The final run of my Clockwork Orange redux. For some reason this took eons
to render, something in the order of 5 days (partially because of 256 light
sources and AA 0.0). My next CGSphere submission (and possibly last
depending on how the voting down continues)

Looks pretty good.

Why did you need that many light sources? It looks like a few area lights
and *maybe* some radiosity would have done fine.

256 light sources does seem just a bit excessive.
Also, don't worry about the downvoting. I have yet to find a
user-submitted-content-with-peer-voting website that doesn't have
downvoting.

This is possibly the most random POV-Ray image ever... Nicely done though.

Yes, it needs that may light sources. The lighting is the HDRI-based light
system I've been perpetually working on. It uses median-cut method (plus
some other stuff) so it is a n^2 problem. I usually use a level of 8 to
get the smoothest minimum results (i.e. 2^8=256 sources). Just simply
placing area lights wouldn't give a 'proper' light distribution for the
scene, as it calculates light from the entire HDRI environment map. Unlike
radiosity, it uses 'active' light sources. I can't get as good results with
radiosity without extremely high settings.
Usually the scenes don't run as long as this one, I can't figure out what
slows it down so much. It appears to come from the csg gears mostly. I
did get it to run somewhat better using manual bounding.
As, I've stated previously, I hope to post my lighting system when I'm fully
satisfied with it's performance.

Thanks, I'm quite satisfied myself (for now...)

Aaaargh! I couldn't do a 5 day render... (My patience that was once
unlimited, is now limited).
Nice image Trevor. Well modeled. 8 out of 10 from me only because I don't
like the dark skysphere effect. The other thing that spoils it for me is
that standard background that you shouldn't change, (rules). :o/

Me neither, but it was Christmas so my laptop would've been idle anyways.

Thanks. I may end up doing a wallpaper series using different environment
maps. At least without the grid I won't need the AA 0.0 settings so
they'll be faster to run.
