Very nice Franck!

I like the dark look as well. Great moody atmo

Since the background is quite "open" you might consider adding some steep spiky mountains, also covered with the pops.
Now it gives a little bit the impression that the jungle ends abruptly.

Cheers,
Martin

like that render a lot and finally understand the title of the thread ;-)
First thought it would be a Stargate thingy ;-)

My main criticism on this render that it's not large enough

yup... to be honest, it crashed 7 times while i tried 1440*900... i tried some tweakings of values but i get impatient so i tried smaller size

Really? You have a similar system as me, isn't it? Q6600 with 8GB of RAM? I wonder why it was crashing?

Seth · January 18, 2010, 01:02:38 PM

4GB.
i even had TG2 just closing by itself 2 times.... without notification.
strange.... even with smaller subdiv cache and all... just crash.
but, well, it really happened very rarely to me... i think it is the first time since 6 or 7 previous renders.

Try disabling the raytrace objects. I noticed the raytracing option uses more memory.

Seth · January 18, 2010, 01:15:17 PM

no way !!!

Seth · January 18, 2010, 01:43:10 PM

no but you suggest to uncheck the raytraced option for my object but the "good lookin" vegetation is made for the most part by this ray traced option

No hard feelings please Henry

I just found it funny, nothing more

Henry Blewer · January 18, 2010, 02:02:46 PM

It works for me when I don't use raytraced objects. There is the new Ultra high quality, which is quite good. Raytrace is best.

I have a thick skin. I can take it.

as you said, RT is best !
