Re: Bedroom

very nice, congrats to the girl for the color choice too.
the only thing is the woodfloor looks a little "plastic" imho (it's probably the bumpmap)

Re: 3D Rendering Business for Architecture

For 1000 you would need to finish one small project every day so its likely you will need collegues which splits up the profit again. Plus you have expenses....

not to mention you should have one client hiring you for a small project you can do in one day (from modeling to post-pro) every single ...

Re: best settings for interior night shots with emitters

self reply...

ouch, I forgot my "simple" cube emitters actually had 54 quads each and 3 levels of subD applied! lowering their emission to a min (to keep the "emissive" look) and replacing with 6 "ghost" cubes as real emitters solved most of the problems! I was able to set up some more glossy mats ...

Re: OCTANE BENCHMARK: Submit performance scores for your rig!

Hi,

just added my data for a GTX560Ti 2Gb running 2.48b

2.22 Ms/sec and 4:28 to reach 1000s

is it not too much compared to Silverwing's 570 above?
480cores*168s/384cores = 210 -> should I expect 3:30 mins then?

Re: (another thread on) Hardware advice
