Wonder if he splurges on the 40 - series cards from NIVIDIA and boosts this. Anyone know his current setup?

iirc 8 PCs with 3090s

The power consumption of 8 4090s alone is absurd, not to speak about the initial investment which is also huge even if he sells all the 3090s at a decent price. I hope he does it but I won't hold my breath waiting for it to happen.
Interesting nvidia is boasting double the performance of the 3090 with the 4090, hopefully he upgrades. Maybe in the best case scenario it lowers development time. But I doubt it.
Yeah, reportedly one 4090 draws 450-500W at peak, 450 * 8 is a whopping 3600W. Man is gonna blow every fuse.

90.
The 40XX series gives a big performance boost,
but I hope he doesn't think of improving the graphics again and adding Ray-tracing to animations, for example.
As someone who understands a little about electrics: 4090s will consume a lot of electricity. And if he has a lot of working machines, then he will still have to change the wiring in the house (weak wires can just catch fire) and redo the distribution of electricity. I don't know how it is in Sweden, but in my country it is forbidden to install fuses in households with a capacity of more than 40 amperes.

The numbers are concerning, and with DPCs self professed lack of ability to keep himself reigned in it wouldn't come as a surprise to me if the only update we get in 2023 is episode 9, the dude's a family man, December is brimming with social obligations. We probably are in the timeline where we get episode 9 in Jan '23 then episode 10 in 2024 the way this is going.
I wonder where in sweden he lives. In the south the prices on electricity is enormous compared to up here in the north because we are selling so much to the continent and mismanagement of nuclear power for political reasons etc etc. Whatever, its academic in any case. Theres fearmongering here every day about an energy crisis coming this winter. If he is down south his electric bill is probably like 15-20k sek a month already.
It will be ironically funny if this leads to a fire in which Dr PinkCake dies90.

One dev said that his electricity bill is almost 700€/month right now (I think electricity is even more expensive in Germany).
I think he doesn't have as much hardware as DPC does though
Up north where I live it's a bit more manageable, but I can bet on that he's not really starving for cash.The numbers are concerning, and with DPCs self professed lack of ability to keep himself reigned in it wouldn't come as a surprise to me if the only update we get in 2023 is episode 9, the dude's a family man, December is brimming with social obligations.

Don't forget that not all animations are created equal. A 10s animation is a lot less posing and rendering than a 60s one. And DPC alluded to doing more long ones before.I wonder if DPC is able to push more animations per week..? He did process 20 animations/week at one point so why not again?
In such a scenario, and you can only save one or the other, do you save DPC or his computers which contains his work?

Depends how close to an update, today his work, immediately after ep 9 release DPC.

If you saved him, he would throw himself back into the flames to save his business. Might as well save the PCs at this point

Another nice write up but the only thing that I would consider "good" is the fact that it relatively close to a release. If it is a December release it will still be nine months for a single episode to be playable. At the current rate the second half of the game will likely be in development for close to a decade. That's a ridiculously long time for one game, I think.Numbers two weeks in a row! Christmas has come early!
DPC completed 198 static renders and 9 animations this week. This brings his overall average up to ~149 statics and 7.5 animations per week since the Interlude launched. We also have revised target numbers, ~4875 for statics and 280-320 for animations; that's a net win for us as the tiny increase in statics is well worth the 25 fewer animations expected (on average - actual results may still vary). Here are the charts:
Thanks to the lowered targets and a slight increase in animation rendering, we're now on target to complete animations around the start of December. With a bit of luck (DPC did say there are up to 40 more animations to pose so it might be fewer) I think we could make up enough ground to permit a (late) November release. So all in all I'd say the news is good, though we still have a while to wait. We'll just have to keep our fingers crossed.You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
For me personally, the extended dev times of the updates won't be worth it. I'm in these things for the stories but to me it looks like DPC's mind set has switches to quantity over quality. I wont know until I play it of course but the outlook for this is grim in my book.
