New experimental futures:
- new tonemap (reinhard blending)
- phisical light from Kray (silimar to sunsky from LW but much better idea: real colors without tweak, full auto colors sun ,auto shadows smooth, aut sun strong, better quality GI)

Renders without lights from LW (only IES).

great render as usual......if i may ask, is this new feature will be on the version 2 that will be out soon? thanks

Phisicall light animatable to make a full day light animation?

Good renders. I think you could add some PS curves to make better contrast...

Only as experimental - without GUI.

Awesome work again johny! But - in the first image, the grilles in the wall are distorted with noise/poor AA.

I have had this sort of thing before, and it doesn't look like moire patterns. How do you fix this? Spatial tolerance/angular tolerance/FG rays?

Seems to me that this "noise" or "moire" effect is more likely crappy GI, splotches in small detail like the ventilation "bars"... If that's what you ment?

Grid 4 FSAA should get rid of 99% of moire effects... Grid 4 catmull with FSAA is good for website resolution graphics I think...

This is exactly what I mean, but I don't think Johny would use 'bad' AA settings and actually the AA looks okay to me. I'm sure it's not moire patterns either because the splotches are irregular and don't follow a pattern.

It just looks like there aren't as many samples in that area. As a render it still looks great, it just looks like the cleaners haven't dusted properly! Johny's renders are normally so perfect and crisp that I know he can't have intended this

There is actually nothing strictly wrong with the render, in fact it's a lovely image - but I did wonder how he might change the settings to eliminate this though.

It adds to realism though, doesn't it?

Undoubtedly! But it still doesn't help those of us who want to eliminate this sort of thing

nice new features! so this means that this physical sky does incorporate a sun? no need for any scene light, as far as i understood? can we please have it track a directional scene light for easier setup?

cheers

markus

perfect! as always
