Testing and old model with NXt

[Alejandro Testa]

Hi guys, just testing and old model with Nxt.  The first two images are with Nxt, the last one in ar3. Any comments will be really aprecciated.

In this line up AR3 is the winner, partly due to the post production. Ground plane and plants. The night scene is not being helped by the HDRi map used.

Hi Akin.  I usually d´ont work to much in exteriors and I spent much  more time in the ar3 image. Well.  in the original ar3 image I use all ar3 plants, now I use RPC plants (just testing) .  I am trying to see if in the future I will use  only onte type (Nxt or RPC plants) or a combination of both.

I do keep my nxt tree near by but favor RPC because their low impact on system performance. Usually no time for post production.

Same here - my workflow does not reward heavy post-production and the more I can do within the rendering engine the better. Again, I tend to require multiple renders of the same view with different materials or slight model variations - I can't spend additional time on every rendering to add plants, people, color balance, fix an odd thing, etc. I would have to do that again and again and would actually limit comparison between images.

 

That is why I tend to have complex (but small area) models with many many materials - and why I continue to press for better material controls in AR5.

 

Oh, and the AR3 is the winner here.
