Quote from Bogey Jammer :

There a lot of potential in this animated scene, just make them in an avi format with trees, volumetric grass and better lightning (seriously it's time to do more realistic), these animations would be kickass.

first test with new materials
i try to make grass but rendertime is to long
look at the time almost 2h 49m X 244 frames.....

Did you use Fume FX for the burnout scene

i use Super Spray

try to decrease the number of polys in the background, maybe different type of material on the buildings will be good, and maybe it doesn't need that much time, and use max 640*480 for animation, you aren't a movie maker

i know i'm not a movie maker but i want to make a good piece of work
but the 640X480 i will use i think..

You can try a few things.
1) reduce your G.I. and sampling settings, because you are going to render it to 640 x 480.
2) bake textures to scene objects. Which means the computer will render the lightings/shadows to your texture. (like many games they do it this way) Once that is done, you can disable G.I calculations of those objects which allows the render time to speed up. Do not bake texture on objects that will move in the scene though.
This method requires quite a bit of planning, and the time for render to texture could take just as long...but you only need to do it once.
I only know how to do it with default scanline render and mental ray only. I am not sure if other renderer support this at all. You may need to find tutorials for Brazil or Vray.

thanks Samy for the tip, i'm on it to try

here a test with neon light tubes





easy to make in max.
make a cylinder, with material make it high self illumination and set your colour, take a omni place it in the tube the more the better its looks, makes those omnis equal to each other (copy with instance) and give them all a low multiplier, low shadow map size and high shadow map sample range.

thanks for the little tut only it is visible, and your wheels are flying

of course it is visible. otherwise you do not have to make it
and my wheels are flying becourse it was a test

here some nice animation with the tubes

dear o dear you are FANTASTIC !

love your work

:wow:

OMG, I see some amazing talent here...
Your renders are perfect, and very cool scenes you got there.
Keep it up!

all thank for the compliments
this is a stimulant to continu

here the first screenshot with trees and shrubs for the animatie
I'm still busy with the grass.

Did you make those buildings etc? O.o that's nice.

The scenes that I make,
have been make with stuff found on the Internet

I like it nice.

Amazing very good.... had a look at the hole thread and my favs are the garages scenes keep up the good work

First: Thanks for voting

we have finally, after much arguing a skins
Some members think it's not a driftskin
majority think it does
we are proud to present our new team skin

Looks nice if you ask me Ron

I can live with it!!

Renzo

man, you should make games....

There's more to making games than assigning textures to other peope's models and clicking 'render'....

you're right,
the only thing I try is to make beautiful scenes
it,s a hobby! not more than that.

This is my modification to the VW Scirocco

chrome grill, smoky headlights with lens, green windows and rimes.
hope you like it.

Nice Im waiting for someone say me how to turn a little the tyre

Reflections are really messy (the colour of glass is never such blue). And I dont see brakes and brake calipers anywhere. Do your car uses Flinstone-like brakes ?

But nice work on car tho. And rims are nice I may sound bitchy, but I have read and see lots of renders and read about lightning.

:ashamed: hum!!! You're right, I'm ashamed but I really forgot the brakes
the light are from the original scene, 'i am on it to make a better one.
