well for the first one you could increace the cloud quality to get rid of the jaggedness.

Regards,

Will

ok thanks

that worked, also what would the best kind be, as so far i can only produce a lot of small seprate clouds (like the one in the shot i posted

the sea is beautiful, get those silhouetted mountains out of the way so we can see it better!

This is my first full render. I don't know how make realistic shaders. So this is a effect:

xNickx - nice beginning. I like your clouds, blue sky, and mountain texture. The snow effect is pretty good, too.

And its HDRI. I saved this in TIFF take 7 images with -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 EV and make HDR in Photomatix

xNickx, you don't need to use that manual process to create an HDR image. You can save directly to OpenEXR HDR format by choosing it from the format types drop-down in the Save As dialog when saving images.

It doesn't matter where you start, it's where you end that counts.

lol yeah,

Sorry this next renders taking so long, first the render kept crashing the Program, Then once i got a finished version, the Fake Stone Shader that i added into it kinda ruined the look of the hill, so im rendering the final version now :p

zionner · May 27, 2007, 07:37:51 AM

arrgh..its crashed everytime ive try to render this picture, it gets the top half done, then crashes

Check in your nodes to make sure that you aren't applying really small-scale displacement somewhere. That's the most likely cause I can think of.
