Hi, I’m not sure if this is Autodesk related issue or vray but PFlow is apparently nieither instancing particles nor does it support VRayProxies. I need to render 360000 particles (Which isnt much for todays strandards I think) with a 5k poly mesh each. I could propably reduce the mesh size more bu…

I am not sure if this could help you: http://jokermartini.com/reducing-pflow-render-times/

[image] Groove line problem Is there a way to do this? There was a script somewhere that could place instances of a given object at the location of each PFlow particle - perhaps it could do the job? Best regards, Vlado

[image] Unlock Medit and renderer setting during rendering I am not sure if this could help you: http://jokermartini.com/reducing-pflow-render-times/ Hi, thanks for the link, I actually was on that exact site already. It is not really the preparing step which takes ages, I can’t get it to actu…

[image] VrayDistance texture - surface borders detection option I somewhere saw something you or one of your colleagues posted about the possibility of having VRay instance the particles in a future 3.0 service pack? Yes, however it is not ready for use yet - will be in a month or two. Best r…

[image] On another topic Yes, however it is not ready for use yet - will be in a month or two. Best regards, Vlado This would be so awesome. It’s really a pain to render particles with max/VRay. On another note - I don’t know if this is at all possible: Maybe VRay could, at render time, “int…

Might be worth looking into the prt, krakatoa and frost workflow for this? It does a tonne of uprezzing of particle systems and allows you an easy way to swap a particle to a custom mesh with lots of variation options…

[image] 3ds max 2014 and gamma correction A simplified version of that for VRay (really simplified, really only maybe uprezzing) shouldn’t be that hard to code, right? On the contrary, it is quite non-trivial to code this (in a good way, at any rate). Best regards, Vlado

Renting could be an option. But there is also the fact that I am not very well versed with TP/Krakatoa et cetera, so softwareskills matter, too. ANd yes my particles are moving, needed a windy turbulent image at the end, so no way around running an animation :frowning:

Yes, however it is not ready for use yet - will be in a month or two.
