The
key to this tutorial is to
help you improve your scenes
and how you render in general.
It is a fairly simple concept
that once you learn you will
always use.
Ok
for today's tutorial I will
be showing you how to setup
your scene for rendering…
The first thing you should
do is make sure you have everything
you want in the scene, obviously,
next we will want to open
up the Rendering Menu and
select Render. Now when the
render popup comes up, scroll
down to the rollout called
Current Renderers. As in figure
1.
Choose
the assign button to the right
of Production Render, when
you click this a menu comes
up and asks you what rendering
system you would like to use,
some people's may be different
depending on if they have
other rendering systems installed.
Choose Brazil r/s from the
list. Now the fun part…
Under
the Brazil: General Options
rollout, change the Bucketing
Options from the size of 64
to 16. Next we come to the
Brazil: Image Sampling rollout,
this is where you are going
to set your AA settings. The
best results can be achieved
by using the same settings
as Figure 2.
Now
that we've setup our basic
rendering settings, lets just
go back to our model and make
sure the bottom of it is set
just a little bit above the
0 line on the grid so when
we make our plane it will
not cut right through it as
in figure 3.
Now
to actually put the plane
in, we will go back to the
rendering rollout and scroll
down to the Brazil: CSG Server
rollout, and check the box
that says enable, now don't
change anything in this rollout.
Next
we will set up the final settings
go back up to the Brazil:
Luma Server rollout, this
is going to provide the GI
or Global Illumination for
your scene. As you may see
the Direct Illumination is
already enabled and all the
boxes are checked except for
the one that says Skylight,
check that one right now and
then scroll down a bit until
you see the same options as
in Figure 4. Put your settings
the same as I have them, and
now you are all ready to render
your scene.
