TEST 2: Blender 3.6 vs Blender 4.0 vs Vray vs Clarisse. I matched the same values for Diffuse, spec, roughness, ior. Direct light & hdri light, intensity and angle. I feel like blenders direct light is doing some weird stuff with the direct shadows. #blender3d #b3d thoughts?

@HugoCGuerra They love to hate on CGI. Disgusting. Most people have no clue how many artists work on films. And how they work themselves to death. There is a place for both practical and CGI. We’ve all seen practical fx that have looked bad but we don’t shit on those.

@OurMovieNews I just got out of the theater. What a disappointment. The vfx were terrible! The lighting and cinematography was odd to me too. And a lot of scenes should have been cut. 5/10 for me

Did a little test between Cycles 3.6 vs 4.0 vs Vray. Vray still looks the best. BUT 4.0 has really improved energy conservation. 4.0 looks much more real! great job @Blender #b3d #cycles #blender3d thoughts?

@culturaltutor What a terrible take. There is a place for cgi and practical. And let me remind you, there has been absolutely awful practical fx in films as well. Lotr had great practical fx but they also had great cgi.
