Hi all.

Just a scene I'm working on which uses radiosity for most of the lighting.
The only light_source is the one outside the window. This uses low rad
settings, (count 50) but still took about 6hrs to render. Lots more to add
and I really need to work on my texturing.

Comments and criticisms welcome

Nice, 

I would suggest my IsoWood include file, but you will not like the
rendering time...

The walls seem very bright, do they have an ambient finish component?

Wow.  Seems awfully bright.  Do you have many high abient objects to
rescatter the light, or do you have ambient still on?  Also, what was your
recursion level? 

What makes the light glow in the back corner?

Hi,

There is no ambient in the scene but it is very hard to get the brightness
value right as I think that there may be a bug as it sometimes needs
changing on a render by render basis with no change to the scene, odd.

BTW, I think the website problem is to do with the base tag, as the CSS
checks out ok at the w3 validator site

Hi

It is a bit bright, brightness value needs playing with, and maybe the
brilliance value too and ambient is off

Thanks Tony, I like your rad pics the balcony looks like it will turn out
nice.

ICQ is one of the programs I lost when my computer crashed, and people have
been complaining of those ad popups so I didn't install it again, the only
one I've got is MSN Messenger which is nice and simple to use.

I can send you ICQ99b if you want, it doesn't have the popups found in
ICQ 2000 and is also comparatively lightweight.
