certainly could, however I was under the impression render times were considerably longer. If your suggesting they would be less time consuming than using Vray, I will peruse that route. I guess that's what I'm trying to figure out.

Hi all, I’m trying to figure out what an expected render time would be using Vray. I work for a landscape company and create between 1-3 renderings a day and want to improve the quality of my renderings. My main issue here is time. Typically I am not given much of a timeline to work with before presentations are due. (4-6hrs) So before I spend several hours learning a new rendering system I am trying to see if it will be possible to implement Vray with in my constraints. I do not feel The scenes are very complex, typically a backyard incorporating a pool/spa/arbor (300,000-600,000 pollys)… I use real world imagery’s alpha channels on planes for my trees/plants. I will attach a typical rendering for reference. Right now I’m using Studio Max basic scan line rendering system with daylight and spend about 15-25 minutes on my render. If there are any crucial pieces of info needed to better figure out something like this please let me know, or if giving a file would be of better help I can do that as well. Thanks for your help, Jesse
