what are the limitations of rendering?

[SMWpalkia]

What is your question?

ive been trying to render an hour long chart for the past few days which my friends have done with no issue despite there being a lot of characters loaded. however whenever i try it, the render always freezes (not lags) at random points and just stops working. and before you to tell me to wait longer, ive kept my computer on over night during a freeze and didnt make any progress. ive even tried lowering the fps and resolution and it still happens

what is the encoder you are using

[JordanSantiagoYT]

that's due to unresolvable ram issues. the best you could do is try turning on "force off gc while rendering" in the debug menu, but good luck not having your pc explode

if you dont get a responce within a week you know what happened. would setting garbage collection to 0 do the same thing?

[JordanSantiagoYT]

Yes and no

Gets rid of useless shit that's not gonna be used in the current state

removes unused stuff from RAM, basically reduces RAM usage
