grant_PD Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Here's a screenshot of a 300 dpi render I did a few days ago. Exported a tif instead of making the viewport and exporting the sheet layer. I got a much higher resolution shot doing it this way. I still maintain that exporting a graphic file is faster than from a sheet layer. Quote Link to comment
Mitchell Brooks Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Grant, do you mean that you think you get a graphic image faster from a design layer than from a sheet layer? Is that what you did? Quote Link to comment
grant_PD Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Yes. Actually I didn't get good results from a sheet layer at all. Perhaps I had a bad setting, but I didn't like the anti aliasing from the output of a sheet layer. So I went back to my tried and true "export graphic file." I was able to pump out two renders at 8.5x11 at 300 dpi in a fairly short time. I think each one took no more than 20 min, if that. Quote Link to comment
cad@sggsa Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 Looks Great Grant I also do not go into Sheet Layers. Maybe they will work better when doing trussing with 120 lights and Litfog. At present I use Design Layers with a camera view in a linked layer. Still get upto 2hrs of rendering time, but if I had to do someting like what grant did, maybe only 30min...and I'm on VW12.5. :shock: btw: What background did you use there. Looks realy great and simplistic. Is it HDRI? Quote Link to comment
grant_PD Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 I believe it's "mostly sunny" HDRI. Quote Link to comment
cad@sggsa Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Thanks Grant Will go look for that one as I do not have it. (Man I seriously need an upgrade... Quote Link to comment
