Setting Max Num Consec Reject To 0

Post by nakile » Mon Mar 26, 2007 8:55 am

I decided to run a few test scenes to see what would happen if I did this.

The following were both done in about two hours on a Pentium 4 running at 2.4 Ghz with Max Num Consec Reject at 0.

From what I understand, this is about as bias as Indigo can get, correct? Even so, those images look good for running a few hours, I think.

I guess I'll have to run those scenes again for the same amount of time, but at 1000.

I hope the <halt_samples> tag will be available soon :D

It's much more relevant than a <halt_time> for such tests !

Strange... I ran the first scene for only an hour with it set on 1000 and came up with this:

Yeah. Really strange. The real question is where did that monkey head that was in the first image go? The real mystery is begining to be uncovered.

that really shows the effect of max_num_consec in an impressive way :D

Quality gets much better, but noise disappears slower.
Therefore, shadowed regions stay extremely noisy.

-> Indirectly lit scenes and scenes with caustics : high max_num_consec
