Hi all. Modeled this roughly after the courtyard at my work. I've had to alter it signifigantly due to issues with blender obj export errors and octane import errors during the voxelizing stage. Had to take out most of the foliage for now. Still needs a lot of texture work, but you get the basic idea. Let me know your thoughts.

Thanks for the tips guys. I've been using the pretty much the same outdoor hdri for everything thus far, mainly because I don't have any others. Any good places to find good free ones? I'll probably fix the te textures later today/tonight.

Check these hdris
Free and high resolution, and very good quality !
When you download one you got one .HDR and one 8k jpeg.

Thanks for the hdr link. Much better then I have ha lying around. Really good variety too, so I have multiple hdrs now for future projects. Anyway, here is an updated version I've been working on most of the day. Redid the textures so they aren't all stretch out now, although I had a problem with octane crashing after loading in a 4th image texture, no matter what file or material it was for. To get around it I just copied the material from the actual pool area which worked fine. It did still crash from time to time when trying to tweak settings. Might be a GPU memory issue as the 8800gt only has 512mg and it says its at 332mg used. Also I am using fairly high texture files (4096x4096) so I will try reducing them by half and see if that works a little better tomorrow. Also played with the camera response options, which make a HUGE difference, and ISO and such. Image is a little too contrasted I think, but I'll leave that to your opinions. Let me know what you guys think of it now.

Yeah, the reflections are pretty high. With how Octane has been acting, once I have he camera angle set and all the materials semi right I just let it render. The more I tweak it, the quicker it seems to crash. I just reduced the image textures by half which is making it operate better, but I need to get to bed as I have an early day tomorrow. Also did some other texture improvements to the fountain and back wall. I'll try to get something else up tomorrow night when I get home, and also see what else people have to say.
