5 memory, PCI Express 2.0) not work with multiprocessing?

If I turn off multiprocessing am I not using OpenGL either?

This helped me get the Quicktime presets into AME, so thanks for that.
But, when I’ve imported ProRes 422 HQ Presets from Adobe and try to use them I get “Preset Error: Incompatible Video Codec found in preset. Preset load failed”.

Any ideas to fix it?

I’ve managed to open the file, how can you make the words so that stay the colour that they are spoken? ie. make then stay white when they move on to the next word?
