Ouch...I am sorry to hear that Jackson.
In my experience, customer service of Podium has always been good for me.
I hope your case is the exception.It wasn't really their fault, I know they're good guys (I know TBD from the old SU forums and I spoke to Ioannis years ago when KT was still half command line UI) and the Podium guys were quick to respond to my emails, but I just find the demo system they've implemented too frustrating to be able to learn the program.
I guess you bought Podium, because if you download the demo (like I did) it automatically disables itself every 30 days and you have to download it again regardless of whether there's an actual update or not. They said it's to help ensure people are running the latest version, but it's a just a pain as far as I'm concerned.
... and besides, now I'm hooked on VRay render times.
-
Same scene but with vegetables
This time rendered with Vray. -
same scene with fruty vegetabels.
like them both, don't know what i like more in the vray scene
the water is to green in the podium version vray is better, you should combine them -
Apart from the nude and the diamond shaped leaves in the foreground I MUCH prefer the VRay image- everything about it, the lighting, the reflections and oh that water! :esurp: Really fantastic work- I've concentrated on VRays interior capabilities, but you have proven that it can produce top-notch exteriors.
Did you set up the water yourself in VRay's material editor using just a bump map or is there a displacement map too? The two things I've found very troublesome in VRay are the bump and reflection mapping- sometimes adding a bump map makes the diffuse map disappear i.e. the texture loses it's texture- it just becomes a flat colour. And reflection mapping has been a complete disaster for me- at best it gives very unpredictable results and at worst it seems to have the inverse effect i.e. dark areas become very reflective and lighter areas less reflective. When I combine bump and reflection maps the results are unpredictable.

Jackson,
I know you are a Vray guy, but just to annoy you I went back to Podium and re-rendered it using the 'noisy settings'I color balanced the 'greens' to a more autumn like color (rusty).
-
Podium: foggy
-
Vray again
-
The last one is just amazing!!
Phew! that takes some beating.
Best SU-vray rendering yet.
-
Thanks
This next one is rendered using Fryrender:
-
very nice!!
How long did render take
-
It rendered for about 1 hour.
-
Great rendering..
easy to do ?
i mean comparing with other renders. -
Fry is buggy for the moment and it took me a while to know the workarounds to avoid the hassles.
The software is still beta, so hopefully things get fixed soon. -
Different light, different colors:
-
really clear (bright) renders.
well done again biebel..
(i'm still waiting to see a render off the most famous belgium man.) -
Alexander is right, that is a very clear and crisp rendering.
What is the price of Fryrender (I could not find it on thier website)
One observation: the Ford logo is mirrored.
-
About 800 euro's per unit.
http://www.fryrender.com/index.php?subpage=buydid you already try a interior render Biebel ?
-
I did render some interiors with Fry, but just like Maxwell, it takes way too long and thus not really usable...
For interiors I prefer to use Podium or Vray.I bought Fryrender at half price in 'pre-order' phase.
Current price (800 bucks) is very high, definitely when you consider the product is still in beta and you can't be sure where it is heading.@Alexander,
Who would that most famous Belgian be? -
