Welcome!

I have no ready answer for that - no idea. They are common even with high-end renderers, it is telling us to raytrace a little longer. If you are applying photon mapping best bet is to let it run until a scene will look good to you. Avoid too many lights, ambient occlusion will take care of the dark areas. Let's see in the next version if CA has already found a fix for that.

Try to make your stainless mirror material with .001 bump map...

Here a nice 360 panoramic view. More here http://www.caligofx.net/blog

You may click the Spherical Panoramic Backdrop, find a good wide photo.

Avoid Photon Mapping with your interior scenes. Use Environment Light instead.

Okay, Chief can add this feature if they think this is vital. No problem. Hope they are following this thread and want to hear their opinion as well.

Spot on.

Buttery, can't you understand what Joey is saying?

Use this settings: McGucken.zip

It really is washed out even with lights turned on.

You have to turn on shadows.

It is easier and realistic too aside from being accurate. Material Region will cut automatically where there are openings.

Just deselect "Floor Under this Room".

Try default floor finish (k) = Zero.

Just apply Material Region in the Cross Section/Elevation view, adjust width/depth in the mat region Edit. Then use Multiple Copy to scatter.

Chief has given us Material Region exactly for that.

What speckles?

Hi Kirk, Yes it works fine. Please suggest to the content team to add Blur (Gloss) property to the material class settings. This must be functional to RTs with or without using photons. We can use this to any surface like metals, wood, walls. What I would do at the moment is to apply a customized bumpmap to blur reflections. Attached is a Phoebe RT without photon. The hood is a mirror with bumpmap. It looks right from a distance...

Guilty as charged! yes, thanks Kirk!

Try to load new export path each time: PS. load each new project

3ds from chief crashes in Blender too. I read that we have to download the Legacy file from Corona. Try the attached .dae from x6. chief dae.zip

Please go ahead. Thanks.
