Thanks for the info Mihai. So long as Maxwell can now take advantage of a high quality HDR, which it sounds like it will be able to, then I'm very happy about that

yes, that's great!
I got another question concerning HDRI. At the moment, if you use an HDRI as reflection channel, you can count every pixel of it in your glass, even if it is rather highres. Will the HDRI be blurred better in 2.0?

[Bubbaloo]

You can already in 1.7 use a different (blurred) hdri in the reflection slot.

...and with Dof added, you shouldn't have pixel art

That would only work if I would useat an higher resolution (6k is not enough) and HDRI's over 6k are huuuuuuuuge ...
Usually a texture with not enough resolution should be blurred, not pixeliated.

...and with Dof added, you shouldn't have pixel art

That'd really be nice, but usually I work without DOF for archviz and even if I would want to, it turns out that an f-stop of 1.0 is still too sharp (don't ask me why ...)

Usually happens when:
a) the model is out of scale (to big), and/or
b) you are using a wide angled lens

anyway, the result you are seeing is phys. correct!

Mm yep it looks like it's a once a month type of thing.. i was so used to Luxology's every Friday type of reveal, they were awesome!

Anyways, i think this thread needs more cowbell

I agree, we have a monthly alive forum, sadly said

I have a new wish for version 2.

For network rendering, more robust group prioritization per job. For example, lets say in your office you have 2 designers, each who have 5 machines exclusively for rendering. In the current render farm setup you can group each set of 5 machines and have each user only assign to their group.

What would be great is if i could assign a job with priority of 1 on group A but priority 100 on group B. Thus, if designer B's machines arent working on his projects, they would help on Designer A's projects.

But then if Designer B needs his render nodes, he would assign a job with priority 1 on Farm B but priority 100 on farm A. So then Farm B would finish the current frame (from Designer A) and then jump to Designer B's job. (and jump back to Designer A's when finished).

Do you think NL does have time for new features to v2? Is that's true we have a long waiting time yet!

I think it would be very difficult to add something now... Maybe improve something...
Well, I hope we don't have a looooong waiting (each o = 1 month) ...
