Basic video tutorial

Hi,

I have captured a small basic video tutorial for the VRayIso. This might also be interesting for those who want to get the idea of the plugin without having to install it.


Here's the clip

Best regards,

object space and motion blur

Hi,

I have a first test with the new object space and motionblur support. I just have to fix a few things regarding the motion blur settings. I have hardcoded a motion blur duration of 1.0 right now and interval center 0. I have to fix this before I can send this out.
The test is rendered with the new VRay GI engine for animation already. It's really amazing how good it works. The test was rendered with low settings and rendered about 1:30 minutes per frame including 20 seconds GI Prepass.

Movie
I had some talks with people who said that they can do that with mental ray volume shaders. I did a few tests with them and I couldn't get GI with them. Additionally I couldn't get rid of the sharp edge to the object boundary.

Best regards,

Dieter
