vray vs R16

[adamfilip 23]

I am going to do a basic comparison between Vray and R16

as I have both

 

If there is a specific test you would like to see done, let me know and I will try to accomidate if i can.

Grab a simple scene like a material lab type of scene, with all the lighting and camera settings matching and make a car paint material for us to see the differences.

Animation with GI on

Lots of rough (low gloss) materials

Caramel too!

 

 

cheers

Don't forget to set the render time & info to output "into" the render frame itself as text at bottom, to ease ID'ing the settings used, time required, etc.

 

I think a really interesting comparison would be trying for accurate tightly-woven fabric like denim (maybe also do a loosely-woven like linen as a stretch goal) in both VrayForC4D 1.9 and R16's engine.  I'm particularly interested how additional reflectance layers affect R16's performance, and how R16's Embree-enhanced performance holds up versus VrayForC4D 1.9.  Obviously, different engines aren't all that usefully comparable, but still ought to get some notion of relative layer costs, and efficiency proxies of that sort.

Adam...thanks in advance for doing these tests/comparisons. I'll be eager to see the results.

R16 is alot harder then I expected LOL.. so far a huge learning curve..

im trying to match a vray render but the current results are embarassing lol

 

I dont have my R16 vray serials yet, so im using Vray 1.9 on R15

 

attached is a work in progress.. not pretty

It looks to me like you don't have seen in reflection on in the C4D lights.  The Vray scene also looks like it has a lot of camera filters on it.  One thing that bugged me a little with vray was all the camera filters that are on by default.

[adamfilip 23]

I have setup basic area lights and camera.. what filters do you think are on..

[Fastbee 229]

I can't say what filters are on.  If you send me the file I could tell you what filters are on.

Basic area lights with Seen In Reflection on or off?
