roy, i have checked the box for no alpha transparency,i even increased the ior for the red glass Hybrid engine still struggling.

Roy i will run it and check the alpha transparency,just to be sure

Comment by Roy Hirshkowitz on October 2, 2012 at 8:16am

I bet the red glass is related to the alpha transparency issue as well.  You can tag the object as "No Alpha Transparency" and see if that makes a difference.

It's also pretty hard to compare the engines unless your scene is identical.  The exterior stuff present in the first example can greatly alter the light paths in the rendering.

I'd have to look at the material to be sure.  I wonder if I implemented self luminance in that engine? (I think so, but I'll check.)

Roy, i have run the same image on HYBRID for 2hours and 40 min =295 pass

you can see from the image the Hybrid render engin strugles with coloured red glass and the the painting on the right.Is there a reason to why the image on the TV set is lighter when you path tracer than Hybrid?

Thank roy,i will give it another run on the Hybrid and we can compare.

It's really nice work-- but obviously may not be practical for you.  If you get a chance, try the Hybrid engine and see if it does any better.
