This image took over 55 hours on a 166 pentium (with 64 meg mem)
using pov for windows 3.1E and a render priority of "highest". Nothing
else running concurrently. (no background processes of ANY KIND)
Radiosity settings were at the highest quality. (according to the
radios.inc include file)
Trying to create this image was a nightmare from the start. Quite a
few of the objects in the scene were from 3rd party sources, and I had
a hell of a time scaling/translating them as a result.
I was trying for MEGA realism but as you can see below, I failed
miserably. I just could NOT make the damn thing look REAL! There were
supposed to be an actual set of open doors in the back wall leading to
the outside. But I got so digusted
with this picture I simply gave up by the time I got around to trying to
create them.
With the exception of the pillars and the desk, (and the obvious glass
objects) everything you see here is a product of image maps used for
textures. Without them, it wouldn't have even looked as real as it
does.
Anyways, enough rambling, Please let me know what you think of this.
What you would change, etc. Maybe I'll work on this some more down the
road sometime.
