I tried to post so that you could click on the image and get a larger version and it sort of worked. Must be a user error..me. At least I got an image to post properly! One small step...

This is what I ended up with for the mad scientist. I've decided that his test tubes are warped, just like his brain. I learned alot from this exercise and am glad it was presented. I too, have the black antenna.

Brad and Medmon both your renders are very nice!
What are you all doing to get nice slender hands and fingers? I've noticed that there's a huge difference in how hands look in renders. Is it an addon?

So far it's working! All my glass and liquids, which I set to glass, are just glass, nothing checked off and it's rendering fine so far! I'm waiting for the brain bucket to clear up a little more noise and then it should be done. Thank you SO much for the help!

So. I tripled checked all my glossy settings and specular settings. Everything is nice and low. I started another render and I think the flask exploded. Every pass the scene gets worse, with more white stuff. I'm at a total loss, I have no idea what's wrong. Please help?

I've been experimenting again with the settings. Most of my noise is in the glass. The brain bucket for instance. If I set the reflection color to 25 it looks black. At 50 it looks very dark grey. It's supposed to look like glass. At Reflection 65, 65, 65 and transmission at 240 240 240, it looks like a very dark grey, not glass at all. Am I supposed to set the reflection and tranmission like this for glass? I had them both up at 230 or so and it looked like glass but there was so much reflection and noise it was just a blob. When you were explaining the settings, did that just apply to glossy items?

After reading about the specular amounts here I double checked mine. All were below 50, but I reduced them to around 25%. I'm a little confused about the color values you mentioned, Super. Why would the color need to be below 84? The three rgb values, or cmyk values are what comprise the color. So I might need a value above 100 for a particular hue. Or, am I not understanding what you're explaining? If I'm understanding what Paolo said, the specular brightness needs to be set low, as well as the glossiness amount. I have very few items that are glossy in the scene in an effort to reduce the noise. I'm rerendering again, for the umpteenth time. Hopefully lowering as was suggested will do it this time.
And thank you both for the help ;)

Yes, I lowered them slightly from the 255. I'm getting the worst noise around the glass. For instance, the test tubes. The longer it goes the more reflection/noise. I started again, this time changing some of the metal to matt. I'll let it run overnight. (sighs)

So....I redid my materials for the lab. Got rid of almost all the glossy and what was left I set very low. I changed my lighting to only 1 light, which I don't like as well but I was hoping I'd get less noise. It's a disaster. The longer it runs, the noisier it gets. I'm really confused. How can this be? It started getting worse at 500 samples, but I thoug ht I was imagining it. Now at a little over 1k samples, it's probably 4 times worse than it was. Help?

Superboom, those scenes are fantastic!
Bradhp..I had to hide my eyes but I'm pretty sure the glance I got was scary!
Thread: Reality Render thread. A new beginning. | Forum: DAZ|Studio
So, obviously I need to redo my render. Suggestions? What should I do so I don't get all those bright thingies. Fireflies? I guess I'll have to check my render more often. I check it quite a bit. I went through again and checked glossy. None of the values are at max. Most all my glass is just plain glass, no boxes checked. The IOR I used was the crown preset. Thin Film of 1.07. I've never had this happen before. But I've never used this much glass either.

I thought the 600 was the number of passes, but since it's declining, I must have misunderstood. So, here's a screen capture of it.

I'm only at 611.64kc, so I guess I'll wait til it gets to 900. It's clearing a little bit gradually.

Thank you VERY much for the candles! I rushed off to get them and already have ideas for their use.
