LuxCoreRender Forums

Hey,
i wanted to know why there is no IOR setting for the Metal Material.
I mean Chromium is about 2.97 and Aluminum 1.44.

As i said it is rlly dirty and cheap. Just render with the "Light-HDRI" and transparent Film. And then change to the "View-HDRI" and render without any objects. Combine both in post. Ofc in some cases in can cause problem with reflections but im fine with that, better than nothin...

Beautiful images! Congrats!

Thank you.
I use Luxcore for 7 days, so there is much to learn for me.

I found a workaround not the best or efficient but it gets the job done.

Hmm, that doesent rlly work like i want.
But thx for the help.

Hey,
Is it possible in LuxCore to use 1 HDRI for rhe lightning and annother one for the viewport/camera?
In Cycles i can use the Lightpath-Node for that, but i read that this node will not come for LuxCore.

Thx for the shader. the principle is that your diffuse color must be dark to let pass light I rlly dont understand that concept. :D Can i see your cache settings ? I used the default Cache Settings. https://abload.de/img/luxcore6ek12.png Yes it is a pretty old one Yeah, since i only render with GPU ...

Even if light cache building time is related to CPU performance i never exceed 3mn in my production scene with I7 8700k (mostly arround 60 to 90sc). Maybe because my CPU is a bit older E3-1230 v3? I dont know why it takes so long. look here : viewtopic.php?f=4&p=24993#p24993 I used tha option b...
