Original resolution 1920x1080, but Photobucket downsized it.

32!

Exponentially higher.

Whatever the SL was i hope it was a machine u didnt need for a week!

Haha, overnights when there wasn't any work renderings going.

higher?
hm... i see what i believe is noise on some spots...
i'd rather think about around sl18 or so... (at least i'd hope...)

Not all noise is created equally.

I would say ~34-35

Close! It's 35.47. That little rainbow in the lower right glass is most impressive to me because of the path the rays had to take to get there. They went through 3 solid glass objects, reflected off of the ground surface, then through another glass object before reaching the camera!

Wow, interesting post

What was the total render time?

Make an animation

I like this game!

Hint: Not as high as Brian's.

Nice tests.

Here's our test:

SL 26.54
on 8 mac pros for 17hrs.

render:

denoised version (well, kind of):

We've found that dispersion refines out far quicker using studio type lighting, where the strongest lights aren't too bright.

cheers,

James, nice image, can you show us a wire/ explain what it is?

Brian, those cubes have weird phong smoothing, perhaps it takes longer to render because the geo is not properly defined (also curious to see a wire).

Highly subdivided geometry.
