hi

anybody have any good car scenes? I am using blender 2.8 and lux 2.2

i've tried a bunch of stuff myself and can't get anything that looks good, either with lux or cycles.

a good scene to learn from would be great if one exists. I see you have a bunch of downloadable examples but none with cars. It would be a great addition I think since cars are one of the most popular 3d things to create and render.

thx
b.

see my image. Not as good as in that video. Not sure what else I can do to make it better.

I am using just an HDRI for lighting like it looks like he is in the video

suggestions?

Here's a tip!

"Close to what?"
You'd be better off starting with a goal (having a reference to guide your workflow and creative process) makes path into 'virtual car photography' much easier.

Now, move your thread...

I tried downloading that and opening in 3 different versions of blender and they all say file format not supported

i tried in 2.8, 2.9, and 2.93, and the tags on that link are 2.8 - 3.1 so it should load according to that. I can't load a higher version of blender because I am using windows 7 still

also, it looks like it is for cycles? I don't see anything about lux mentioned

I made the scene to work with older blender versions and changed the materials to luxcore materials, i also put a car shape with a simple carpaint, you can play with the invert color, the metal roughness and the absorption values: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1_Z9OHc ... sp=sharing
