I still got a question.proxis have made my escene very small (file size) and that's why I can make such render size in short time.am I rigth here?. (renders are under "work in progress" at this very site)

Here are a couple of examples of the grass proxies. Īlthough, I had to change the "grass" (weed) of my first attempted escene to a completelly different type of grass: "marehalm" (danish particular type of grass), the combination of vrimg format & proxis (what a fantastic tool ) have made my old pentium 4 with 4gb ram running with windows 32 CRUNCH the A3 size render in only.2 hours!! We learn something new everysingle day, yep, you guys, alfienoakes & spooner, were rigth. can't realy see the renders at big size tho.


I added a sphere in the pic with vray fyr which looks very nice.but it's very slow to render, tho great for "close up" must be a photoshop master !.have seen your site and the grass looks nice. Want a bigger area covered?, simply make instances.and good luck with your render.hope it won't collaps, like mine did. Make a 1200 x 1200 mm plane, assigning a grass mat/colour (bitmap) of your choise, then aply a "vray displacementmod" modifier with a tex map linked to a vray displacement map (white bitmap with black dots with different sizes spreaded) using a hight of 100mm or whatever feets your escene, with 2.0 pixels edge and 512 subd will make a nice 3D grass.just like this one. I'm not a genious, but here u gor a little tutorial of how to make shuch grass: Promise to update you witn my results as soon as I have them. Sorry guys.I have not made the test yet with the A3 size render (very busy making shops at work & no time to try the grass displacement at home) I may still go for crazy's suggestion afterwards.tho only for my own pc, not for the comapany's pc's where I work as designer. I have not tried.yet, but a combo of vrimg and not overlapping faces it will solve my problem.I suppose. Got the rigth and final vray 1.5 version BUT you nailed ARTEC, my array was not done properly and faces were overlapping each other.THX for the tip Sorry about the bushes.this is only a test Very sorry but I don't agree about the photoshop grass.this 3D grass seems very nice to me it can be seen on almost any kind of shape, terrain, surface, etc and it is great for LONG areas. Overlapping faces cause crash in higher resolutions. There is not such a problem.ĭespite of this, you may chack the geomerty of your grass. I'm 99% sure that you are not using the final release 1.5 final or 1.5 SP1.

This was a bug in the program till release 1.5RC4. Now on the question: Please verify the Vray release version.
