  Global Illumination (dome) lighting test (Message 1 to 10 of 10)

Hi all,

Firstly let me stress - THE MESH IS NOT MY WORK - its a rhino model I found
online.

decided to give my computer something to do for a couple of hours last night
after I managed to get my PIII 650 overclocked to 867mhz

this is my basic global illumination moray file with some tweaks, and the
mesh is just there to see how well the lighting worked out. 99% rad
lighting, 1 point light and 1 3x3 area light, both very dim (0.1 or less),
and both slightly yellow

took a shade over 2 hours to render.

Only posting it here as I think I may just have got it cracked at last :)

Wow, this one is really cool.
You used antialias method 2 ,didn't you? Maybe even too clean.
I always go crazy for radiosity images... and I like the choice of the
colors.
(How big was the mesh file?)

Looks neat.. if you're looking to keep your computer busy longer while
you sleep, add a normal to give it a little texture.

lighting.... <g>

I have had 40mb stuff from some of my own models. that lightflow twisty
thing is 46mb - you can tell its a mesh at lower settings.

It looks good, but in general scenes with reflective and specular surfaces
are not an extremely good example for global illumination.  

BTW, how long did parsing that mesh take? (mesh or mesh2)

I exported it from rhino as a moray udo and inc, so I have no idea if its
mesh or mesh 2 (or neither), 150mb, took around 4 mins
