Default Re: Interior render made with Modo 302 update

Thanks folks. I appreciate the comments. I usually don't post much, but I kind of liked this one. There are still issues, but probably good enough for my purposes.

Justin,

This was lit with some illuminated geometry, an ies light, a couple of area lights and global illumination. I just threw a bunch at it to see what gave me the best results. Pretty simple setup. I probably went overboard with settings, but I wanted to see what overboard would look like. This image was rendered at 4200x4200 with IR rays at 512 and most over the other zillions settings bumped up. Took 12 hours on my dual quad desktop. Truthfully, I did a couple with settings turned down and the difference was really negligible. The render included with this post only took 30-45 minutes as I recall (3,200x3,200). Not all the lights were in place yet.

If you need specifics, just ask and I'll do what I can to get the right info to you.

Fran,
Thanks. I've seen your work. It's an honor to hear that from someone of your abilities. I wish I could get to that level with my work! I don't use the modeling too much because most of the time "speed" is an issue. I make all the architecture in SketchUp and import furniture form different sources depending on the job. I don't believe Modo is ready for prime time when modeling ArchViz work quickly. Maybe one day. It is a very good modeler for other fields though–just take a look at the Luxology site and you will see some very nice work.

SandmanNinja. Thanks. I'm old and me head is clogged up too!
