Playing with new Scanline settings.

[NFS Owner]

I havent got time to learn Mental Ray, Vray or Brazil, which I know many others do, so I use Scanline.

Here are some renders with my newest settings, I think they came out pretty well!
What is the most important to know is that I used the Catmull-Rom filter and the Hammersley global supersampler. I played around with them a bit and found a setting I really like.*

Maybe I can use a HDR image instead of self-illumination? Or maybe both? What do you think?

Looks good to me, but the render times seem a bit excessive which is the downside of scanline. It'd be nice to see what your material settings are

Okay, here are screens of my material and my render settings + one more teapot render.

Yeah, I guess.

I am really hoping someone could help me improve my rendering speed, since its rendering times are really slow.
