Hardware / New workstation :New Threadripper 3960X or 3970X or Ryzen 3950X

« on: 2019-11-10, 09:33:50 »

Okay finally time to upgrade my workstation. I was waiting and waiting for 7nm AMD and here it is. Now the problem which one to go with.
For me it’s not only rendering but lot of modeling in 3dsmax and multitasking (rendering in Corona and Redshift, zbrush sculpting at the same time etc.) Also cloth and particle simulation. So I need one powerful workstation that can do it all :slight_smile:
Is it worth getting the 32 core beast 3970x or a bit overkill and go with 24 cores as it’s 100mhz (3.8Ghz) base clock faster which is important in 3dsmax as it’s one core app.
I’m not sure about Ryzen 3950x as I read that it will require water cooling and because if Threadripper size I assume air is still good and quieter option.
Whats your take an all this?

[Max] I need help! / matte shadow on white background

« on: 2018-04-10, 18:53:05 »

Ok might sound strange but client wants a render with matte shadow alpha but on white background. I would like to avoid adding white background in photoshop and basically want to render object on white background with matte shadow alpha. Right now when using Corona shadow catcher I'm getting black background with shadow alpha. Anyway to get white background and shadow alpha?
In my attached examples first one is render straight from Corona. Second one is collapsed white background and added corona alpha shadow and this is what I want straight form render engine.

Bormax - try to individualize (channels)  image only visible (image background) and same image for light .
in this case you can control each one and find some balance with 2 channels  (visible and GI light)
no post production in this images this is raw render... no tree post prod. only small color correction inside textures

thks in advance ..guys

Grate renders. Would love to see tutorial how you do this channels trick.

[Max] I need help! / fireflies when Lightmixing

« on: 2018-02-25, 07:55:39 »

I'm getting lot of fireflies when using Lightmix. Basically when bumping up lights, fireflies appear. Maybe I'm doing something wrong when using Lightmix. Shoudl all lights have 1 power as starting point when using lightmix to avoid those fireflies?

Nice work as usual.. I love these tiny details in the textures
How do u discribe using Corona so far knowing you are old Vray user

Love it! But at some point I might miss the car flakes material :) Also light softbox texture would be nice to put into corona light plane to get studio softbox similar thing.
