CHALLENGE - Show your skills (scene included)

If it wasn't because of cutoffs defaulting @ 0.01 in the shaders and lights, and the adaptivity of the sampler, a 5th bounce glossy with 128 subdivs would trace a 1180591620717411300000 rays, or (128^2)^5, per pixel.

LOL. About the only time I've ever found Math(s) funny.

Eek. (which is too short for a post apparently.)

Hi All,

I didn't download the scene and test it but from the description I got I agree with Lele, at first sight I would try to reduce the raytracing bounces to 2 or 3 and tune the transparent and reflective materials to work with it. I will exclude the glasses and reduce the number of them if they are 3. As well going back to LWF, you can always recreate your reinhard in post eventually. In a word I would say compromise.....

Regards,

Giacomo.

lol using an evermotion scene to work from
they are well known to be borderline unusable!
