@theluthier Yeah I learned the lesson and started at 256 samples as we have been doing, but renders were coming out very very muddy and noisy, so I bumped it to 1,000 samples and it was kinda ok… but now that I think about it, that was when it had clouds with volume scatter shader, when I changed to the asteroid I didn’t change the sample numbers.
But man that volume scatter thing is very noise heavy. I had to abandon the clouds since Blender was acting out very weird, crashing and killing the render all the time.
Are the renders coming out ok at 256 samples with the asteroid? I didn’t test that.
Yes, I will submit the zip with the optimized sufix. I don’t understand what this means though…
“Note that sheepit will detect both .blend files in the .zip and you only need to submit the render-ready one.”
I’m guessing I’ll understand that better once I see how submitting to Sheepit works. I think what you mean is that Sheepit will enter the Zip and in there there are two .blends, one is the Heli model and the other is the scene ready with the linked models .blend and that is the one to submit? Lets see.
