Kurt: That candlewax rendering of yours was a nice example what was the rendertime and hardware used for that ?

the candle scene was pretty slow. It was an overnight rendering (multilight) using an octacore system...

Thanks Juan (and the rest of the team) the updated examples look beautiful.

Talking about speed.. I rendered the benchwell scene and 1.7 was just few seconds faster than 1.6

You guys are all ticking me off! I've been reading this site for years now and I have yet to see one freaking post that talks about coffee! Sorry, but a rendering engine just cannot be "good to the last drop." Can we finally get on topic and talk about the coffee people? Sheesh!!!

J/K! 1.7 looks mucho marveloso from all these pics! Can't load it up now myself, but very soon. (I'm hoping that it'lll be easier to do swimming pool water now with the improved SSS.)

[martgreg]

so when is the next update ?

[WillMartin]

(I was going to use that one in the "1.7 update" thread in off-topic, but you beat me to it!:))

[martgreg]

Everybody is talking about sss but I have to say that I'm liking a lot too the Mxed rebump: material browser, new options in image picker, preview things, preview update on screen per sample level, material description,... oh and mxm preview in windows explorer too!

I think I will much more this things than sss (although it's very cool too).
