Description
I tested one of my HDR Map for the light around 128 MB in size .. the render take long on maximum quality possible to 0.5 pixels
the test with the light was just fine, however as you see there are something wrong with the model of the wine glass and the refraction, maybe was to high values I think just now , the reflection show it correct in the ball but not in render, I tried many times without success and cuz the render take longer that 6 hours to render I just give up but don't want to put my time in the trash so here you see the image test render # 167
of the scene , you know I am just still discovering Carrara on my 5th day :)
Full Ray-tracing Render
HDR- background and light
Global Illumination ( sky light )
Indirect full light ( light and AO )
I hope you like

Cool
Looks Great Cath! Love it!
I love it Cath!!!
Is it perhaps what you are seeing is the reflection from inside the wine glass, because the black cup is the same?!?! 6 hours??? Wow, that is a long time. I believe it is the AO. Though AO produces very fine results it is a render time extender. This is looking very good Cath, your Carrara coming along very quickly!!!
How strange, still wonderful though
Six hours is nothing. Refractions, reflections, and settings can hike your render times considerably. I've had carrara renders hit over eight hours; My computer is three years old now, but it struggles at times with the reflective surfaces. I do think the reflective settings may be a tad high for the wine glass, but the reflections on the coffee mug are a tad bit too sharp, too. Perhaps lowering the reflective quality a bit more may make it more like the glass mug I have here at home. The lines in the reflections within the dark smoked glass are softer, not so mirror like. It's a different sort of glass they use in the mug rather than the silver material behind the glass in a mirror-it's hard to compensate for the differences (For me, that is) It's a great test render! I love carrara, I'm glad to watch your foray into 8!
Some lovely looking technical work here! To save myself time and frustration I work with a smaller render size with anti alias fast and accuracy at 4 with No Global illumination Once you got it looking right I then go big and full quality another tip is turn on full settings and just render a small area using the Camera icon Test render (X) Thats just me! Saves on hair!
great scenes Cath! kisses
beau travail!
Yes!!!!! Excellent light!!!! Kiss :)
cool render :D
WOW - Those reflections are amazing!!!
Love this!
Great work, Cath! Your HDR rendering looks impressive, especially for just your fifth day with Carrara. It’s a complex tool, much like an iq test free online - challenging but rewarding! Keep experimenting, and I'm sure you'll nail the reflections soon!
