very very good stuff iker. you didn't even get any black dot, that's amazing.

You don't know that. He might have nuked them with the clone brush in PS.

it sounds likely thomas, and it's a great idea, we should all do that from now on.

Nice!!
Is there a thread on how to use mxi for emitters?

DeadlyAppearance, you can do a surface from this line (extrude or a half revolve , it depends on your camera angle)

So is this mxi image thing just like HDR in sense. Now that we have that do we need HDR? How did you get your image mapped around a sphere in the rhino plug. I thought there were no texture controls that would allow spherical mapping in rhino at the moment. Very nice image. I would say that is photreal!!

Just convert an image to MXI (in this case I took an hdr image, convert it in tif via FCheck (Maya's image-animation viewer) and then convert the tif into MXI) , then trim a sphere (you don't need the lower part for example) , orient normals to inside and assign an emmiter material with the MXI mapped. That's it.

Thanks for your answer. I test it tomorrow.

Cool image.

Well executed simulation Iker!

[ludenhud]

awsome photorealistic look, so sweet.

jeffleeismyhero - that might have something to do with the reflections from the glass
