OTOY Forums

Hi!

I did a massively 7200x4500 render with 6.5k displacements and 3.8m triangles.. Didn't do colour correction. It's a raw. I used up my 4GB VRAM by 92% .. with only 300mb headroom. 10 hours of baking time.. Reaching 1100 samples. Reason of slow reader: subsurface scattering & displacement

Threw in so much as I could without triggering out-of-core memory. It was a great practice to understand what resize option I should give for each texture (D/B/SP/OP).

I'm uploading scaled version of 1024x640 (OTOY forum won't let me upload big stuff).

There are 23 figures in the scene. One of them is an easter egg from a movie.

wow, impressive
I would like to see also the high res version, with so many details it will a pleasure to look at
I think I have found all the 23 guys, but I am not sure in who is the easter egg... the guy with just one eye?

that is huge! LOL, looks like you had fun

Pardon the watermark. You never know what they'll do with it.. (i.e.: make profit out of my hard work)..

What do you think?

Scratch that, I realize DAZ3D.COM forum is the one with restriction not this forum. Awesome! Here's the full resolution!

wow,great, thanks for sharing
I wonder if the transmission on the leaves is not too dark

Good catch! Totally forgot about those leaves' materials. If I were to add transmission, I wonder how much further it will slow down the render. I got around 0.98/spm with GTX 980.

I guess displacement and scattering were taking toll on the performance.

I'm impressed with OCDS plug-in's auto materials. I left everything untouched for the enchanted forest except river water. Used one provided in OTOY online library.

I discovered a bug.. I'm not sure if the bug is known. I think UV mapping will be lost if resizing texture for bump mapping beyond 1/2 setting (1/3, 1/4 and forth). They happen on Genesis figures. Can you confirm?

when resizing textures, my UV did not break. However I have not used it extensively since 2.x allows for OOC memory, so Vram is no concern really.

I've used a lot of 1/4 scale textures and have had no problems with the UVs.

Thanks DrHemulen!

Not sure how it happens for me for UV mapping to be an issue.

I try to steer clear of OOC so I could have more 'raw' power. How much is a performance penalty when access to OOC memory?
