Fast Final Shaded Render

I used to love the final shed renders that had the really crisp shadow lines. You can still get those if you use the Legacy Shadows check box in the Render Preferences, but how can you get REALLY close to those crisp lines with the newer X6 Render Preferences?. What settings do you use for the almost instant shade/shadow. I hate the soft blurry shadows and hate even more the blurry shadows with jaded triangles. I thought I had it figured out because it worked on one drawing but now it doesn't.

I am doing my first renders & they are taking hours. Would you share your settings so I can give them a try?

We must assume that you mean Ray Trace, not Render.

 

You should post your system specs and other information in your Account Signature.  That will give us a better idea of what the problem might be.  In addition, posting the Plan will also help to find out why you are having trouble.

 

ps:  A Ray Trace can be stopped at any point.  Generally 2-4 passes is sufficient and anything more than 20 passes is a waste of time.
