Quite some time ago, I did a small render, which I called "It's all in the Photons", which looked somewhat like this video, except back then I rendered to GIF, at the measly dimensions of 320x100, for use as a signature graphic for forums. Because back then I was using an old computer, it took really long, even to do just that. So now, with more power on my hands (lolz!), I just wanted to re-live that project. In widescreen, and much higher resolution. (And with camera panning). Modelled in Blender 2.45 (yes, I'm backdated), with YafRay 0.0.9 (yes, backdated again! lolz!). And the nitty-gritty details, just in case anyone wants to know: =Photon Lamp Settings= QMC Enabled Photons: 75000 Search: 500 Depth: 5 Blur: 0.175 =Material Raytracer Settings= Alpha: 0.120 RayMirror: 0.31 IOR: 1.50 Dispersion Pwr: 0.050 Samples: 3 (yes, I should have made it higher than that)
