e1 or e4?

[Alejandro Testa]

Hi guys,  I am still testing e4. I still think that e1 get better results in terms of quality but I want to see works that compare both engines and  your comments.  Thanks in advance. In this case I tried both engines and the grass in e4 looks strange.

Kann mir mal einer erklären was E1 und was E4 ist???

Ich arbeite hier mit Build 310.

Hi Alfons,   E1 and E4  are two different rendering engines  developed by Roy

E0 is packet tracer

E1 is path trace
E4  is the new engine that we are testing.    All of them are available in Nxt 310, also in previous versions.  You can  try e4 typing after loading Nxt  in the command line  (nxtengine 4).  Path trace is available using the standard nxt menu under  the advanced tab. 

Best regards, 

Alejandro

Except for the issue of displacement as seen with the grass (of lighter shade) E4 does it better for exterior in my view and often E1 does better for interiors.

Gibt es denn auch E2 und E3 Rendering??

E1 ist ein Path Tracer, also eine Kameraweg Animation oder??

Wo sind die Unterschiede zwischen E1,E2,E3 und E4 genau erklärt??

E1, the effect is good (indoor and outdoor), but it takes too long.I did not use it because of

Hi Alfons,  E2 and E3 are  other two engines thar have been  testing but Roy  let them out, he is not developing them anymore, at least that is the information I  read on the group.

Thanks Akin and Kingin.  I really likes E1 interiors, maybe Roy can take a look  over the grass issue abd the lighter shadows. What do you think about rendering times between both engines to get similar quality?
