JPGFILE: ground.jpg RENDERER USED: 3Dsmax r3 RENDER TIME: 2 minutes HARDWARE USED: PIII 800, 56mb of ram, HD 10gb, S3 savage. IMAGE DESCRIPTION: I have made this image to test the capabilities of my new computer, it took me very few time to build and render, (less than 3 hours I think), and I'm happy of the final result, thanks to the irtc for the inspiration! DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: quick and simple: - the entire scene is shaded with only 2 lights, one Omnidir and one Projector - the texture of the walls is a fade between 2 textures with an simple opacity layer - the atmospheric effect is just a 'volumetric lightening' with the default values - the spider net on the wall corner is a piece of a sphere with a wire material and some transparence that's all thanks to everybody and I hope you like my work!
