[req] Average IGI merge

Post by pixie » Wed Jul 25, 2012 2:44 am

The topic may or may not be misleading, but I hope it can be clearly understood with the pictures I'll post.

So that I could give more samples to a more troubled area I tried to do a render region on the area, my idea was to merge both igi.
The result:

What I desired to accomplish:

(those from last picture are magnifications of the region area)

You could simply paste the render region'd part over the larger image, i.e. replace instead of trying to merge them.

It'd still be nice if the merging respected the cropped image though :P

Side note: I can see merging being very useful for combining the strengths of the different render modes... Haven't tried it, maybe I should.

But one would have an higher sample on that region

It doesn't really matter, in both cases (adding or replacing) you need both to be sufficiently clean that you can't see the border.

You can also just soften the edge of the cleaner part in Photoshop to blend it in. Better yet, use a speckly brush to really blend it nicely.
