True. Following since 2017
My path with tracing started in 2005 with Maxwell, Fry, Indigo and Lux (in constant flux).
Which all took an awful lot of time to render clean VS Vray. But then with multi-core CPUs, GPUs & finally Corona, things just got quick and simple to handle. Reading about how and what each one does feels like watching sports. I'm simply fascinated by these
'intellectual gymnastics'.

But i just always wonder why people give all that super complexe detailed paper for free. Considering they will be at the disposal of the competition.
I believe, it's in the human spirit of reaching the higher ground (officially, the academics).
With open competition we all grow, evolve and finally everyone wins
fair & square
When you go into details you soon realize it ain't as easy as it looks. It's huge intellectual endeavor, takes a lot of time, patience, discipline, mental strength to comprehend, envision, to first construct, "project" idea in mind, do the prognosis and then stay focused, concentrated on work to achieve the final goal -- Get constantly stable & efficient results simply by touching and swiping on screen of a "tablet". Magic!
From my experience it's whole lot easier to prepare for and run the marathon.
