Hello
I'm 3D Designer and Modeller
I've noticed that when i use iClone , even the latest version
It's very slow and sluggish even when the scene is totally empty! when it's empty it's about 20-30fps
and it's extremely slow when using Character Creator or daz3d characters even with reduced textures and polygons
while in other software like Unreal Engine 4 and Unity and DAZ3D Viewport are much faster

My specifications are :
AMD Ryzen 3900x , MSI Gaming Edge Wifi x570 , 64GB DDR4 G.Skill Trident Z Neo 3200Mhz , XPG GAMMIX S11 Pro 1TB NVME SSD , MSI Geforce 2080ti Ventus OC 

4K 55" Monitor : 3840x2160@60Hz using HDMI

I'm using the Latest windows 10 build 2004 with latest updates , and latest nVIDIA Drivers
and nothing like Anti-Virus or anything is running in the background

Please help

Hey Peter!

I'm having a similar issue. Iclone runs great most of the time, but if I add a lot of special effects to the scene, it crashes more than I would like. I went into the Nvidia Control Panel like you said (I just downloaded the most recent driver), and wasn't sure if these settings were correct or if I'm using my graphics card correctly.

Thanks for your time,
Stephen

No , I didn't customize any of the nVidia Control Panel driver settings at all , but i'll try the solution that you've mentioned , thanks for the help

Hi Stephen

Your screenshot shows that iClone is using the Global Setting. However, if you have customised the Global Setting then that will naturally affect iClone also. Try going to the Global tab as shown below and ensure your Global Setting is set to default (it will look similar to the screenshot below). If in doubt you can click the "Restore" button and this will set your Global Settings back to default.

Hi Peter,

I tried the solution you mentioned with the nVidia Control panel, but I can't seem to find the MSI DEforce 2080ti and the "application controlled " default. The speed remains the same.

It seems to me that the more plugins you add to iClone and Character creator, the slower they get. For example, it takes me 5 minutes to load a scene in iClone now after the latest update (I also bought the Skin Gen Premium plugin). On top of that, I have to wait a little too long for practically every move I make in those programs. It seems iClone, in spite of all its priceless features, is getting seriously bloated.

And I don't have a slow computer. I have an 24 cores AMD Threadripper with an nVidia Titan RTX with 24 GB of VRAM.

Hello Peter , Unfortunately , none of the things you suggested helps iClone be faster , it's still slow as it is , while other software like Unreal Engine 4 and Unity are so much faster

First: Are you using the licensed version of iClone 7.8? 
Second: If you have an extra m.2 SSD you may try to reformat then install just iClone 7.8 using the reallusion hub. It worked for me. 

I'm using licensed iClone 7.72 , but i'll update it from the Reallusion Hub
and my m2 NVME SSD is still new only used for month
is there a big difference in performance between 7.72 and 7.8 ?
