everyrthing is perfect manitwo. but the liguid needs more detail, i think. the drops looks strange but the whole conpcept is awesome.

Does indigo have shutter speed settings, 'cause there is no motion blur in this scene?

A little motion blur would be nice (even if added in postpro) but I love the overall concept. Has a real "caught in the action" feeling too it.

Did you use a normal map or a bump map for the can?

I think it's awesome!

If you leave the gold NK Data then the liquid won't look so "strange" because of the fluid simulation resolution, because it looks as though it were the proper metallic density (pretty much like mercury), if you render it as water (transparent) then it does look as water (or more fluid density) processed in low resolution.

You can try other metals, considering background color....

But transparent also looks nice!

I like it!

Thank you guys!
maybe i will rerender this with a better fluid resolution and
faked motion blur. (If nick pick this scene - sooner, if not - later

)

Did you use a normal map or a bump map for the can?

i used a bump map cause indigo can't use normalmaps atm, but the bumpmap did his job well i think

You can try other metals, considering background color....

What metal would you use?

now, change the can to a toilet, and you've got a funny scene, too.

good idea

Code: Select all

        <phong>
            <fresnel_scale>0.8</fresnel_scale>

hope this helps

Hey

thanks for the fast reply. I see u use the aluminum nk file.

could you please specify the high and low gain options?
I am new to indigo.

also I have a major issue with the tonal mapping. how did you set settings in for indigo?

manitwo · Post by **manitwo** » Thu Mar 15, 2007 7:57 am

tonemapping: reinhard, kinda standard (3/1/6 or something)

left spot: blackbody, 5100°, gain=0.001

right spot: blackbody, 5100°, gain=0.09

background spot:
- outer part: blackbody, 3150°, gain=0.9
- inner part: blackbody, 6100°, gain=0.4

F.ip2 · Post by **F.ip2** » Thu Mar 15, 2007 8:29 am

mh strange, i worked with the gain setting but nothing happened to me.

I only noticed a change when I was working with the Power(Watt) value.

with 3/1/6 you mean "pre_scale 3 - post_scale 1 - burn 6" order?

i noticed that the indigo exporter does not allow as many values behind the"," for Gain as iin your example. 0.1 thats all i could enter. Looks like i need to hack the xml file. also fresnel is not supported in the exporter.

in which program are you setting up your scenes? is that max?

Kram1032 · Post by **Kram1032** » Thu Mar 15, 2007 8:53 am

yes, it wont give that much decimals for now...
yes, it's everytime prescale/postscale/burn, just as the exporter says

i did that with the old c4d-exporter of blacklizard.
well, if you have problems with these numbers simply multiply them(all) with 10 - the result will be the same.(if you have reinhard tm enabled)
for example:
0.01 instead of 0.001,
9 instead of 0.9,
....
