They should switch to VCM or wait for better caustics implementation. ;)

That's already being implemented!
Really? Where? There is standard blend material but it doesn't let you add layers easily and it doesn't work well (for example with refractive materials). We need to wait for this.

And you didn't use any sharpening filter in post production?

All I can say is there must be some CRAZY amount of skills and work put into these images. The level of detail and huge amounts of geometry are breathtaking. Awesome job. Hope it was fun to work with Corona. :)

The only thing I didn't like is the cropping in the picture you posted in this thread - why is the girl (most important element, right?) cut into half?? It just looks wrong for me.

Looks good. I think you should use lower bump values. And add some chaos - wrinkles on the carpet, etc.

The progressive adaptivity that has recently been removed was pretty usable.  You could set gi samples to 2 and then most pixels would get only 2 samples and those above the given threshold would get 2*x samples after y passes. It worked pretty well, not sure why Keymaster removed it. I hope because he's preparing an even better version. :)

« on: 2014-08-21, 10:31:19 »
That's because you are using caustics. When you enable them, refractive objects cast shadows and then caustics are computed. Caustics are a bit painful for Corona right now so I would suggest turning them off, at least for the drop objects. Do you really need them? Caustics on glass?

Nice! I can see you've made huge improvement since your first posts. The cow model is really cool. :)

The third shot is definitely the best.
What I don't like about the others is that they consist of 3d and 2d elements poorly mixed together (white borders around bitmaps, etc). In the river shot, you can also clearly see that the scale is wrong. There are some small bushes/grass at the river bank so the house must be tiny. :)

It depends on what level of detail you need but I think it looks ok in your tests.

11143
Well... it simulates light scattering through some media so you can use it for SSS, smoke and volumetric fog effects. This could add to the "mystic after-rain feeling" but it's still in development and available only in daily builds. :)

Great, clean renders. I am no expert but the architecture also looks appealing to me - simple and functional.

I think debris maker was also involved. :)

I wonder if these works would benefit from use of new scattering media feature.

If only there was a way to map translucency fraction as well.
I thought there is in A7. No? Then it must be in newer versions so you can expect it in next public release.
