Re: Kitchen challenge

Why don't you explain what the problems are, I know there are some construciton lines or something that cause problems and are just made into nulls, but the files imported into different programs and I didn't see any major problems, but I haven't explored in depth, so a list of problem areas would help out, all I see is triangulation and one error in the floor.

Branko sent me a dwg file I will look at it and see what can be done

Re: Kitchen challenge

I think the .dwg will help, it support quads so there will be no triangles for one.
I could post some wires, but it is poly model in max, no triangles and very few polygons. Only areas that I was expected errors are smooth objects lile bowls, sink and apples, but with this .dwg that should be fixed.
I am sorry that problems occurred, cause of the simplicity of the scene I actually did not expect any of that to happen, but seem that new max is not so friendly to other apps...

Re: Kitchen challenge

Max can export as .obj but I avoid doing that hoping to get proper conversions. Why - simply because I tried it and it somehow break up the geometry in the pieces, at least it was the case when I import it again for check. I will try again, but I suggest you use the .dxf it is cleared from triangles and errors I believe...
I willl check one more time the .obj export and if it work, I will replace the previoous and let you know...

Re: Kitchen challenge

Hi Branko,

Thanks for the challenge!
That's my three images of your scene. I have to work a bit more but it's a good start for a rendering beginner I think. I'm software developper so all your comments are welcome.

I made it with RTSquare, I write the rendering time on the images.


Image (1200x800 px, 201 418 polygons) rendered in 5min 28sec on an ATI X1900 GT with: - Global Illumination - Skylight - soft shadows - reflections - antialiasing 3x3


Image (1200x800 px, 201 418 polygons) rendered in 11min 05sec on an ATI X1900 GT with: - Global Illumination - Skylight - soft shadows - reflections - antialiasing 3x3 - Depth of Field


Image (1200x800 px, 201 418 polygons) rendered in 7min 13sec on an ATI X1900 GT with: - Global Illumination - Skylight - soft shadows - reflections - antialiasing 3x3

Good luck to all participants!
Nico.
