Pause and resume renderings Cycles X

[melvi]

@Kologe

There’s work being done currently to introduce such pause/resume rendering functionality in Cycles iirc

Thats great news. Do you know if there is a possible version where this would be added like 3.4 or 4.0 because I have a feeling it won’t be anytime soon.

@Kologe

With regard to the other question, it’s probably Cycles. In his sketchbook-thread, Ian made this statement:

@Mrdodobird

I haven’t been able to get the same quality in eevee just yet- although even I can’t, I think it’s reaching a point where I wouldn’t mind trading a bit of realism for way faster renders, yeah

Note however this quote dates back to April 2019. Things might have changed since then, so take it with a grain of salt.

greetings, Kologe

@Sleeper

It’s all cycles- although I’d do the test renders in eevee, and a lot of times they looked so similar I had a hard time telling them apart The only real reason I went with cycles was I used a lot of emissive materials, and those don’t work well without a high res luminance volume. - Ian Hubert

From one of his replies to the comments on the video.

Thanks a lot guys. Really appreciate the info. That animation video is really breathtaking.
I am wondering if he is using Cycles X now or has switched to ECycles or Kcycles,
