Quote - > Quote - Still have not been able to upgrade to Reality 2.5, due to financial restraints :(.....as a result, due to the size, and the fact that I transformed the entire cave to mirror settings in Reality, this one took almost an entire week to get to 489 s/p, with a lot of noise, so I had to use the Neat noise reduction software post render, to get this result....need a new laptop!

Time be-damned.. that's one insane render

Ditto! 

For Sharky, is the studio light you're talking about like an enviroment enclosure or the one that comes with Reality? Just curious, as one will render and perform quite differently from the other. Have you noticed any oomph with shadows?

I recently ditched my super render after 21 hours with and IBL+mesh as I didn't like the shadows created. I did end up using the good 'ol Sun with heavy adjustments. I'll post when it hits 3k sometime tonight. There's a 7 figures and stonemason's relatively new ruins 3 prop, but it's still zipping along at around 69-72ks/s. I wish Studio went that fast as it takes about 40 seconds to respond with the super high vertices count  I probably should have layered the characters, but I wanted the shadows to correspond to one another. Hmmm

While I'm here, does anybody know where the decimator is installed in Studio? I can't find it anywhere in the tabs department, so I was wondering if it was moonlighting under a different name.
