week 11

Slowly heading towards the no sleep direction. I have stumbled on a couple of issues on my project. Which I have documented in my report. These issues ranged from gamma output issues to trying to boost my render time faster. I only realised over this weekend to how long it actually takes to render an image with a high resolution. Which did make me panic and have a casual though minor mental breakdown/quarter life crisis. I have adopted my sisters laptop for rendering and also have been rendering both on my bootcamped laptop and my own desktop. I am considering going to uni and taking up some computers to render as well lol.


I will be nearing the end of my additions to my apartments now. All that I wish from you all is to PRAY FOR ME. Though there is on pro to this visualisation project. While waiting for everything to render I have been able to keep up to track with my report. (Y).

Learnt so many things in the past 3 weeks, ranging from HDRI dome lights, VRayIES lights, and VRay Displacementmaps.

I have been focusing a lot on the quality and value of textures in my renders, which is partially why I think they have been taking so long to render. (due to the 3D mapping).

I have also found region rendering to be more useful, as I tend to make small changes to small parts of scene and instead of re rendering the whole section or if I just intend on testing a section, region rendering comes great in handy.
