New Build (305)
Mostly more work on e4. There were some reports of trace instability with the previous build. Let me know if this build seems stable.

to update to the new biuld do I just reinstall the program?
does it change any of the works in progress?

Just install the new build. The process uninstall the former build and installs the new one. It does no changes to work in progress.

If it's a specific drawing, send it. Otherwise there isn't much I can do.

Try a very simple model with simple materials. If all of your models contain displacements this is likely the culprit.

Last time I checked, the bathroom one appeared to run with displacements-- just very slowly. I need to check to see if there's some problem or if it's just a characteristic of the engine. My models with displacements run just fine with this engine. Not sure what's going on with yours. The displacements in the bathroom scene were very finely tesselated, minimally displaced, and viewed very closely. Any single one of these factors could be contributing.

Same model, same view, different engines. Some contour problems where model meets background image.

e4 right? Background edge is a problem I just fixed (I think)-- other artifacts are caustics which should resolve after a bit more (I think.) If you suspect something is wrong send the model and I'll take a look. Note the small stem wall behind the arched canopy-- those lines are caustics (I think.)

Sorry Roy, image file names contain all information - passes, engine, time etc.

Ah-- what does 305 mean?

Never mind-- brain problem.

I'm considering making reflective caustics optional for e4, probably a material editor switch. Refractive caustics would still happen automatically. The net effect of this is that the reflective noise we're seeing due to shiny surfaces would go away (unless you ask for it.) Swimming pools, glassware, etc. would still exhibit caustics.

CAN WE GET PETER MILNER TO TRAIN SOME OF US FOR A TOKEN ?
Good day, forum members,I was thinking that we could each, if interested, contribute a significant token to give Peter Milner and David to train us virtually in nxt render for Autocad. Am not sure he still uses it but the experience he has spanning over 20 years cannot be underestimated. I wish the forum co-ordinators could look into this. So that more of us will produce realistic renders with the paid version of nxt render and we will be able to encourage other users of other more advanced…See More
LIGHT STREAKS IN ACCURENDER STUDIO
Good day everyone.Does anyone here know how to create light streaks in ACCURENDER studio or in nxt render ? Please share your knowledge with me. Light streaks for interior ceilings in the p.o.p works and under, a t.v console. See More
3D_Replication final
I created this replication of one of Peter Milner's renders, not with AI but with sketchup (with the matchnewphoto tool), autocad and nxtrender.Critics and comments are welcome.
My V.R Panorama Project
Good day everyone.I have been working for sometime on a V.R panorama project. Its a personal project. I used sketchup to model and imported it into arstudio and rendered 6 panorama views at 3k pixel.Check it out here…See More
