Noise removal is not an improvement on some specific calculations, like dielectrics. It's one new main feature of the engine.

I don't get it... what does it mean????

[tom]

We say, it's not an additional noise removal thing. It's the new way of this engine. Simply, this is how it comes naturally, not an extra algorithm specifically for removing noise.

Tom, go to bed

Would you really do so if you were me

[Leonardo]

thanks! I got it!!!

When I was reading for the first time I though it meant = There will not be improvements in some specific calculations like (for example) dielectrics.

"It's a new main feature of the engine" <- I though this part meant that Maxwell now have a built in noise removal tool like neat imagen lol!!!

My god... I'm so paranoid these days

Look at this render:


Do not you want to render it for me, Tom??

I am looking forward to final release!!!! Thanks for samples. I especially like mirrors. They are "mirroring infinite" when they are on opposite walls, like in real (hope you unerstand what I mean)

Thank you for posting the images. Noise reduction looks good and the system specs of the PC are close to my system - we don't all have duel processor machines so this was more honest on Next Limits' part.

I agree, for once renderings are done on normal computers which normal humans can afford and not some monster machine with 17 billion cpu's and 100Tb ram. As the PC used for those renderings is also close to my PC then it's better and more realistic here's my thanks aswell for doing it like that now. Btw most users are still on single cpu machines on the forum and outside the forum.

hehehe,

If you can't affor it... Let your boss know how much you need it

(Home pc= 2.8 P4 1g ram)
(Work pc= dual 64 x2 4200, 2g ram, 6800gt Nvidia)

this is..... really great news.... !!!

[NicoR44]

Yes yes!! REALLY great news

Another license holder here to express his great approval:

Also, thanks to you guys for clarifying the text of Victor's second post. I wasn't quite getting it myself either, but now it is clear.

[aitraaz]

with less noise they look kinda v-rayish, no

yikes...qmc first bounce + light cache....

[campomanes]

As i asked before,

can you please tell us the sample level of the beta and pre-release pictures?

[tom]

Well, sampling levels (SL) are not comparable due to changes in the rendering engine. I mean SL10 of beta is different than SL10 of 1.0, so it won't help anyone.

[Hervé]

ahhh Tom... NL sent you like a prophet to announce the cool news !! you're announcing to the world how we all are going to become small gods.... recreating reality with Maxwell !

( we're lucky to be in 2005.... same story in the Middle age... and all Maxwellians in jail ready to burn.... he he)

These first renders you posted are like a breeze of fresh mountain air... we can finally breathe... !!! Ahhhhhhhhhhh... fresh air...... mmmmmm do I smell Sardines on BBQ....? he wait where is my plate.....
