Hi,

Just saw these renders and I have to say they are stunning. Especially the enviroment. Hoping you could answer a couple questions regarding the process of creation.

What kind of trees did you use? From own library or bought? Itrees? Evermotion?

How many kinds of grass did you use for scattering
What about flowers? You own or bought from a collection?

What kind of lighting did you use from this project?

The texture of the stone wall use vraydisplacementmod or just bumpmap?

The stones/rocks made using a 3ds max script or simple poly modelling?

If possible please show how you made the water puddles on the street. Separate geometry for the water or part of the road texture?

Would love to see some more wireframes if possible.

Kind regards

Yes, definitely a making-of this work would be fantastic.
Francesco could anticipate and render time and how much frames / second you set for the final animation?
A question for an animation without flicker, could guide us where to get such information (even if they are paid) or give a direction so that we can find there. As much as I try to have my animations and flick tests is impractical to make a scene even if small. It is also difficult to send a render farm just to study! It could help us in this direction?
Sorry my English ...

Hi, we have a library with a lot of trees models "ready to use". But yes, we use Evermotion, Xfrog and some Onyxtree models

For the grass we use a Igrass library models. But usually we reduce a lot the polygon count. The Igrass models are too heavy!

Only VRaySun and VRaySky. No HDRI

the stone wall are with Displacement Modifier

Rocks with script

Water is by black and white texture on the reflaction channel. Very easy

40 to 1hr for every frame in HD (1280x720). The animation is 2 minutes long at 25 FPS.
For the animation we used IM+LC with camera path method. See on spot3D tutorial. The problem for the flickerign is the AA. You must to use a high AA settings. Usually, if you have a good global illumination setting, is produced by low AA. In this project, min 2 and max 14 or 16. This is the reason for this high rendering time. For the still, we use Universal setting. No time for a nice making off!

Francesco.

The tutorial spot3D you refer to is the "Rendering a walk-through animation"?

Yes.

Thanks for the answers. Very helpful indeed.

The renders are amazing.

Just another question regarding the grass. How many different kinds of grass (different geometry) did you use on the lawn? I think I can spot atleast 5-6 including flowers, but probably more.

Take care
