OTOY Forums

Hi guys.

I've been working with Octane for a while but have been real bad at posting on forums, so I thought that ought to be changed.

So, today I felt like taking a break from work stuff for a few hours and focus on a completely different thing, and here's what came out. I let it render with path tracing for about 4 hours in around 4000x2500 but it probably got noise free much earlier than that.

Please keep posting. These are excellent results.

Nice work!

This is awesome!

Would you mind sharing your workflow or setup for that coffee foam? ive been trying to create something like this without success.

Yeah that foam is stirring up a lot of questions.

Displacement?

Looks good but 4 hours is super slow for this simple scene with your hardware.
Should be more like 15 min...

PT at 4000x2500 - 4h is ok on 2 Titans, but hard to say whether this might be much quicker.

I would definetely avoid to show this to the competition as an example of Octane's speed-advantages.
Tell someone in the Corona forum to buy 2K gpu's to render this scene in 4 hours. Big laugh.
And for the resolution: this is pretty much standard production size, if not higher (5000x3000 I would say).

If you take this scene as as a benchmark I don't wanna know how long a complex interior with many lights would render. 30 hours? 60 hours?

Except thats not how long it takes. He said about 4 hours.... he started rendering and walked off. Could have probably been clean much faster than that.

The reason I say that is because I do 5k renders that are much more complex than this and they take at the most 25 minutes

if its IBL hdr it resolves a lot faster
are there any extra geo lights with texture/bb emmisions? It might take a while for the reflections on the cup to resolve
No specular stuff also, maybe some sss on the milk, so yeah my guess with that hardware would be like 45 mins?

Very nice. Nice detail and I would also like to know if displacement was used for the foam. Thanks for sharing.
