I created a test file from big project I am working on…The original file has tons of textures/images located at different areas of my computer.
I took my master file… did a file save as and named it a different name. I’m now ready to pack these files, because I am going to take this whole file to a different computer for rendering purposes.
Here are my questions
-
Does rendering slow down/ or perhaps speed up, if you leave the textures packed in the file (versus unpacking)? I was thinking about leaving everything just packed in this blendfile when I transfer it to this other computer.
-
When you pack textures into a blendfile… does blender essentially make a copy of each texture file and leave the originals where they were at on your hard drive?
I just don’t want to mess anything up on my master file when packing textures, ect into this duplicate file.
