strange waves with 1° FOV

Post by chocochoc » Sun Oct 02, 2011 9:57 am

Hi guys,

I'm trying to use indigo for architectural rendering with Sketchup as a modeler.

So with skindigo the tip to get nearly orthogonal views is to use a 1 degree Field Of View and that works ok.

But there is one thing I wonder about : it's the strange waves I get on the render.

Anybody knows about it ?

Hi, I think this is related to having to make the camera very far away from the object to fit everything in the very narrow field of view. Scaling the objects to be bigger / smaller might fix the issues you're seeing, however it's not an ideal solution...

How big is the scene altogether (full extents)?

Had this same problem when I tried making elevations for a project a while ago: http://www.indigorenderer.com/forum/vie ... =5&t=10141

Could we see an orthographic camera in Indigo someday? Awesome for cutting sections, too!

Hi guys,

Lycium> Yes I think it is directly linked to the problem...the scene is 230 x 112 m big and the waves progressively dissapear as I increase the FOV.

StompinTom> Man...an Ortho camera (that would also take Sketchup section planes into account) would be so good ! That's on the top of my wishlist.

Thanks for your answers !

It's definitely something we'll add, and I've added it to our TODO list :)
