Sasquatch vs Fiber FX vs Kray Instance

Post by azman_821009 »

Hi guys,

I would like to create a detail grass so still thinking which tool I need to choose. Should I use a sasquatch or fiber FX or kray instance?
Which 1 won't take to long to render?

Thanks.

Yes, I think so. I just tried use a FiberFX and it's not working. If I use kray instance, can I select the polygon as reference or instance?

I would use kray instance. It renders fast and can use kray shader to speed up render time.
In lw dpinstance is better than fiberfx or sas

Thanks Jnom. Maybe for the forest or open area is easy to use kray instance. How about the landscape at the center of the building? And the grass level is not a same level, for example like a hill or else. This is the top plan which is the green color is a grass and red mark is something like a hill. So how can I use kray instance for this situation?

You know I think instanced grass is overkill for large scenes. It's better to use "Paolo's grass" method. It renders extremely fast and looks good. And it's easy to setup, just clone the grass surface 50 or so times and you're done.
