This idea was born from the Understanding DMC Sampler thread - the issue came to my attention when reading through and seeing how many users (including myself at first) were having difficulty understanding how to optimize their render quality / time. It’s clear that moving beyond the universal 1min…

Also another question; how would the irradiance map fit into this? Importance sampling (that depends on the material reflectance, light brightness etc)? Best regards, Vlado

This looks great to me. Seems a very logical approach where you can see the impact of tweaking a value. I do find it crazy at the moment that changing values can have little/no effect on end results. I just about understand it myself, but trying to explain it to other members of my team is difficult…

[image] Vray RT and "Rendering is not re-entrant" [image] Brilliant response. An image says a thousand words!! lol.

I have to say that I like that approach. Would need some time to get used to it, but I think it would be an improvement.

[image] VRAY and VRAY RT - different HDRI handling Also another question; how would the irradiance map fit into this? Would it work with the multiplier on just the subdivs?

Definitely in favour of the little box telling you the ‘real’ subdivs in the materials etc.

Grant - HAHAHAHAHA that pic made my day! :slight_smile: Couldn’t have asked for a better first response. Vlado - Yes, good point! It can be simplified further to just have one button to control connection between Image Sampler and DMC Sampler. As for the Irradience Map and Important Sampling - wh…

i have to second this, even if i dont know when we will have Vray 3 here. “Making the Complicated Simple” is always welcome!
