Distance maps

[M.Max]

I found this interesting tutorial that go through using distance map in a clever way (it is using Corona here but the same can be achieved using V-Ray too)

Yup. Also might be interesting to know that the VRayDistanceTex will be up to 10x faster in future versions of V-Ray.

10x faster??
In this case also?
VrayMetaball + VrayDistance map: very slow

[vlado]

Yes, it's considerably faster in this case too.
