hi Jure, very nice work.
For pure LWF you mean Quick LWF with default parameters, and NO tonemap blend but Gamma 2.2/1 in General Teb instead ?

very good work, Jure... AO or PT in corners ?

Paolo

all this happens via Xstream, right ?

I agree; Core will be a revolution, but rest assured your investment on Kray will keep it's value for a long time. I guess NT did most work on render engine before 9.6, coders now will concentrate on structure, modeling and animation for a while. Even when they'll touch rendering again, i doubt they...

nice, but personally i find it quite irritating: Kray community and b-testers are asking for some attention from Happy Digital for a while.
I think this is an answer.

hey Matt, welcome onboard

Hi,
well:

- yes, by now the object must be loaded. It's not excluded this could change in the future to go proxy direction.
- Yes, you can color instances randomly.

hmm not really, i get 2500x 1600 pics in less than 1 hour on a quad.
I'm taliking of exteriors only eh..

Paolo

a personal advice: it's useless to mess with photons and FG in exteriors, just disable irradiance cache and use pathtracing with 3-4 bounces. Extremely precise results and quite speedy.

hi, dont you have any issues in haveng multiple PCs access and write the same GI file ? Usually when a file is open on a PC, it's read-only for all others...

KLeftover, this is exactly what i'm asking for a long while. I really hope we'll see this asap, since it's Kray's N.1 limitation for animation... i would use Kray in dozens of productions if it wasnt for this exact issue. I read you come from Vray.. interesting, can you draw your comparison between ...

I agree here, Grzegorz should allow item animation even without updating their GI during the animation.
So moving cars and characters will have same GI in the whole movie, but usually it's not important and it's something one can live with.

Hey Tom, i think you knew about this plugin.... so you actually wrote your tutorial without knowing it ? I thought it was because the plugin didnt fully work on LW6+. anyway yes, there WAS such a plugin. It worked nicely on LW 5.6 but it was never updated, so if you still have a 5.6 install you can ...

nice, what's the timing for this rendering ?
