Wow this is really exciting. Thanks everyone involved! I just downloaded it and I am quite excited to test it. The Arthur Liebnau benchmark scene needs really long to load. 1 minute for my 3 GTX 980ti But renders incredible fast. 2 minutes (1 minute from beginning of actual rendering) for a clean re...

What if you increase cauchy B to a value such as 0.005? I also tested it with the measured diamond material you can download. It produces the same effect at the edges. Would be nice to see this fresnel behaviour being taken care of. Normally you don´t need Cauchy B Coeff this often. But if you do i...

Sorry for being so picky. Yes the Aperture Fix got rid of the coloring. But I still get this stange "Artifact" in the rendering with Chauchy B Coeff. The Silhouette of the glass gets much more pronounced (Marked Green). I think there is something off! P.s. I used the old colored rendering for compar...

Thank Sliverwing. Looks like it's a problem with the combination of dispersion (single wavelength rendering), and non-post-process aperture diffraction. Easy workaround - use post-process aperture diffraction only (or turn it off). Oh such an easy fix. Thanks a lot for having a look at the scene! M...

As Promised here´s the scene.
I hope this *.pigs file works!

If not just write me a line!

Dear Raphael, Cindigo will export in scale which is chosen in Render Setting, Enviroment, Scene scale. I think it just takes the numbers from the scene and it just takes them as they are, without conversion. But I am not sure about that. To avoid all the confusion about the scale etc. I make sure m...

This is strange and definately shouldn't look that way. Did you check your scene scale? Cheers, zeiti The Scene scale should match real world. I´m not sure if it fits exactly because I do not know exactly what scale is exported by cindigo. But at least in C4D everything is in scale. This is strange...

Hi there, I just rendered my glass scene again over night (17h) with a little dispersion. However the Result is not giving me what I have expected. Render algorithm was MLT-BiDir but it looks the same in Pathtracing-BiDir. The Renderer was Indigo fo Cinema 4D 3.8.26.2 Cauchy B Coeff was 0.005 Indigo...

Hi Tom, I unfortunately can´t tell you how to comp with Indigo or if its even possible. Just a small note that you probably also know: As reflections are comped additive you probably only will see them in shadow areas (when having a white background) I at least might help you to set up a linear scen...

@ CTZn:

Thats great to hear!
As I am a simple end product user and not a coder I have to live with what I got.
Maybe this is a reason to get more in to programming

Thanks for the feedback!

Cheers,

Gorgious tests and renders.
I´m quite interested in reading this thread discovering the possibilityes of Indigo.
Keep on rocking!

Cheers,
Raphael

Hi There. Here are just my two cents: Different algorithms are better for different situations! The User has to know the strength and weakness of every one of those and use them to the best! You choose different calculations methods based on what light is doing in your scene! Its not the programmers...

I´m with Zom-B here: You also can not compare an average Income of a employed person with freelance rates. As a freelancer you have to have your own insurance, you have to buy the equipment and the software you work with your self, you have to pay the bill for your office and you have to bear more r...

Hi The "waves" of the surface is just a mesh deformer and a highly subdivided mesh. I did not simulate anything. This surface is resting on the top side of the cube (water)? Render time? Thank you The cube is textured with a specular material that has a bit of SSS. The top side of the cube is defor...

You have to understand the algorithms and the pros and cons betweens "Buckets" and "Progressive" rendering. Buckets: Are mostly there to allow better memory handling. Because the picture is only rendering at the area your buckets are located at. This can be more Memory efficient as only parts of the...
