Hi, I was trying to create hair with motion. Rendering with antialising in a "traditional" returns a very noisy result.
So I tried disabling Antialias and use aa-blur and downscaling in posteffect. This is the result so far (divx 2.8Mb): www.xs4all.nl/~joly/temp/hairtest.avi As you can see the movie is still quite noisy. Even with maybe rediculous high settings. I used 0.1 as scaling value and aa-blur blurlevel 8, iterations 1. These were the only values that I could find that resulted in a rather smooth image without looking too blurred. I thought maybe the frameblur posteffect would give a better result but I couldn't get this effect working. In the first pass I saved the colorchannel in a raw image with a double video resolution (1440x1152). I didn't want to touch the original scene so I created a new one for the frameblur. I loaded the first pass images in the frameblur posteffect. I chose the color channel as source and destination. Created a new post image effect and added the frameblur. When I try to render the animation Realsoft immediately crashes. Am I linking the channels in the wrong way or something? The scene containing the postblur setup is here: www.xs4all.nl/~joly/temp/post.r3d Remember that the frameblur is pointing at non existent files (the r3i files are too big to send across) Arjo.
