Howw rendering this in video?

@crimsonBen 3 жыл бұрын

dumb question, but what is that "indirect" in the "visibility-tab" for?

@animationpandemic 3 жыл бұрын

Not dumb at all. As far as I understand, that slider controls the contribution of the light to the "indirect" component of the light (that is the bounces the light does after it first hit any surface). That's my understanding, however. The documentation explains it may be better: docs.arnoldrenderer.com/display/A5AFMUG/Lights#Lights-Indirect

@@animationpandemic alright thank you. I’ll check out Unreal and eve. It’s around 4 weeks till the deadline actually with approximately 1 week time left to rendering. Redshift seems interesting but very pricey at 500$. Do you know of a student version of some kind?

@@TheFiftyGangsta account for about 2-3 weeks of getting used to the software, if you switch to Blender/ Unreal. Make sure you set up the scene for render and have some renders done already at least two week 2 before deadline at the latest, even if the animation isn't there. You'll encounter all sort of trivial issues, when you move to a new software.

@user-xy4bs1nm3k Жыл бұрын

Ummm if you just want to see your animation rendered, don't even render with Indirect Diffuse and Specular ( and set those samples to 1, nothing more helps but it will still take longer ). Those can be faked, and your render will go 10 times faster. Indirect is a really expensive luxury if all you want to see is your anim. Toy Story 1 & 2 were obviously rendered without any Indirect lighting or bounces. I had to render an entire feature length movie with just a small render farm, this is what I had to do.
