I started it around noon, then did some running around until about 3, Blender crashed after I left. (My system uptime was over 60 days at that point, so that’s my fault)

I started it again from a couple frames before it crashed, an hour later I went on a date and got back around 9. As I was about to leave I saw a text from my roommate saying that we lost power at 4:30.

When the power came back at 10ish I started it again.

Only about 2000 frames to go out of the 14472 frames in the render. And at about 1.25 seconds per frame, It shouldn’t be too much longer.

If I didn’t have to have this done before tomorrow (I’ve got a couple projects that need to finish this week) I would have just had round 3 go while I was sleeping and dealt with any potential problems (like another crash) in the morning.

        That went smooth as silk with a render time of less than 0.1 seconds for every frame

        I would just throw a small 10 second clip from it right here in the comments just for some reason this instance (blahaj) doesn’t let me 😿

        I’d have to upload it somewhere else

        The instance I’m normally on (slrpnk) is down due to a sudden hardware failure a couple days ago and won’t be back until December

            I didn’t realize catbox was allowing uploads again, I’m happy to see that they are!

            So here’s the last 10 seconds of the 10 minute render

            I wanted to make little intermission clips for the tv show/anime nights with my friends so I made a few. 10 minutes for a regular intermission every 2 episodes, 5 minutes for the delay from the start of the hour before the showings start, and 10 seconds to show off the animation.

            The main render was done to be used as the screen for a larger scene (That I’m still working on) but this part was the really long one (the main scene will basically be the backdrop with a green screen for the CRT)
