Help Adding Fog to Scene (project file included)!
Posted: Wed Jun 14, 2017 11:06 pm
Ive been hearing a lot about the environmental fog features in V3 so downloaded and modified a scene from the internet (beeple) and added some smoke to try get to grips with it. Heres how the original looks:
I thought the neon tube lighting would look great with some moody dry-ice type fog, but I just cant seem to get a good result!
Hopefully you can see the style I'm aiming for though:
The problem is theres so many variables and options (density, volume step length, absorption color, scatting color, phase, noise shader, emision brightness, camera exposure, bloom etc!) that its a bit overwhelming!
The second issue is that, as you can see, the resulting images with fog all seem to be extremely noisy. Even with high samples and tweaking the GI Clamp and Coherent Ratio parameters.
The demo scenes provided here are good for learning some of the basic principles, but are not production quality scenes so when it comes to actually making something that looks presentable its easy to get a bit lost in the options!
So I thought the best way is if someone could kindly download the scene and tweak it until it looks good then re-upload then we could all use the settings as a good starting point for other scenes.
Many Thanks
