Kray and garagefarm
Hi all
Just put together a very short animation to test out the http://www.garagefarm.net And believe me, that was the most happily $13 I have ever spent in my life.
I send him a packed scene file and after a few moment I got an email asking how I would like to have the animation deliver. I told him as 24Bit tiff files. And then I ask him if it was possible for him to go into the scene and change to camera 2 after camera 1 was finish rendering. And for all the other 5 cameras in the scene. No problem he says. We was on Skype the so no waiting for answers. And then he call me just to make sure we was ready to go. We had a problem with a plug-in, but that was taken care of en a few moment. I have never seen that kind of service in my life.
After 4 hours he was finish rendering 350 frames (on my system I used 7 min pr. frame = 40 hours) and I only paid $13. That is properly less then the electrical bill for having my own PC running for 40 hours.
Try it out. I works.
Her is the test animation: Car animation

Re: Kray and garagefarm
Excellent work. How did you composite the car shadows to the plate using kray or is it one pass render? Motionblur is kray or post process?

Hi,
Yes it is a GI Independent render. I did not have any success with Time Interpolation. And no, MB is post work. All to keep render time down.

Re: Kray and garagefarm

IF is GI Independent render You used QMC, because I don`t see any blinking GI in scene. Second I saw You used AE with MB (small twist MB on objects borders areas when we freeze animation) is good idea but You was try MB in Kray ? is not that slow, with Grid 5 looks good)

Just Turn OFF Cache Irradiance in General Tapwhere is QMC in kray?
Re: Kray and garagefarm
When I did that before rendertime takes a huge hit and very noisy even at grid 4 fsa.Janusz Biela wrote:Just Turn OFF Cache Irradiance in General Tapwhere is QMC in kray?
Maybe ryste3d.com can show his rendersettings for this animation. Would help a lot in rendering animations with fast rendertime and good flickerfree quality. I am planning to do a short using kray render exclusively if the kray 2.2 version fixes alpha matt flags. Finally have an idea for a short at last.

Re: Kray and garagefarm
The animation is not 100% flicker free (97%) but when I apply just a small amount ReelSmart Motion Blur in After Effects it goes away. You don't need the PRO version, but it dos so much more.

Thanks. I loaded the kray setting. The setting is photon mapping? I thought car render is only raytraced.ryste3d.com wrote:The animation is not 100% flicker free (97%) but when I apply just a small amount ReelSmart Motion Blur in After Effects it goes away.

If You want render car in raytracing mode (but rest scene in full GI) just select shader with raytracing for cars surfaces.geo_n wrote:Thanks. I loaded the kray setting.

If car has more than 50 surface is there an easy way to add kray shader? Does kray same function in object properties? would be a good addition.
