Amazing images.

Well as long as it works... Thanks a lot for your help.

Is there any difference between using EIAS on a Mac and a PC? Do cameras and renderama work the same? I am feeling inclined to switching to PCs for the price. Thanks. Vic.

Well I tried setting the Output gamma to 2.2 and darkening some textures to .455 in the diffuse tab, but that didn't work. I don't have V9 yet by the way. Should I forget about linear WF if I don't have 9?

Thomo, would you recommend taking the gamma correction out of my texture files in photoshop before rendering? Is there a way of doing that in EIAS? like making it darker in the shader tab maybe.

I am still not using 9. But I am thinking of buying a new computer. Do I have to worry about having 2Gb of Ram for each Core the computer has with the new camera? Vic.

Thanks for all the tips Thomo, great links too. I have lot of homework now to do over the holidays. :)

http://www.flickr.com/photos/aguilarpierri/8294953276/in/photostream Here is an update for the lobby. I tried to make all the improvements you all suggested I gave the ceiling a texture but it is barely visible at this resolution, I promise its there, haha. I have just noticed I forgot the receptionist again, sorry. But go ahead and tear this image to pieces please, all I learn here I will use for all the other renders of the project. Thanks.

Thanks Mark

Does anyone here use a Hackingtosh? Does EIAS work with hackingtoshes?

Thanks Tom, I'll give it a try. Here is another angle from the same project.

WOW THEY LOOK AMAZING. I am looking forward to using 9 soon, maybe next week. If I start using the demo version, is it a full functioning version?

Truly I do have fun working with EIAS, I don't have a supercomputer and the speed is still amazing.

The process up to this point. I'll start making the improvements tonight, will post again soon. I am having trouble getting a realistic blurred reflection for the floor. Any tips? The project is a hotel, with retail and some office space. This is the lobby to go up to the office tower. Thank you all for the help, it is priceless. Vic.

Thanks Michael, I'll post again with the changes.

I want to make this my best render ever. Here is what I have, please send any suggestions you can think of to make this image look like a photograph. Thanks. Oops it didn't upload, but here is a link then. Sorry about that, don't know what happened.

Hi, quick question, my friend still uses v.7 and I helped hims with his project using v.8. He can't open the project file now. Is there a way to convert a file back to v.7? Thanks.

Wow thank you all for the comments. I'll work on the water and palm trees. Any ideas where I can get nicer looking palm trees? FormZ is great but i don't think I can model a good tree on it. Thanks again. Vic

This is almost finished. They will pay me to do some changes so I have a chance to re render all of the clips. So let me know what I can do to get this to go on the EIAS3D gallery. Vic.

Thanks Tom I think I had left some of the trees and shrubs ouside the no GI group so I fixed that and it came out OK. Thanks.
