Does this means that you are going to make a video tutorial to explain about this important and interesting topic?
|
So I tried today about making a video tut on it and it turns out my surroundings are too loud for some reason and everything around me just attempts to fail me making this video.
I'll do a write up instead and then make a video tutorial since this is a big big big topic and I think it can use some help. There are some bits and pieces being discussed here that I'll include in the write up. I'll introduce some techniques I use to fake some of the looks and feels and also give some useful tricks on what makes for "optimal renders."
Actually part of the issue is caused by ourselves, and I'll highlight all that stuff too!
I basically want this to be useful for everybody else so not only FilterForge users, so I'll write it in a general way, but I'll touch on FilterForge largely as we discuss it. |

Sounds cool!
Oh, and I know how it is to have a loud surrounding when you try recording a video... Most detering aspect of tut making for me! |

Thanks really very much Skybase for your help, work and time to make this surely very helpful and interesting tutorial (or whatever you call it) for optimizing the configuration of the filter and options to get the optimal render speed

I think that for this topic is better perhaps a written tutorial instead of a video tutorial, so I think that your idea of making it this way I like it and is better AND also you can print it and have it outside.

Yes, I agree totally with this as I have seen the results that appear in this thread and HOW MUCH different the speed can be reduced or increased by just changing the AA and AO settings and that the speed gain is really VERY MUCH.
AA = Antialias
AO = Ambient Oclusion |

I can take a screenshot SpaceRay, but i use the Command line batch with a default xml for rendering. |
I wonder if the speed of the FF command line rendered is the same than the one using the full version of filter forge (I mean the software open)

| By the way the Mystery of why Vincs got this very slow render times is STILL unsolved so please GMM or any other, help him be able to solve this problem, thanks |
As there has not been any further answer I do not know if this has been solved perhaps with FF customer support or Vincs has been able to solve it by himself. |

It would be very useful and interesting to know how to optimize the quality of the result and balance it with the render time.
Also would be good to make a draft and low quality test render to see if this is really what we want to make and then put the final best settings for the final result

Thanks for helping, but I know that you may be busy, and do not want to bother you, so do it when you want and can make it and feel right to do it. |

Speed seems pretty relative of a subject really. Some people have awfully slow computers and given a combination of awfully bad filter construction it does become "slow filters" |
