Have you tried the IGI Sequence?  Once you determine the output resolution/lighting/and exposure time, the (*.igq) sequence saves a complete frame by frame history in a folder.  

It takes a lot less time than sitting there watching it render each frame one at a time, but it provides the same results you expect based on the single frame you test render in the beginning.  
You only need to double-click the  *.igq file this IGI Output creates to render the images using the settings you chose in the first image trial and desired during the sequence run.  I do this while sleeping.   

I did a quick time test and rendered out 1100 + frames in approximately 7 minutes - 42% of my sequence.  Two characters/3 lights.  35000 poly  15fps

Once the sequence is done you can use Indigo to render it out again at a later date if needed.

The rendering could be more efficient if the characters used a single set of materials instead of a new set for each frame, but it works.  The only thing that could lock you up would be your system sleeping, or running out of drive space for the rendering.

Did you ever try the new 4.0.39 beta?

If you didn't find materials or other limitations it should fly on your GTX980 in GPU only mode.

again, the error happens when Iclone exporting to Indigo. Indigo then is not even running yet.

As far as I understand it.....

Machines :
MSI Gaming Laptop, I7, GTX 1080, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD, 1 TB HD
Acer Predator Helios 300 I7 10750H, 16GB, 1TB SSD, RTX 2070

I'm keeping an eye over it, but it looks very bugged atm, so I'm waiting for the official release!

Did you try to remove all the displacement textures? Does it still freeze after?

It's free and you can install it in parallel with the 3.8 release, IMHO worth a try.

Downloading..

Just tested it in 6.5 issue still exisits

Hi, just upgraded Indigo 3.8 to 4.0 (beta). I've used a lot of background adjustments, so after this upgrade there is no way to add my own image to the backgound. Ok, it's possible, but adjusting at the "advanced" mode, "texture mapping" UV tho whole background seems to be like a mess. At the 3.8 it was adjustable. Is there any way to uninstall 4.0 and use 3.83 instead the new one?
One sollution could be - Indigo plugin sends the background image to the Indigo render and makes necessary adjustments for the background - which could be adjusted by the user.

GPU acceleration won't work anymore in the beta-version.

You can always reinstall the old version in a different directory.
GPU accelleration checkbook was removed since now it's a persistent setting
