hmmm my car is actually my second one, too. did a BMW M3 (bmw rulz; i never rendered it, though, mesh is still somewhere around on my HDD) brushing my teeth while writing this :P wasnt there a request for a compositing material that catches shadows? but for now i think it will be just fine with the ...

oh thanks for the explanation, but im a ps noob (also i dont even have it)

after this car i really have to put some serious effot in my next one

very nice design indeed. looks like there isnt much room for the engine, though


cool render btw. wanted to use this hdri for my car but i wanted to render in inigo(no idea how to integrate the hdri), so im building an scene right now

edit: arrrrrrrrrrr, i love it

@j_07

a while ago i did a testrender for that.

link to the image

from left to right exponent = 1.0, 1.5, 2.2

yes it has some influence

very nice modeling. looks promising

second that, too.

really need this for some scenes.

very nice. no more renders with crappy tonemapping settings.


i would love if there was the possiblity to type in the values

no new version, sry. im working on a little scene atm. fight started for no reason. just some drunks looking for trouble. just the good old "what you looking at?" must have hit some teeth. i have a very deep cut on the knuckles of my right hand and im not really able to use my indexfinger. cant even...

could you post a screen of the setup of your scene?

looks really really strange to me

yes, i am aware that this page exists

wohoo, thanks!


what exactly is hybrid mode?

looks strange

i think cauchy_b might be too high. but i dont know. the value for glass is 0.003

@isabel: formulations? what do you mean with that?

@kram: what i meant was the wick (german: docht)

thanks guy, especially to you, Zom-B. you are probably right. my 3D work is probably the only chance to get into that, but only if they look at that before they look at my grades... but enough of that. little overnight render (click the image for a larger version): http://i161.photobucket.com/albums...

there is no maximum value. minimum is 1.

the reflection doesnt get sharper but stronger the higher the value is. unlike to phong materials where the exponent controls the sharpness the reflection is always sharp.
