Nice Vray Render Settings?

[Catlin]

Hey there guys,i was just wondering if you lot could tell me which settings ur using for ur scenes because i just got me myself a copy of vray and dont get me wrong the renders look kickass but they took to damn long to like test even with res set to 320 x 240 but anyway i followed this tutorial i found and it seams to be the same kinda thing as brazil i now know what im doing,but i just need to know how i can make them renders a little bit faster im using 2 VRAY lights each side at the moment and a groud plane

if you are using indirect illumination, then i usually change the irradiance map pressets to high for final render and low for preview render
be sure tthat hsph subdiv is at maximum 50, this value also improves greatly your rendering time, for preview render choose only 8
then in advanced irradiance map pressets for interpolation type choose delone triangulation and for sample lookup choose precalc s overlapping, this will make you very very nice looking shadows
and you can always save your irradiance map for that one camera view, so save and then load it, but this works only for a camera view, for other you should render it again with single frame and then save it, this greatly improves your rednering time, if you are trying to test materials
image sampler: i usually change to adaptive subdivision and then in min rate i choose 1 and max 2, but for preview rendering is 0 to 0 fine

hey youve figured out the antialiasing trick eh.

You can get high quality renders like #1 by fooling around with the adaptive qmc settings, or was it the other one... hmm cant remember.

well i see that you wanted to know how to get the thing on the bottom of your pics to show rendertime and version of vray ur using, press f10 to get ur render settings open then go to the tab "renderer" and at the very bottom should be a title something like so: "Vrayystem" click on that and look for something called "Frame Stamp" and that will add the little line on the bottom of your renders once the render is done, enjoy!
