Interior daylighting

[akinlolu olugboji]

First shot at interior daylighting since AR3, 60 passes and still going, will those dining chairs ever resolve? Being at it for two hours now. Latest build, default light settings except for the colour tone down to 0.5.

Any pointers at this stage is highly welcomed.

Often, when I let the engine work all the night, it mean 2 hours ;o)

Finally packing it in at 2005 passes 78

It looks nice-- I'd love to have this one for testing.  It will probably go in my pile of very difficult lighting that I'm currently working on.  Use the upload link, if you're willing, and let me know if there are any special views, etc.

Here's what I'm getting on the big box after just under 1 hr.  My version is somewhat different than 260-- so it's a little hard to compare directly. 700 x 490 resolution.

Well I use build 259 and was afraid of updating during the rendering least it crashes the process, so looking forward to build 261. 

Question is will build 260 as it is now give a very faster noticeable result in far less passes, while we await 261? 

[Roy Hirshkowitz]

Not sure-- depends on the model.  I'm not sure if 261 will make a big difference for you either.  If you're not actually rendering or facing an imminent deadline I would update.

BTW-- having the thing Autosave every 2 passes is a pretty bad idea.  It's going to slow you down quite a bit.

[akinlolu olugboji]

Bad habit I picked up using my laptop when the battery got bad to save every two passes to be sure I do not lost much when am away from the desk and the laptop wicked out. Will repent of it.

[George Ioannidis]

It will surely resolve really nice I believe. It looks good now, just needs some more passes. Let it cook till it'll taste good :)
