here is much better version of my sprout box
I still looking fot "faster" settings
this was rendered over 40 hours :-(
current settings are :
global_settings{
assumed_gamma 1
ini_option "Quality=11"
ini_option "Radiosity=yes"
ini_option "Antialias=yes"
ini_option "Sampling_Method=2"
ini_option "Antialias_Threshold=0.1"
ini_option "Jitter=no"
ini_option "Antialias_Depth=3"
radiosity{recursion_limit 3 brightness 1.2 normal on}
max_intersections 255
max_trace_level 255
photons{count 20000 gather 20,100 autostop 0}
}
sky_sphere{pigment{gradient y color_map{[0 color blue .6][1 color rgb 1]}}}
light_source{<-30,30,-30>color rgb 1 photons { reflection on refraction on }}
object{
Platform()
texture{
pigment{color rgb 1 transmit .95 }
finish{
ambient -0.3
diffuse 0.8
specular 0.1
roughness 0.1
metallic
brilliance 1
reflection_type 1
reflection_min 0.0
reflection_max 1.0
conserve_energy
}
}
interior{ior 1.5}
photons {target 1.0 reflection on refraction on }
}
and some parts of output attached
any ideas what could it speed up without loosing quality ?

Hmmm...
I would suggest trying 'recursion_limit 1' for radiosity or even totally
omitting it, of course that would require reworking the lighting and
finishes.
The photons are not at all visible to me, you probably need much more.

No tips for speeding it up, but the plastic looks perfect. I'm saving that
finish into a file somewhere.

Given the photons don't seem to be doing anything, you could try leaving
them out...

I would do it but .... my real box produces such effect very clearly. It should
be visible on the border of shadow of corner of walls and base. Of course I'll
check version without photons.

Try ignore_photons, it can make a big differnce. I don't know if this will help
you, but below is a texture for glass that gives me good results with radiosity.
Perhaps you could modify it for the plastic you want. Use global_settings {
ambient_light 0 } with it though.

You are wrong :-(
I've removed recursion_limit and rendered it during weekend. With removed
recursion_limit it was even 9 hour longer and result _IS_ the same even without
working with lighting and finishes.

Well.. I've checked this without photons, but ... only shadow on the desk
disapeared and render took 44 hour.

I have checked your settings. They decreased render time to 18 hour. Still to
long for animation :-( but nearly the same. Thanks.
