My first Supersize-Image

Here is a picture from my little hobby-raytracer.

Flat-Version


The other version


I used Bidirectional Pathtracing with MIS and LightTracing.

Very nice.

Oh yeah! I envy the amount of cool rendering fu you implemented!

[XMAMan]

Here is my newest implementation: A lightsource with motionblure-effekt.

[dawelter]

No offense, but how is it different from regular area lights?
Anyway, I really like the renderings in your first post. They look good and they are so clean. Good job. Oh and the scene with the crystal man is very cute

The difference between a Motionlight and a Arealight is, that if you want create a LightSub-Path, starting from this lightsource, than you have to create first the point on the lightsource and than you must move that created point randomly on a given Line (the motionline from the lightsource).

Or if there is a EyePoint, from a Eyesubpath, is given, and you want connect that eyepoint with a random point on that lightsource, than you create first with lightsource-sampling a point on the lightsource and move it randomly to get to motioneffect. Its not as diffifucult but have to be done for a nice looking fireball

PS: If you look on the last image, there are other details: Microfacet Glas on the brown mushroom and Microfacet Metal on the turtle. Bummap-effect on the tetris-stones. This effects are so small, no one can see that

I will post in some days a better image from my microfacet-testimageszene.

[dawelter]

Oh, forgive me, I missed the motion blur on the fireball even! Now I understand. Nice!

Here is my microfacet-Test-Image.

This is the isotrophic-ggx-normaldistirbution from walter

and this is the anisotrophic-ggx-noormaldistribution from eric heitz, where I have sampled the visible normals

I have used a sphere-light far away from the window instead a plain surface-light nearby the window. This leads to better shadows on the ground now.
