[ISL] Rendering depth maps

yes, use length(a - b).
pow() makes baby jesus cry.

fixed

no but seriously this is interesting thread

following closely!

yeah, pow() was a bad choice

sqrt(), too!
i know i really should not use them in speed sensitive tasks...

length(a - b), aye, SIR!

no you broke it

anyway, i'd be interested to know what the relative performance (to the massive rendering engine) is between the two versions... i suspect it'll be quite small?

im testing i right now. it does not seem to be much faster.... will make a comparison by rendering both for 10 minutes.

especially 32bit vs 64bit (non-LLVM compiled) would be interesting

im on a mac atm, so no 32 vs 64 for now.

both images rendered for exactly 5 minutes. 114 spp for the lenght() and 102 for sqrt() and pow(), thats about 11% faster.

btw: using a black albedo material and an emitting material with black albedo one can also fake "object buffers" (thats what they are called in c4d). The visibility of an object to the camera as an alpha map.

Example:

Poor fused, he has no money to buy indigo, please help him...

I have a license, but im at work

experimenting woth postpro DOF and some color corrections with the 'object buffers'.
originally it was a 80% white rendering without dof

ZomB, i hope you dont mind me messing with your beautiful scene

go for it and do what ever you like with this scene my friend

Take care about the depth map if you wan't to use it for PP bluring
since my camera settings generate dof blur.
The depth map rendering is still way to slow for such a feature :/
a 32 vs 64 test would be very interesting, just like lyc said...

I set the f-stop to 64, that should kill all dof.

will do a 32/64 bit comparison when i get back to my 64 bit machine

LLVM jit seemts to work fine from ubuntu & debian repositories, that is odd. (granted i never done anything fancy with it) (im on 64bit)

Maybe it works on 64 bit Linux these days, but not Win 64.
