  Re: '59 Caddy Hovercar Raytraces
 
(...) Thanks! (...) Nope, I use L3P. I just use Anton's textures. (...) The heads might look smoother in my last raytraces because I only used one light. Dumb luck, you might call it :) --Bram Bram Lambrecht / o o \ BramL@juno.com (...) (24 years ago, 2-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: '59 Caddy Hovercar Raytraces
 
Bram, Very nice work (as usual)! (...) Do you use Anton's parts library as well? I ask because of the smoothness of the minifigs' head...much smoother than the ones I've rendered using stock L3P output. Will Lego Beach Department of Emergency (...) (24 years ago, 2-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)

(...) being a ray-tracer, tho', I wouldn't know how to fix that... I couldn't possibly do something half as good! Keep it up! And post to .castle! -Shiri (24 years ago, 2-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)

(...) It's hard to say, but with a sky sphere, you will get reflections of a sky rather than a uniform colour in the chrome pieces. It might look better. Fredrik (24 years ago, 2-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)  
 
  Re: '59 Caddy Hovercar Raytraces
 
(...) Thanks! I've begun using references more often--which usually results in more detailed models. (...) I used Anton Raves' chrome texture. I know it's a bit too reflective, but I was feeling kind of lazy... It's hard to check how reflective (...) (24 years ago, 2-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: More LDRAW renderings
 
(...) I am using two fill lights on both sides of the castle with values 0.5*<1,1,1> and the front light has a value of 2*<1,1,1>. That's why the shadows are so hard. Next time i'll try area lights... (...) I am using the tomtree.inc. You can find (...) (24 years ago, 2-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)  
 
  Re: More LDRAW renderings
 
(...) the shadows are a bit hard. Perhaps you could use area lights to make them softer. This will seriously increase the rendering time, though. You could also try to add a few fill lights, but this will also increase the rendering time, I'm (...) (24 years ago, 2-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)

Castle Siege at: (URL) Time: 11 hours 52 mins on my PIII/450 with 256MB Ram. I'll post more pictures of the castle as soon as rendering finishes ;) Enjoy! George (24 years ago, 2-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad.ray) ! 
 
  Re: '59 Caddy Hovercar Raytraces
 
(...) What kind of texture did you use for the chrome pieces, BTW? In my opinion, it has a tad bit too much reflection. I can't see that the parts are silver, I only see the reflection of the environment in them. Also, did you try to add a (low key) (...)

(...) Thanks! (...) I wish...(well, not really. The only thing I could build with pink bricks is Cadillacs :) They really can't be any other color...) You'll notice that the MPD file is in the colors I actually built the model--white. --Bram (24 years ago, 2-Apr-00, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build, lugnet.town, lugnet.cad.ray)
