I had a ton of fun working on this one with my first try at a fully raytraced environment.

Will you make a stream about this? I am really interested to see how you set up this scene. Looks great by the way

Nice work, did you work on this with ray-tracing enabled throughout or only switch to it at render-time

Synaesthesia · Apr 2020

I had it on the entire time, but only the highest quality settings were enabled on the main camera @Pirax.

@Totozoos I'm not sure to be honest. Perhaps! I am writing up a tutorial/process on how I built this scene and working several bits of detail into it, including how I worked with SpeedTree and the setup I did using raytracing.

That would be awesome and really helpful. I had a difficult time trying to get it working correctly on outdoor scenes and with landscapes as well as with volumetric fog. Anyways, looking forward to your tutorial. Thank you!

i haven't read through full article yet but i was really impressed with those long leaf pines. I tried making some before but found i couldn't get a very convincing effect and stay at the resolution needed. i think you did a better job, they look very authentic. well done!
