Hi all.
Does anybony knows how to set Lightwave renders for a dual processor machine? I know LW can be optimized for this settings, but I dont know how  Is it possible to turn this as a default setting? Tnx |

I believe its the 'Multithreading' option under the render options panel.. this should also be saved when you exit lightwave so next time you start it up it should still be on 2 or whatever you set it to..
If Im wrong about this, please correct me someone. good luck Matt

another thing, Ive read some posts about that you might want to try a higher setting than you actually have.. ie. if you have a 2 processor system, try setting the multithreading option to 4. That has made some improvement for some people I believe.
