Chief-007

Follow up question, are they the exact same thing?, the only difference being Physically based uses GPU and raytrace uses CPU? or is there a significant difference between physically based and ray trace?

Hi guys, Very stupid question. I am new to rendering with CA, I am trying to use my GPU(NVIDIA 5070) instead of my CPU when using the ray tracing feature. I have read a few forums suggesting going into settings-> graphics card -> High performance. I have gone into the NVIDIA app as well as the control panel and made sure chief was added. I checked my video card status and it says the 5070 is being used. However, once I start ray tracing and open up control panel, it shows that only CPU is being used when ray tracing. I need to know if Ray tracing is CPU only or if I am doing something wrong and using my GPU IS possible.

Hello, I was working on a model and ran into an issue. I have 2 rooms with different material finishes, when I added a doorway I realized half of the doorway took the ceiling material of room A and the other took the material of Room B. When I spray paint it so its all material B in the doorway, room A ceiling changes (material is connected to room ceiling). Is there a way where the doorway only takes the material of room B? Why does it take half of the material from room A and the other from Room B? Thanks in advance.

Hi guys, I am new to chief here and ran into an issue. I don't know exactly how wall intersections work, but I managed to seamlessly connect this curved wall to the straight wall on one end but not the other. I am trying to use the "CONNECT WALLS" tool but nothing is happening. Is there a setting in the "OPEN OBJECT" tool I need to select or am I just drawing the curved wall incorrectly?
