kray exteriors

[juli51_forum]

Hi there, some nice settings for using Kray with skylight in exterior landscapes?

[jure]

Try using photon estimate>precomputed filtered + raytrace direct light instead of photon mapping. This is often enough because you don't need shadow details like you need in interiors.

Hi Jure, thanks for your advices, i post you here what i got, but I have also two questions, i can't get transparency like it should be in the outer green wall,.. and also can't get instances of the palm trees, I tryed naming my null with the same name as original: "PALMERAS VELODROMO:layer2" is there something I've done wrong with exterior scenes?

By the way, Kray manual is the best ting about Kray apart From K. 1.7 release.,

Hi juli51!
Your image has splotches because your irradaince is not smooth enough. Increase N and/or precache blur value.

What kind of transparency are you looking for? What settings yo use now?

Here's a short instance how to:

Say you have object myobject:layer1.
To create instance of this object create a null named myobject|layer1
Note that "|" replaces ":"
If your object has only single layer i.e. "myobject" then your Null should be named the same "myobject".

So in your example you should name your null "PALMERAS VELODROMO|layer2"
