Decorated Latticework by ahimsa

Hey nice one ahimsa

Vine filter? Is it that one that someone made for a game? That one is way too slow to render to add to this one which is also a slow one.

Thanks you two.

Thanks Persidio!

Hi jffe~

I gave her some tips and hints too, but in email. Let's just say it's one amazing filter.

Hi Ahimsa~

Was my pleasure. I luvs this filter. This filter is fun to use~

Removing the top stone pattern takes away more than half the design...all the fine details.

I did the perlin noise thing and will see if there is some other way to get that top stone effect with perlin noise instead.

Not yet on the lighting, but I will.

I have one filter, the corroded one, that is very slow to render, but unfortunately it's the only way to get the efects I am wanting.

Sorry, I was meaning Corrosion 2. It is a very slow rendering one, but if I change things on it then the details I was wanting are lost.

I'll take a look at that other filter.

http://www.filterforge.com/filters/3268.html <----That one ? It doesn't appear in my list of filters (I cannot get them by clicking on the page, I have to download them from within FF, and it does not exist in that category on my list).

This one http://www.filterforge.com/filters/3291.html

Ok on the hints.


Sorry for the short answers, I need to lay down, all trips out of the house do a real number on my body and it takes days to recover.

----Not too much to be done in this one, there were a couple of blends and a light/dark module or something that went nowhere (they were up in the top right hand side un my editor window here), but erasing those 3 or 4 components didn't change the render time as they did nothing to begin with. I turned down a couple of the Perlin Noise details settings to match the roughness settings, and did the same for the one (setting of 58) Stones module, and that was about all I could do to speed it up without changing the look of it at all. If you make those adjustments, you'll only get about a 10%-15% speed increase really, but it might be worth it since this filter does take a while to render. I'll leave it up to you, and hope yer feeling better later eh.

jffe

Thanks

jffe, I will give it a try along with Presidio's suggestion.

No, I wasn't taking it as an insult, just depressed that it didn't work the way that I had hoped it would. I know this one is slow and have tried to fix that. I have several filters that I have tried to fix with no luck. Maybe when FF is upgraded

----The tips about lowering the details on noise components (in direct relation to the roughness setting) is something I read on the forums here, and for Perlin Noise it seems to always work without changing the look of a filter even 1%, for some other shapes, it varies. As for the HDRI lighting suggestions, that was just trial and error, something everyone will get to sooner if not later, and if anything, it took me way too long to figure it out, so I maybe emphasize it when making suggestions to people ha-ha.

Well, Carl could probably use some tough and rugged, floral metalwork lattice.

I think he's out having a forgery made of that blue string. He wasn't really wanting to part with it.

Just finishing up the pic for jffe and then I will work on this. Having some lighting and memory problems on his pic. I really need to send this to the shop to get the extra RAM installed. Poser is a real memory hog.

Ok! I will do it today. jffe will have to wait. He doesn't talk to me outside his threads anyway.

Ok, I won't do it.

ok, I won't.

jffe's pic is almost done. Maybe two more days for the postwork. Had a lot of problems by not having all my RAM installed.

What exactly would you like in the way of the lattice?

Ok, I will do what I can and you are welcome to do whatever else you need to on it.
