First 1.5 render

[mmikee]

This was a fast project testing some of the new features.



C&C welcome.

sweet, but is it me or does everything lean to the left?

[kimgar]

heh, it's not just you, i get a weird feeling of being on a boat from that picture....but the render is nice, very clean, almost too clean...

[jacksc02]

i think the right side is falling away..........

[Neilg]

Did you camera correct and then change your mind about the angle?


Nice render - good to see the sun/sky being used outside of a metal teapot/torus test.

Do you think a 1.5 it's faster (or slower) than older version of Vray (1.47.03)?

[percydaman]

nice job. did you use the 2 sided material for the lamps and plants?

[Clifton Santiago]

Nice render. Yeah, it does look like there is a FFD 2x2x2 slanting everything to the left

[mmikee]

Yes, camera correction then view change. I did overlook it. Ill call it
a boat.
Two sided mat on the shades. sun and sky, of course. Reinhard color
mapping.

The render time for this was under 20 minutes.
No TLC, just a quick (and lopsided ) test scene. Mostly I wanted to
see how the sun/sky looked in an interior.

Thanks for the replies,
Mike

Have you tried a version using the Vray camera with a little distortion, just to see if it really gets that photographic feel?

[jodestroy]

nice job Mike

Nice job Mike,

we try to acheive the kind of shadows on the carpet with a blurry effect ....
how did you do that?

thanks a lot

What setting did you use for the Reinhard color mapping?

I am trying to get my head around the (pseudo) Linear workflow: that is using a colour correct modifier on all colour swatch based materials, having the 3dsmax gamma set to 2.2, and using vrays Gamma colour mapping with 1/.4545. Just when I got my head around all these settings and now we have Reinhard and real life cameras with f-stops and shutter speeds.

[mmikee]

I used a burn value of .75. I lowered all light values and used 2.2 curve. I also turned the gamma setting down to about .5 I think.

Shadows : I increased the size multiplier for the sun. I also put the vraysky into an output map with a 2 or 3 multipier to compensate for the very low sun settings.(I used a standard camera). I have been testing the physical camera, and have had much better results.
