Well, for every max users seeking the holly grail of renderers:
www.chaoticdimension.com (http://www.chaoticdimension.com/products/info/?ID=7) these guys did a hell of good job: Soft shadows, global illumination, SSS ( subscattering thing)
radiosity and all the stuff we want, and it's working perfectly with dynamic scenes and.. it's free (for the beta version) chaarge!!

yup, VRAY is almost as impressive as they say. Still a little buggy, and the lack of documentation makes the learning curve higher than it might be, but the SPEED....drooool.....OMG it's sooo fast. I want to compare it to the final version of Brazil, because right now VRAY smokes it in most things. (apples to oranges though)

Pascal, have you rendered anything major in vray yet? (Other than teapots, and caustic cubes) :)

Been playing with Vray for the last week or so, should have
some new images soon. Very impressed so far with both
speed and quality. It's also the first time I've been able
to get my hands on SSS which is proving interesting.

some vray pix on my site
if you want check it, test pix but no spheres and teapots/more complete scenes soon i think/.

the render is ultra fast, not realistic like mental ray
but it still beta.

btw the new build is out today/more bugs fixed/

cheers

heheh I go download it now ;)
btw: some times I get strange blue things on my meshes when using bitmaps.. waht is the correct way to put bitmap with Vray? something specific to do?

chrom
12-14-2001, 11:24 AM
aha
i think this is from filtering of the bitmap
try to put it to none or summed area
the lead programmer told me he will fix the problem
but eh this is beta

cheers
.chrom

btw i have the same problem with mental ray
the filtering is the problem again

DEC 13......RUN QUICKLY!!!! New Build of Vray up at their site. They added alot...I mean aloooot to it. Damn I fell in love with this from build one. These guys are breaking their backs fixing bugs on a daily basis, so everyone go show your support and download it. The trade off in render times make it better that Brazil or Final Render...IMHO :)

I can't wait to have time to play with vray now. I downloaded it on the last build but someone told me it "fell over" on larger scenes, so I left it alone for a while but the testimony of Mr. Blanche is all I need. ;)
