slow and clumsy ?

I have tested a small scene. One using version 01.05.30 and one using version 1.48.66.

It seems to me that 1.48.66 is much slower than the old version.

Can this be true ?

I have been using this settings for both renders (execpt that I have changed the resolution to 640x480) this setting might be the problem ?

Re: slow and clumsy ?

There are still a number of bugs with version 1.48.66. The one in particular that’s been slowing down your render is the issue with transparency. Any materials with an alpha transparency layer (in your case, the leaves on the trees) slow down the render drastically.

The ASGVis crew is working on a patch to fix this and several other problems the new version has been having. No date has been given for the release of the patch, but hopefully it’ll be sooner than later.

The second image you posted appears to have two light sources, while the first image appears to only have one light source. Why is that?
