Very nice animation.

I'm not sure why my sphere renders faster than others. Perhaps because I kept the poly count lower? Higher poly count slows things down. On the other hand, going too low on poly count results in larger polygons, which tend to be "seen" by the ray-tracer more often, and requires more culling. Or maybe it is because my polygons are facing inwards, unlike every other sphere I've ever seen.


Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
