Title: Thrown junk robot
Post by: listy on 2013-06-15, 08:48:30
Hi all!

This is my test render using Corona alpha v5.

I am amazed with the rendering speed. Even on old dual core machine, plus i had another rendering process at the same time, so the 5.5 hours could be cut down by half.
I spent one hour to convert all the materials from MentalRay and setting up the scene. Last time with Alpha v4 i had many crashes, especially with the Corona AO mtl.

This is HDRI lit, with one corona light. Real DOF. PT+HD Cache. Bucket rendering 6 AA subdivs, 2 passes.

PS.
Bad English.

You shouldn't use bucket rendering. It's slower. We just forgot to remove it ;)

Why is it slower? I used it because it's easy to see the final result (no need to wait whole scene to be clean), and i just set up scene to 2 passes and autosave. I love bucket rendering :3

I didn't know bucket rendering is usable at all. :)

It's unfinished, and slower. That's all i can say. Progressive rendering will get you same result, but faster, and you see entire image from the start, not just few buckets. And you you want to limit your area of interest, you can use render region feature.

Ok, thank you for advice! I will use progressive next time. But i can't find how to set region rendering in Corona VFB.

You can not at the moment, but you can set it in the common tab of render settings and then adjust in viewport. I hotkeyed set region to Ctrl+R so the process is quite quick.

actually bucket rendering is not faster or slower than progressive

I could send you several examples where it is. Maybe not  rays/s-wise, but definitely with worse results no matter what the settings are.
