[Max] I need help! / Laubwerk trees in Cinema 4D almost unrenderable

« on: 2016-10-24, 18:03:23 »

Hello guys, another of my noobish problems. I´ve recently started experimenting with Laubwerk trees and I´ve found out that I must doing something wrong, because even 20-25 trees take about 5 minutes for the initial render pass... So I tried to make them proxy, but the thing is Corona (or Cinema) is unable to load them because of memory then. I have 16GB ram, so nothing really powerfull, still I thought it should be enough to work with this geometries. Laubwerk´s Spread plugin is almost unusable in my scene, because initial render pass takes about 10 minutes or even more. So is there any solution? I´ve tried to find some help but most of Corona users are using 3DS Max, so I wasn´t really successfull.
Any help is warmly appreciated, thank you! :)

Well scale definitely matters in my opinion. I downscaled those boxes about 100 times and then played with volumetric material a lot, but couldn't achieve anything even close to Maru's scene.
But if you make it bigger, everything works just like it should...

Thank you Maru, your scene works perfectly. Is it possible, that it could be caused by size of the scene? I mean, my scene has about 10 cm grid spacing, yours has 10000. Or I don´t have any idea what else could cause it...

Edit: It does affect it, attaching screen of similar boxes but way smaller. So I guess it is solved, thank you! :)

Hi Maru, thanks for responding. I´m attaching screenshot of my material settings. However I tried many different combinations of distance, scattering, absorption with no big success. Whole scene is just getting overally foggy without any counting of distance, etc...

I've just found out, that it could be caused by type of my Corona license. I'm using Alpha V5 for Cinema 4D. Is it why I cannot achieve proper environmental haze with godrays?
Thank you!

Hello guys, I´ve currently hit this difficulty that I´m not really able to set volumetric fog right or maybe it´s something else. I´m attaching two rough renders - first one is with no volumetric fog at all, second one is the best I´ve been able to achieve by setting volumetric material and pluging it into scene render settings. I´m using Corona in Cinema 4D.
What I would like to achieve is nice enviromental fog, which is increasing by distance from camera and some godrays.
I will appreciate any help. Spent a lot of time figuring out how to deal with it and eventually this is maximum I could do.
Thank you very much in advance.
Jakub
