Re: Carmack leaves Id
I have a somewhat different point of view on this one; in my opinion, Carmack has two main strengths. One is to find new and sometimes quite disruptive rendering technology. He usually gets these ideas by absorbing an incredible amount of information from seriously varied sources; from siggraph research papers to airplane… -
Re: [FINISHED] Scifi Antenna
I'm almost done with the texturing. Here are a few renders made in Unreal! Any feedbacks on texturing and lighting is more than welcome :) -
Re: Practice with Sub-D modeling (Critique please)
Sorry, I didn't imply you used smoothinggourps, but you asked about them, that's why I told that bit (my bad for not being more clear) Okay, about rendering and such and why we ask for that stuff: A model as is presented here, all nice and smooth and with lighting, doesn't really show us much info. Sure it shows the model,… -

Re: Using alpha planes in a scene, how do I optomize them for efficiency?
Frubes, he's using Maya2010... Don't use them. Great for realtime in certain scenarios. Piss poor for offline rendering, avoid them whenever possible unless you can cheat the shadows somehow. Straight geometry is always faster than rendering shadows that include opacity maps. Sounds like crazy talk but its true most… -
Can anyone take a look at these scripts?
I'm doing some freelance work and it involves rendering a product into different parts as layers. The layers are assembled as one product and uploaded into a website where the user can manipulate the layers with different materials colors etc., My contractor had a previous developer write scripts for the rendering process… -
Re: Jeremiah Bigley - Maxscript Adventures
Hey guys! I am pretty stuck. I am 95% there on this script and the padding is giving me an issue. Was hoping someone could help tell me why I am having this problem. Problem: After my first render, if I change the padding, it doesn't render out the new padding amount. I am not really sure why. It seemed to update in the… -
Re: Understanding the pipeline
They render each movie frames on giant render farms with hundreds (thousands?) of computers that's why optimization isn't a priority. The only criteria is quality. They want the best quality. I don't think a ''non-pbr renderer'' is a thing really. I'm pretty sure all big renderers are physically correct. You can trick a… -
Re: Best technique for illuminating a large indoor enviroment?
Thank you for your time. The test render that I've attached contains about 20 lights, but the real scene with the station will contain a lot more. All lights will however not be visible at the same time, and it might look something like the test render. I'm not too familiar with render layers, but I do suspect that it… -
