Had some spare time last friday and put together a small scene to test both V-Ray 3.0 and Corona.
The scene is no biggy, but I wanted to try a few things. For instance, I wanted to test the Material Converter with a couple donzen different materials. Found some discrepancies, some weirdness with anisotropy, but all fixable. The other thing I noticed was a small problem with the displacement: Corona seemed to simply ignore the mapping already applied to the object, which was kind of weird. On the bright side, I thought "what the heck" and replaced the displacement on the rug with real fur turned into geometry (21 million polys). Corona passed thru it like a breeze. So sweet!
Also did a few captures on different moments just to compare how noisy the pic is as time passes and found the scene to be completely noise-free after around 40 minutes (which is lightning fast compared to V-Ray, which took 2:30hrs to finish the same image).
Another thing: the same scene rendered MUCH slower when I had AO included as a render element. Anyone confirm that?

CANT SEE ANY VRAY COMPARISONS HERE???

Didn't post the V-Ray image, thought this was not the case since all you would see was a clean render and pretty much the same quality.
-
It would be very interesting to see the VRay image, if you still have it, even if the differences are minor!
-
Here's the V-Ray version...

This is sstupid, you compare 2 images with 2 diffrent camera settings, one has post and other does not.
You waste people time by this, also you materials look mostly straight "Converted"
-
Look, Tanakov, in case you did not read the first post I was not comparing both engines. I just wanted to see how the converter behaves in a somewhat complex scene (the original materials had some intrincated settings) and specially the displacement. Thought this was important to figure out for me since my workflow is 100% based on VRay and if I'm to consider making the jump to Corona I need to be sure everything works in case of need.
Never wanted to compare the two pics. If that was the case, I'd have posted both side by side (which I didn't, I just posted the VRay version because people asked me to). Not reading the original post and stoping by to criticize something that was already stated by the original poster is a waste of time and just plain stupid, imo.

I'd appreciate it if you could post possible problems (with descriptions and - if possible - stripped down maxfiles) in the converter thread :) I can only fix the issues that get reported ;)

welcome to my world ;)

I ended up fixing the few issues I found, so I don't have them anymore. But I'll keep it in mind next time and post these there. ;-)
