adyandru@gmail.com Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Hello I want to render a big scene with Vray fur making realistic grass. I have created Vray fur on a plane around 150x150m but i think its never going to finish the job.I am using 3ds max 2009 and Vray 1.6.I am rendering on a Core 2 quad 2.9 with 4 gb ram. Generally its going to be a landscape with many trees and reflections on water so i dont know if i should use Vray fur for such a big scene. Maby there something wrong with my settings... Please any suggestions for realistic grass? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devin Johnston Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 You can't use Vray fir to render grass you should use 2D displacement. What version of Vray are you using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cecofuli Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 It's possible do a grass with fur. Only your terrain must have a lot a subdivision. See this sample: LINK This is a "fur" but you can change the direction (with maps) and material for grass. best regards cecofuli Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devin Johnston Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 I guess I should have said you shoulden't use it, every time I've tried it always takes forever and my system becomes unstable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klokwerks Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 I agree with GI Dude. Unless your actually going to notice it... whats the point?! We use the Vray displacement modifier for creating grass only... and ONLY... if the camera is close enough to actually show it off. Otherwise your just killing you machine and render times for no reason. Most of the times, the client doesn't even notcie it nor do they care unless its upfront and close to really hightlite it. Then again... that's my two cents based on past expeirences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
