Hi

I might imagine a search light beam and/or a landing UFO in this Image.

I really like the lighting ....

[Kadri]

Yes the lighting is very nice! I like this image a lot , Zaai999 

[Zairyn Arsyn]

thanks for the positive comments
now doing a 1920x1080 version, streamlined it a bit, the last render was over 25 hours (have'nt had one of those in a while! )
hopefully it will be done by tomorrow afternoon

thats a interesting idea!

[Kadri]

25 hours ? Why does it take so long Zaai999 ?

[Walli]

really eerie lighting! Haloween is coming ;-)

Some broken trees to fill some of the "gaps" would be cool too, unless you aimed for this regular look

[inkydigit]

great lighting and eerie mood!

kadri, it was probably all that grass... 2 pops' of walli's "ultra high quality" wild grass.
the size of the populations were way to big... it goes way off into the background, where it is'nt even visible in the render.
so i lowered the size of the grass pops, and checked clip to camera.

AA was 7, detail .9, GI details/surfaces turned off supersample off, raytrace object also off.

the render should be done by this noon or afternoon - it was rendering the bottom of the image when i checked on it this morning.

Very good night woodland scene.

AA was 7, detail .9, GI details/surfaces turned off supersample off, raytrace object also off.

My understanding is that it is quicker to render with raytrace objects on, when AA can be reduced to 3 or 4.

i'll try that next time and see how it goes.

Thanks , Zaai999 ! I am waiting for your new render 

[Zairyn Arsyn]

nope, its still going... damn..
(that little chunk of rendered space down at the bottom is all its done today)

must be the grass, there spaced pretty close together and their file sizes are larger than the regular grasses.

im thinking canceling this and going with shmeerlap's suggestion, what do you think guys?

[inkydigit]

do a small scale comparison with rt on, and rt of, with the suggested aa settings, maybe?
