Hello,

This is my current Mech WIP. It narrows down to what I wanted to achieve,
yet before I can continue I have to solve some more problems. After long
trials I still have no clue why the two marked *errors* occur, the grainy
shape of the left spotlight and the strange triangular artifacts ( maybe I
am the onl one who thinks he sees it? ) in  the surface fog. I would be
thankful if anyone who knows these problems could help me a little.

clueless,

f00

If you're using a heightfield as ground, and
another heightfield above that as media-container,
you're probably seeing the triangles from that
heightfield. You might want to use a higher
resolution pic for that...

Regards,
Tim

My setup is exactly as you described.

Thanks for the advice, I'm currently trying that with a 3200x2400 pixel
height_field, but as I wanted to try radiosity as well in that render, I'm
afraid it will take some more time than it already has. I hope it turns out
better than before ;-)

Read you later,
