Great stuff NEX but I think you got AA problems... you should try to render with following Radiance's tutorial. It's on the Resource part of the forum!NEX wrote:My entry, so far...

Also would be lovely to see some sun love going on
Yeah, i know...but i couldn't render it in resolution any higher than this...it just keeps crashing. Registry hack just gives me more time, but crashes anyway 
As for the sun- i'll see 'bout that, thx

Thanks Radiance and Roubal.
@Roubal, when you refer to the last, I understand that you mean the order of images in my post, precisely because the latter is the first thing I did. In fact it is with the beta1 where there was no alpha, or normal map, etc ... With the beta2 redid the scene and replaced the hdr with a ldr (use linux). The first version was:

Here I put a new rendering of the scene, this time at 3000x1500 (scaled to 1500) and 1 hour. Another version

Hi guys,
we're decided to prolongue the competition, so people have plenty of time to add more submissions with the upcoming beta2.1 version, giving mac and linux users a equal advantage.

So there are no new features in the new release for windows ? its purely OS related ?
Currently i can barely render anything anyway, just keeps crashing

no, it has a lot of bugfixes for windows too, but more features, including animation support, multi-gpu rendering and others.ltchest wrote:So there are no new features in the new release for windows ? its purely OS related ?

also, i don't understand why you're copy keeps crashing. octane is rock solid nowadays, except for some nodegraph editor connection issues.
you should really try to fix it, it's probably a driver related issue.
