NeumannHomes Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 We are trying to make our siding appear more realistic, but ran into a small snag. We've created a displacement map to give the siding a 3D profile, the final rendering looks good on the front with the shadows correctly representing the irregularity of the siding. But along the side as you get closer to the ground the siding appears to become flat and no longer has a profile. See red circle. We are using MAX 6, with VRAY 1.09.03r Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William Alexander Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 Looks like a sampling / resolution issue. Have you tried rendering out larger image format, like 2400x1200 for example. Or increase the level at which Vray samples and applies GI to a smaller area unit. WDA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hockley91 Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 Well, despite that problem, your rendering looks very very realistic. I would say that the displacement problem is a resolution issue also. If the image is at a higher resolution, the farther away part will probably come out clearer. I had a similar problem with some distant areas as well. I was using Vray, so maybe it's inherent with the GI calculations? I would like to know how you did your grass? Was that a displacement map also? Please let me know how you did your grass! Great rendering! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Johnson Posted September 12, 2004 Share Posted September 12, 2004 I second that about your grass... Chris Johnson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy L Posted September 17, 2004 Share Posted September 17, 2004 Yeah dude, share your grass. Everyone wants good grass and your grass is definately the shiznit. I may start a 'get Rob to share his grass' thread if your not careful... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Nelson Posted September 17, 2004 Share Posted September 17, 2004 If you want that grass, you have to be using vray displacement. You will find that grass mat. easily if you go to the Vray forum and search for grass displacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
