Description
Trying to do another Carrara vs LuxusCore battle, this time with HDRI lighting.
The usual free Day at the Beach scene: http://www.daz3d.com/day-at-the-beach-bundle
Victoria 6 Carrara shaders (not free): http://www.daz3d.com/dp-victoria-6-carrara-shaders
Free HDRI Hudson River (bottom of page): http://www.hdrlabs.com/sibl/archive.html
Free LuxusCore beta: http://carraracafe.com/plugins/luxuscore-for-carrara-plugin-unofficial-manual-2015-02-15/
Deleted all the default lights and loaded the HDRI in Carrara and via the Infinite light in LuxusCore.
(But I have not learned how to position the HDRI the same way in both)
Carrara had all GI functions on an maxed out to get good lighting (without black splotches of shadows) and took 10+ minutes.
LuxusCore had the default OpenCL/Path/Unbiased and took 2 minutes for 1000 samples.
Take a guess at which is Carrara biased and LuxusCore unbiased.

Interesting comaparation !!!!

Thanks. Left one is LuxusCore using Gamma=2 and right is Carrara native using Gamma=2.1. Considering that LuxusCore is a beta with almost no GUI, it is impressive, but the render is far from being realistic in both Carrara and LuxusCore...

Cool. You may want to try to get the Carrara sky to be similar in color to the other.

I like them both. The one on the right, looks like it was a colder day. It would actually be interesting to compare them with the light in the exact same position. Other than that, I’m amazed that you haven’t had your links deleted yet. The moderators usually delete links to Daz within minutes.
