Re: Photo-video rendering plug-in Hi Cecilia, I wonder if you could give us a short explanation about how the different settings behave: Direct lighting Ambient occlusion Path tracing Photon mapping SPPM As the YafaRay web site is inaccessible, their team have made their docs available here. What I can say about the settings I've implemented: Direct lighting (direct light, hard shadow, equivalent to SunFlow diffusedBounces=0) Ambient occlusion (direct light, less dark shadow with brightness dependent on time of day) Path tracing (indirect light, editable number of bounces, caustics visible from 3 bounces) Photon mapping (indirect light, predefined number of bounces, predefined number of photons) SPPM (indirect light, predefined number of bounces, predefined number of photons, editable number of passes) I like that you have now increased the sample setting from max 16 to max 100. The number of samples per pixel for YafaRay ranges from 1 (min) to 1024 (max). Correspondence with SunFlow: antiAliasing 0 = 1 sample per pixel antiAliasing 1 = 4 samples per pixel antiAliasing 2 = 16 samples per pixel antiAliasing 3 = 64 samples per pixel antiAliasing 4 = 256 samples per pixel antiAliasing 5 = 1024 samples per pixel When the YafaRay documentation will be updated on their new web site, it may be possible to properly implement caustic photons.
