Title: My stupid question of the day
Post by: Harvey Birdman on March 16, 2007, 09:26:18 AM
What does the 'GI' stand for in Render Quality settings? I suspect it's not gastro-intestinal, but that's the only thing I can think of.

???

GI = Global Illumination

Higher the GI value, Better the results, More render time

;D Yours. I'm sure I have answered it at least once before because I remember linking to a page about GI on Wikipedia.
