Hey all,
     I rendered this scene with POVRay 3.5 beta 14, on my Athlon 1400MHz
system, 1024x768 AA 0.3. Rendering time 3h52m. Used the following
high-quality radiosity settings (Radiosity_IndoorHQ from the rad_def.inc
file):

      pretrace_start 0.08
      pretrace_end   0.004
      count 400
      nearest_count 8
      error_bound 0.15
      recursion_limit 3
      low_error_factor 0.5
      gray_threshold 0
      minimum_reuse 0.015
      brightness 1.0
      adc_bailout 0.01/2


Enjoy, Arnold's got nothing on us! ;)

There are some sharp black spots in some of the corners of some of the 
windows, and in one or two othere places too.

Gaps in the mesh?

Post a reply to this message

Yeah, they must be gaps in the mesh, since I rerendered the scene at
1280x1024 with AA 0.1 and they didnt completely go away. Its either the
model I downloaded or the conversion program I used (3DWin). Anyway, the
purpose of my rendering was to test out the lighting setup and to showcase
povray's radiosity. I might look for a higher quality model later.

I think 3Dwin is shareware and deletes a triangle after a certain interval.
I use crossroads and don't have any trouble.
