Thomas, let's try with something more... easy. The best way (in my opinion) to get a perfect glass is the following: build a sphere, now build a second sphere a bit smaller than the first one. Place the second inside the first. You're done! Assign a clear dialectric to the first ball and a coloured ...

Yes. You can see a caustic near the first bottle, it's delicate.

I don't supposed you feel like sharing the scene so we can learn? :-) Cheers, Thomas Sorry, I can't. It's a test for a product shot. Anyway, I've just done another test, and with the same settings the rendertime is 4 minutes and 13 secs. About dielectric: Kray CAN render dielectric, you have only t...

Very nice. Two questions: 1) What was the rendertime (at what resolution)? 2) What material setup did you use? Dielectric? Nodes? Just plain old LW channels with gradients on incidence angle? Thanks for the info! Thomas 1) On a triple core AMD Phenom the rendering process took about 8 minutes @ 600...

Wine bottles. HDRi lighting only.

Thanks. Fast and kind, as always.

Hi, I can no more render with LW native engine: by pressing F9 I start Kray rendering, even if I press the button "Render Frame" in the render menu. I've already checked the "Edit Keyboard Shortcut" window, and it tells me that the command "Render Frame" is assigned to ...

even the bottle looks filled its empty !! yeahh i modeled the inner liquid but obiously it increased the render time for nothing because the fluid edge is hidden by the cap !

Nice. How did you get this awesome look? I'd like to see the actual object.

For Hires minimum is 8 Giga...I suggest 12 or more

I hope I have enough free slots.
Thank you guys

You're out of memory, I would say. How much RAM do you have? How much is in use? Do you have instances, lots of imagemaps..? There might be something you could do to optimise your scene but we need more information... Oh, Jure, about that! Could we have something like Fprime's "low RAM TGA&quo...

4 Gb on a AMD Phenom triple core 2.10 Ghz processor. Anyway, I suppose it may be something in the scene. In the worst moment Kray stopped even with smaller image sizes (2400x1500 or so). I don't know why, but now it seems to work. I've resetted the scene and reloaded all objects. Right now it's in t...

Hi, I'm trying to render a large image (5906x4193 pixels) and Kray stops working after the "Precomputing irradiances" step. It doesn't crash, the "Done XX%" counter simply stops after 20%, sometimes a bit after. I've checked the CPU usage so I'm sure it wasn't working. With a sma...
