I have one gig of memory in my pc. What should be the setting in my prefference menu ? It is now set to 256. Should it be higher ? Any one knows what’s the best setting ?
The FAQ>General section here at ZBC has a topic on Performance Tips. I’d recommend looking at that for explanations of the various settings.
As for that particular one, I’d probably try 756. That will leave 256 free for your OS and any other programs that might be running in the background. There’s no hard and fast rule here, though, because everyone uses his computer differently. One person might shut down all unnecessary processes before starting ZBrush, and so be able to have a higher setting. Another person might keep Photoshop running at the same time, which would require a lower setting.
Thanks for your reply. I’ll try these settings and will also check the performance tips…
