Tips
1.Getting pop-up saying TDR is too low?
First of all, what is TDR?
TDR (Timeout Detection and Recovery)
Windows system automatically calculates the response time of the graphics card. Sometimes the graphics card is still working, but Windows triggers TDR and turns off D5. After starting D5 Render as administrator, we will modify the default TDR response time and it takes effect after the computer restarts.
How to fix:
1.Run D5 Render as administrator (right click the icon -> Run as administrator)
2.Restart your computer
*If you've never encountered this TDR pop-up, it is suggested that you try the instructions above once so that TDR response time is modified in advance, making D5 work more stably.
2.How to check and update my graphics card driver?
On the lower left of D5's Welcome page, you can see the version number with a question mark. Click on it and the system info panel will pop up where you can see the information of graphics card, driver version, central processing unit, random access memory and system version.
NVIDIA official website offers 2 ways to update graphics card drivers: update the card driver automatically, or search for it manually.
Latest GeForce driver: https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/drivers/
We recommend the first way to download GeForce Experience which helps you with automatic management and update. Other than that, it also provides functions like screenshot and screen recording.
The second method requires you to enter your hardware configuration and filters the graphics card driver. NVIDIA offers various video card drivers for you to choose from.
We recommend the latest version.
3.Can I draw a path where animals run a long way in animation?
Not for now. Path tool supports characters, vegetation and vehicles, and only characters and vehicles on the path have animation effects. In this case, you can select a dynamic animal model and make a keyframe animation for it.
