thanks for the kind words everyone! i will pass along the praises... some extra info for those interested...
-we used arnold 3.x to render this -because of how we partitioned the work out, and how sitoa exports ICE instances we had to come up with a way to make sure there was no redundant instance masters. we created a system to do that. we then collaborated with solid angle to make this a first party feature. "auto instancing of procedurals".. you're welcome! ;P -memory consumption would be drastically lower in arnold 4.x -this was the basis for the workflow we used on elysium, of course for more shots and a lot more detail... remember we rendered over 5 trillion triangles for elysium. -not everything was hand placed, we had some more ICE tools for automatically aligning and placing buildings. steven On Fri, Nov 22, 2013 at 9:37 AM, Juhani Karlsson <juhani.karls...@talvi.com>wrote: > Tron legacy?
