CJSpud Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Here's a good video from CA from awhile back that will help you with your ray traces when you do them: https://video.chiefarchitect.com/?search=ray+tracing+tips+and+techniques A little over an hour long but very good information about adjusting materials types, materials properties, lighting, etc. to get good ray traces. Won't help you with render views but .... if you're taking the next step to trying to produce near photo quality images for your clients, this is a video you should watch.
