Abstraction is easy.

Vray is fun.
-
Fast, too.
-
nice rendering
-
Thanks.
Still WIPing away. Just noticed the table's stuck in the wall.
-
Lol, how did that happen?
great rendering however.
-
I blame it on morning fuzzyness.
I'm very pleased with Vray. While it seems expensive, I feel it's worth every penny. Not gonna be doing a lot of Maxwell interiors anymore, I think.
-
Still a wip. Of all the members of this site, I must be the slowest at modeling.
-
Nice detail and renders, they're very simple but interesting at the same time IMO.
And well.. just take your time, that you would be "slower" doesn't mean you're badder..
But can I ask your specs? As you have so many details in your office building..

Thanks. I use an 8-core Mac with 16 gb of ram.

Wow, stinkie, aka Tom. I just stumbled onto this thread. I've always been partial to these gray (grey) clay-like images. You've done a great job here. These look wonderful; it;s hard to pick a favorite.
-
Thanks, Ron. Yeah, monochrome renders work well. The last set (the interior) will be fully textured in the end though. Want those to look as realistic as I can possibly make 'em. Should be an interesting challenge.

Is V-ray using all 8-cores when rendering?
-
I actually think it does as I have rendered on a vanilla Pentium 4 and a hyperthreading pentium 4 (pseudo-dual core) and there was only 1 render bucket shown in the VFB on the former PC and 2 in the latter. I have also seen on quad core machines 4 buckets so I can only assume it does make use of all cores.
-
Great stinkie! Can wait to see the final version of those interior images! I think it's a smart thing that you played first with the clay materials, creating the lightning as you wish, and then apply the final materials! I think that's the way professionals do they work too!
-
Great work stinkie! Really nice! the model on the table is a fantastic idea and I may have to borrow that concept at some time.
As far as Vray....I have a dual proc quad core and I still only have 2 buckets. So I would have to say it is 1 bucket per processor. I think you see 2 buckets on a Hyperthreaded P4 because vray see those as a proc but I could be completely wrong. I only know that I only see 2 buckets when rendering. Now if I use the DRSpawner and use the rest of the computers in the office then things really move. You can install DRSpawner on 10 other machines legally and it is extremely easy to set up and get running. It took me, at most 10 minutes, and that was walking from machine to machine. My renders times were cut by 60-70%!. Well worth the 10 minutes of set up time.

I have core2 quad, and I have 4 buckets. As far as I know, v-ray assign 1 bucket per processor(core). I have home one hyper-threaded P4, and I have 2 buckets! Maybe someone more experienced could bring some light in this problem.
-
I dont think so, if i remember correctly vray runs within the SU process so it can only run on one core.
edit: people more knowledgeable then myself say otherwise though, so probably better to listen to them
-
There is no problem Stefan, its behaving exactly as it should. A processor with Hyper-Threading enabled is treated by the operating system as two processors instead of one (even though its not actually a dual core chip!)
ScottPara: I'd check out your task manager (or however you manage the multiple cores and see if the process has been limited to 2 instead of 4 for some reason.
