Vray render settings explained- basics

Tutorial here... http://www.jamesshaw.co.nz/blog/?p=138

 

The above link is what we’ve (http://www.squintopera.com) have found works for rendering settings using vray in a quick tutorial/ list. There are many stories on various forums on what makes a difference, but I hope these settings will get people started and able to use vray for production output; which are primarily what these settings are for. However if you need more information as always visit the chaos forums. (http://www.chaosgroup.com/forums/vbulletin/).

 

There are 2 other key methods, adaptive and using pure brute force for animation passes which I’m hoping to put in another post… watch this space and I’ll put a link to it when I get 5mins off the work computer!

I don't know about these settings. I think it has been stated before a million times that settings depend on each individual scene. That being said, I do indeed use generally the same settings from project to project, but because I always am working on similar interior spaces with similar levels of detail.

 

Adaptive subdivision with a min/max of -1/2 and a clr thresh of .1 sounds like a recipe for splotches and huge levels of noise in any scene with a lighting setup short of total illumination of the room.

 

I would go with Adaptive DMC.

I would go with Adaptive DMC.

 

Yip agreed, I would always go Adaptive DMC as well, hence the "we use this generally now" bit
