thanks for the input... you can never be carefull enough.. everything closed solids in Rhino.. but I did find some open edges after extracting rendermeshes..(i tesselated very high to get nice edges)

.. i will fix that and rerender.
not so sure if that will solve it..I rendered this in coop mode and 3 of 4 nodes showed dots one didn't,
merging obviously adds them together
I have seen dots on a single mesh cube too..

lol at the single shit sss!..

btw can u give link to Herves shit?

... make the single shit SSS...

Single shit sss would be easy with some displacement, but never looked a shit so close to check if it needs SSS... for single sheet sss check Hervé's answer.

Sorry, although you apologized for your English I couldn't resist... aaaah somebody please delete this post

[quote="Bubbaloo"]Keeping this thread alive...

bubba.. u take it your leaves arent single shity? they have volume to em.. did u accomplish w/ displacment or box modeled shitty? and then the grass is that a 3d boxes or clipmaped grass or displaced grass.. any single shit in yur render. .
btw tanks for putting in the non shit tree. you can really tekk the dif. the leaves on the non sss tree truelly look shitty...


ahh the sss shit is too much fun!

Here is one quick test I did weighting a bsdf with two sss components. One sss was weightmapped to influence just the lips. It's too shiny and it's just a bump map used, with displacement it would look better, especially the lips.[/img]

WOW Really nice mihai for skin.. just a bit more play w roughness and nd values and its finish.. btw is there any bsdf mixed in w the sss material too?

is the face real huma scal and do u mind saharing your sss properties to give us examples.. (esp for ppllike me that never used sss)

[Bubbaloo]

The leaves were created by a tree program as flat polygons. I isolated them and added a shell modifier in Max. The grass is a few curved 4 poly blades given thickness like the leaves and instanced around a lot.

[Mihai]

There was a bit of a bsdf with a color texture mixed in there as well. I'd like to make this shader better first and use it on a better model.

Another translucent/sss/backlit leaves test. I got some bug there I guess...

[Hybaj]

Ah well the leaves don't look good in my opinion. It really needs a diffuse transmitter material. SSS just isn't built for this job. C'mon NL. It's like one evening of coding and tweaking and then a bit of a tweaking in the morning and voila it's finished.. you can release 1.71

[MS]

I created that leaf material during 30 minutes. I did not have correct translucence map to use, so I reused the bump map. If I had time to create correct translucence map the result should be good.

[Hybaj]

No don't blame yourself for this.. it would be much easier with a correct feature.

I'm sorry are those shit made out of polygon planes? or do they have a thickness?

[MS]

There is not shit at all. Sorry to disappoint you. They are cubes 0.5 mm thick with alpha channel.

[Bubbaloo]

Still needs work. The sss is too uniform.

that won't work for my already-made plants

btw I agree, they are not shit at all!... they look good

[Hervé]

does not look like a wall to me..

hehe.. nice try...
(Bubaloo, you can trust me.. Man I was the first one to test papers and thin stuff, way before the release.. it works.. somehow.. but not really practical.... but the next sss... ahhh I've said to much already.. hehe.. soon.. hehe)
