Title: Rays Landscape
Post by: mr-miley on January 30, 2008, 06:08:20 PM
Hi all. Just a quick one from me.... well, when I say quick, it only took me a couple of hours to put the scene together, but took 68.5 hours to render at quality 1, atmo samples 128 and cloud quality at 100 on a core 2 duo with 3 gb of ram!!

I know that the clouds are a bit odd, but Tash and Holly (wife and daughter) were moaning at me that they wanted to use the PC. Bloody hell, don't they understand the creative process  ;D

Anyway, I don't think it turned out too bad?

And I bet it was for something trivial like shopping  ::) ;D


Second PC?

A couple of weeks ago ASDA were doing an Acer laptop for £299 that would be more than adequate for all but Ultra High End tasks.  Better spek. than my laptop and I did useful TG work on that while I was away over Christmas.   ;)

I am not even sure that the clouds are wrong  ;D

I've had the same problem with the clouds, try decreasing the cloud's smallest scale in the density fractal, that should make them more detailed around teh edges.
