TBH several of my friend are more than capable of doing an FSR, but I wouldn't ask them till it's ready to have one: the upper saucer would look rubbish next to the new shiny bits!

Once I finish the lower bit I should shoot out another render, if LW 9.5 doesn't go weird again

I finally get to see the whole thing and it looks great!

Andrew,

I had a look at your GI issue, it's causing the white point to go beyond the 192-bit precision in the render pipeline. Drop the GI intensity you should be ok. Directional aren't needed on interior shots either.

Very cool, Andrew! How in the world are you ever going to model the whole thing with textures for the Starship Grandeur movie?

arrrrggggg...... a full view of the station! ....I'm going blind!!!......

Amazing, Mate!

**tobian** · 08-23-2008, 09:41 AM

Haha putting it together like that reminds me.. how much more I have to do!

No idea commander, it is textured now, but right now it ain't never going to render on my computer, ever, except in small parts, and that's no longer me just guestimating, it's fact!

That's a very weird error as it didn't do that in 9.3.1 with the same surfacing! and I know it doesn't need it, but it fills the area with more light, for less luminous surfaces, as it seems to scatter the light more thoroughly Matt!

Well - how about doing a composite?

**tobian** · 08-23-2008, 03:52 PM

Won't really work properly. The surfaces are al built with reflection now, so not only would you have missing shadows, things would be missing from reflection too, which could look quite odd!

Falin · 08-23-2008, 07:01 PM

how about a reduced poly version, like say keep the ouside the way it is, but gut it for rendering, since we all know you've highly detailed the insides too

and realluy, you call any 3d modeling company, show that to them and i bet you'd be hired on the spot, you'd learn to work faster if you're paid for it
