As a matter of fact, for /realistic/ motion blur simple averaging of the
images /is/ the proper method. Whike the "opaque object with transparent
trail" look is a common staple - probably invented to give the
impression of motion while at the same time preserving object detail -
it is outright wrong.

Thanks, clipka... I knew I wasn't going crazy :) Maybe MJF is confusing motion
blur with tracers?

The "opaque object with transparent trail" is also what you get
with a flash light synced on the rear curtain and a long(ish)
exposure time (if you don't sync on the rear curtain, the "trail"
will be in front of the object, or sometimes on both sides).
For example:

Actually, you're not. While it's true that any given _map is limited to 256
entries, you can nest maps to exceed that limitation. You're pretty much
averaging averaged pigments at that point :)

Sorry, I don't know what I mixed up, may be impressions from ads, I took for
photographies or something like Jerome presented. Tracers certainly not, because
I first had to look up the wikipedia what this could be... But is superman very
far away from them?
Yes, as ever clipka is right, as is clear, if one thinks a bit more before
posting...
Best regards,
Michael

No need to blush;-) I only thought that my cheap trick could interest you
regarding your former profession.

Oh, absolutely. In fact I have been thinking about the contour line
possibilities for a long time without getting very far. So, I see great
possibilities in your technique.
But with regard of the motion blur proper, I have been thinking about
how to use the averaging method (to replace the Megapov application)
without loosing to much (render) time. One thing your comment above made
me think of was (1) to isolate the moving object from the scene proper,
(2) animate it to get motion blur on a transparent background and
average the frames, and finally (3) average the blurred object image
with the scene image.
While more work than with Megapov, I suppose that it might work, and it
probably is the technique used originally by Megapov, but then embedded
into the code.

Thanks, I just investigate if exr-pictures can achieve an improvement after
having reached a certain approximation of the landscape with png.

Sounds great, I think, this is the way to go.

Second thought: average the images with the transparent background and layer the
result over the original scene only. Otherwise the original scene (background)
has a chance to come into the object in motion. Ok, may be only to a small,
hardly visible amount...
Best regards,
Michael
