Candle render Challenge (all render engines)
-
i have done this before but not yet satisfied.. i think i will do again a candle light render.
-
This one was also rendered in Maxwell. The flame is from the online materials library.
-
Andre, very nice. I tried out that same flame material w/ about equal results. It seems like the sample image that was there with the mxm looked better somehow. I couldn't quite figure out what the difference was...
love that wallpaper!

how do you do the flame? do you make a surface and apply the material to it and it just comes out like that, or do you model an actual flame and apply the material to that?
-
You can just apply the texture to a rectangle. The material does the rest. It's basically a clip mapped emitter if I recall.

Hi Troyhome
Unfortunately this material works only 2d, ie I had to have 2 faces to cast the light in 2 directions.
Would like to try and map to a flame model some time.
cheers

How about this? Done in Vue.
No post processing flame is rendered.
-
I'm so-so on the candle but nice flame!

Another animation render (last one I promise) to see how the flame works at different angles.
-
Really nice Pete! Is that an animated .gif used on an alpha plane?
-
I used a cropped .avi on an alpha plane.
-
Could you supplement the .avi with a small omni light as it doesn't appear to have any light casting quality?
-
I have a small omni present, I could bump up the multiplier for more glow.
-
i love the animated flame pete...
-
This dancing flame is really cool

I'd love to enter this challenge; but darnit, my windows PC took a dump yesterday(watch out for the latest nVidia system drivers, at least on the 780i) due to corrupted USB drivers and I can't get into the comp at all thanks to only having USB mouse and keyboard.
Not to mention my monitor picked today to die.
Complaints, I has them! Don't close the challenge yet
! That is, unless there's a way to get Sketchup working on my Linux laptop! -
My Indigo gave me a great day to stop working 
Anyone know the solution? -
hi all
