Title: Grassy Pool
Post by: darthvader on January 19, 2008, 03:39:33 PM
This is my first decent render with tg2, render time was just over 10 hours. I would like to something to make the sun's reflection look more realistic and broken up without increasing the wave size. I guess i'll just have to tinker around a bit more.

Your grass and textures are fantastic here.  I can't really help you with your reflection issues, though :(.

Have you tried adjusting the reflection spread instead of the wave size that should help archive more realistic reflections?

Regards to you.

Very nice looking scene! I agree a little more differentiation in vegetation color would be good as the scene looks a little too homogenous, but the detail and variety of plant life is very nice.

For the sun reflection, if you're using a Water Shader try adjusting Min Highlight Spread. If you're using a Reflective Shader try adjusting Specular Roughness.

Thanks everybody. for the grass i think i'll try tweaking the values in the grass' color shader, try and get some more yellowish greens in there. unfortunatly my tg2 is tweaking out at the moment so'l have to wait for a bit till i get the key for my preordered deep version ;D

Very nice, especially for a first render.
