living room 2: mentalray setting

i used 3 photometric lights 1 skylight and1 mr spotlight


the quality is not good due to draft mode

ok let me share with you some of my simple setting for mental ray (MR),
long time ago i myself didn't really know how to hack this stuff, it's damn technical and the old version of MR was purely customizable,not user friendly and pretty tough to handle, normally i use final gather (FG) for standard MR rendering setting.FG is very powerful algorithm. here is another test render with its setting, the image itself is "blocky" since i rendered it with draft mode. some materials i used Jeff Patton's models such as carpet and you can download the setting and model here. Feel free to tweak and send your good pic of it.

talking about hair/fur in 3d? last few decades was a very complex and sophisticated modelling issue but nowadays you can use built-in hair plugin in 3dsmax , above are pics taken from http://www.ephere.com they provide plugin for hair in max, i haven't had a chance to explore the demo version, may be once i got a chance i will see what i can create from this cool toy

updates on test render


not done yet...few more things to be improved...this is the latest

my blog was blocked : another test render


it was pretty bad day since last 2 days, the admin blocked my blog due to spam thingy, finally i managed to prove that i got nothing to do with spam, this site shares knowledge and free model etc.
well last night i managed to do some test render and u can see the living room here got some improvement. no materials applied and still got room for some more improvement.
i cant share the models since they belong to commercial models. i can share the scene file and you can take a look at how did i set up the mental ray scene. Bear in mind that i am rendering this via 8 Xeon CPUs with 8 GB Ram. So i have no idea how long it takes to render via 1 cpu/2cpus.

You can download your 3d scene model here(all interior models were removed) you only will get 3d interior scene.

animation: logo free download


i created 1 simple logo animation with explosion you can download here. Just play around with particle array parameters. feel free to download it here

lastly there are text coming in and particle emits from the text base, you can download here , all max 8 file

we went to disneyland: Hongkong




we just got back from Macau & Hong Kong, feel free to view my pics when i was there...all pics were stolen from my wife website :) here and here


the holiday was fun, but learnt something also, since this is our second time having holiday abroad with our kids...it's not that easy to handle them, anyway disneyland is the best place to learn about design, u can see they designed every single thing and all r very detail, dont forget the 3d show there. :)



free mentalray material, i tweaked for fun


just got back from holidays, we went to Macau & Hong Kong. So i didnt manage to upload and share something during that time, ok above is the scene which i manipulated the mental ray glass physic phenomenon, so you can download the 3dsmax 6 file here and the material in .mat here. U can try to explore and get a better result.
at this stage the files cant be uploaded since the server got prob. i ll upload all related materials once everything is ok,
stay tuned
