Wilson Iwazawa Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 Hi I´m testing the Radiosity of Max 5.1, and i´d like some critics about this render. I´m trying to use only the sunlight on this scene. After many tests with the sunlight system, i didnt had a good result, so i´d decided to use only Sunlight and not check "exterior daylight" on "Logarithmic Exposure control". This is the result...

Ricardo Eloy Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 Welcome aboard, Wilson! Once again, it's nice to see more and more brazilians on CGA! Your image looks good, but it's still too clean tho. Add some more elements to it such as furniture, decoration... Lighting looks good so far, but you know that more objects will change the ilumination effect, so you should add them and test it. Regarding the radiosity method, ,how long did it take to render? And how about posting some of the settings so we can check it too?

Brian Cassil Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 I wasn't able to bring up the pick. Maybe you could use the upload utility and the put the image right in your post. E eu tambem acho que e´ bom pra ver tantos brasileiros aqui. (And I also think that it~s good to see so many Brazilians here.) Speaking of which, I know that my portugeuse looks terrible but it's partly because I can't fiqure out how to use the accents with my keyboard. I have the portugeuse language installed and can change my keyboard so I CAN type with the proper accents (I think) but I just don't know where the accents are.

Ricardo Eloy Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 Hehe....America keyboards are really a problem! Don't worry about accents, tho. We can understand you perfectly. And, BTW, how the heck did you learn portuguese? This is not the first time I see you writing in portuguese, so... [] Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigcahunak Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 cant load the pic here... Brian, ask Rick to send you a keyboard... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricardo Eloy Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 Weird...I can load it without problems....BTW, no keyboards available here at this time, dude :ngelaugh: [] Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Cassil Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 Actually Rick, if you could even just e-mail me a decent res image of you're keyboard for me to look at while typing in Portugeuse that would be great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nisus Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 can't see the image either ;-(( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson Iwazawa Posted April 4, 2003 Author Share Posted April 4, 2003 Helo Thanks for the quickly feedback Rick, and to the others that can't see the image it probably a problem os the image server....i promisse i will use the upload utility sson. Rick, this image is WIP, and im working on it, and i will be posting changes...and about the setting, today i'm not at BH, so only on Sunday i will post it. One more time thank you very much for the feedback. Wilson Iwazawa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson Iwazawa Posted April 7, 2003 Author Share Posted April 7, 2003 I´m back Here´s the settings of the advanced lighting. I would ask some help about the glass material, if you had noticed, it´s very self-iluminated, even if i didn´t set this parameter...i willl send these setting too.. thanks for the attention Wilson Iwazawa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson Iwazawa Posted April 7, 2003 Author Share Posted April 7, 2003 Guys...i forgot to say... I used a Sunlight (90000 lux), and a daylight (multiplier 1,0)...only Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricardo Eloy Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 Hi again, Wilson! You're using a brightness over 100...I think it's not a good idea. It makes the solution look a bit unreal, imho. For example, check the sofa: it has a very strange bright spot on the left. Probably because of the super brightness. Lower it to 90 and play with the other settings. And there are some artifacts too. When I said you should add more props, it's because they will definetly change the aspect of the final radiosity solution, so you should consider testing radiosity with them.

quizzy Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 You may also try to "regather indirect illumination" and setting your units to metres instead of centimetres. And yes, brightness at 110?? Way too much. I don't know what you want the glass to look like, but that specular level of 250 won't do you much good. Instead try to put the reflection map at 100 instead of 50... Maybe you could post a link to the scene in this topic so people can play around with it in MAX5.1 (like me for instance).. P.S. We could make it a unchallenge topic if you want, I could host your scene if you want.. cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson Iwazawa Posted April 8, 2003 Author Share Posted April 8, 2003 Again, thank you for the comments Rick, i set the brightness above 100 because when i set on the checkbox for exterior daylight, the scene turns too dark (shoudn´t i set "exterior daylight"?) I think this is the cause for the "superilumination" of the glass. Quizzy, i like your idea, it´ll be a good way for us to learn about MAX 5 illumination. Could you say how can i send the scene to you? Wilson Iwazawa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nisus Posted April 9, 2003 Share Posted April 9, 2003 Boost your refine iterations x10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson Iwazawa Posted April 10, 2003 Author Share Posted April 10, 2003 Hi guys I´ve been working a little on this perspective, so this is the latest result Nisus, the refine now is 12X or more... Rick, i think i will not put more object on this scene... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricardo Eloy Posted April 11, 2003 Share Posted April 11, 2003 Originally posted by Uirsu: Rick, i think i will not put more object on this scene... Hehe....no need to. I said that because they definetly have a strong influence on the radiosity solution. But if the design has few object, that's ok. I think your image looks much better now. I'd only point out 2 minor things (and I guess you're ready): 1) the exterior looks over exposed. Maybe it's because you had to boost your light to a very high level, so it's "estourando", as we say in portuguese. 2) The small corridor on the right is a little too dark. Turn one of those ceilinng lamps on, just to see the bedroom door and maybe a couple of frames on the wall... Cheers! (haven't I heard that somewhere else?)
