You've to change two settings ...

me wrote: LM Probability: 0.1 -> 0.4 Who is putting this to 0.1? SmartDen/Wedge?
Supersampling: 1 -> 3 Do you know what it does? To make it short, it's an
image scaling factor that helps a lot with noise/fireflies and aliasing artifacts
at high contrast areas. So for final images put it at least to 2, 3 is better.

btw. 9h for an interior with an unbiased renderer, even with three
machines is nothing! And now, have fun!

take care

thx psor - so, how long are u cooking ur interiors usually? 20hrs? more?40hrs???

what can u recommend regarding other settings? are they correct 4 this type of scene? what if i change EP's in windows into a glass and will put a textured plane with background? should i change any settings to get things faster or cleaner?

ps i've put supersampling on 1 to minimize my frames - router gets cooked when both slaves are sending frames in same time...but i will give it a try to increase this value

20 to 30 hours on a quad core is not unusual for interiors. And that doesn't mean they'll clear up completely. Sunlit interiors are among the toughest scenes for Indigo.

now that we are some kinda far away from the topic i want to ask something else.

i set up the material of the floor with a basic planket-texture. but i always store the textures in my indigo directory because blenigo doesnt write the path of the textures correctly... and even if i store them in the indigo dir i have to delete "../../" in front of every texture-name.

so what is the easiest setup for textures?

OS? Indigo and Blendigo version?

Linux, last stable version of indigo. Indigo 0.6test6 (beta1) export script

Edit: now im going to upgrade both. indigo and blendigo. so just wait a moment^^

i suggest you get indigo 1.0.6 and blendigo 1.0.5 beta

got it. but i dont like wine. the new indigo-version works way slower than before. i used the linux-binarie and now i have to emulate it with wine

moreover the paths are still not set correctly

hey - that was issue i was struggling sometime ago but i noticed smartden and afaik he updated blendigo and now it works fine
CHECK "RELATIVE PATHS" SETTINGS WHEN LOADING TEXTURES IN BLENDER
AS BLENDER TENDS TO PUT IT: //textures/texturefile.jpg AND BLENDIGO TRIES TO USE THIS PATH

this should help
