    I'm really interested in the First Light product, but am wondering how the Iray version works does it include an HDRI for lighting. I can't seem to see any indiction on the promo pages which renderer they use, it would have been really useful to know which image used which version.

    Hi scorpio
    Yes of course the Iray version includes a HDRI, basicly that IS the Iray version ;)
    I didn`t tag the promos because the sky itself looks pretty much identical on each version.
    Anyway, I quickly threw together two Iray renders before F1 starts here. It`s the Tree of Life set with the First Light sky/environment, no extra lights, no postwork, just a direct render.

    And what about the waterfalls? Could you please post some closeup from the side of it, please.

    Do they have some volume, or they just flat?

    Thanks guys!
    Lovely quote maxamillion, although I`ll add I particularly like the Tree of Life theme because it`s spread through many different cultures and religions, it seems to be a globally relateable symbolism
     

    Flipmode Perhaps it is global because its hidden meaning is the double helix within a gene. Great set; I'll be getting this next week. Thanks for making it.

    Thanks nDelphi, looks great, lovely coloring. And the armour the guy is wearing looks really good.
    Just have to ask, in the top/left corner there are some bright dots ... did my birds somehow turn white, or is that something entirely different?

    Maxamillion ... must be something like that, hardcoded symbolism ;) Hope you will enjoy the set.

    -
    Just thought to add a quick note, because I doubt everyone reads the infopages ...
    Unlike previous sets the lights for 3Delight are now parented to the skysphere (both on the scene and the sky preload).
    This makes it more easy to rotate the sky or lighting, without having to worry about them not fitting together after rotating.
    Also makes it more easy to forget there is already lighting in the scene and loading it twice. ;)

    Yes, the background blends into that color, birds includded.

    Ah thx, crazy effect, but works very well there.

  • hacsarthacsart Posts: 2,025

    Well.. I have to say, that even though I have a very restricted DAZ budget, I picked this up. Price was right, and it looked really good in the sample rendersthis thread. What I like about it, is that tere are a ton of useful bits and bobs that can be used outside of the set, and it includes a very nice path up to the top of the land prop...Best of all, its NOT an iray only set, a big thanks for continuing to support those of us who cannot easily use iray (or prefer not to...ahem)

    Thanks for this one! its a keeper!

    ...

    Thanks for that. Probably will buy it later on.

    Thanks hacsart ... I know it isn`t easy to decide what to buy with so many good sets on the store.
    I am glad you feel you got your money`s worth here. :)
    Iray ... I grew to like it, but imo it really needs 3Delight at it`s side.

    Excellent — just bought it, and the light set. Evenmoredramatic scenes, coming right up...

  • MelanieLMelanieL Posts: 7,386

    Well, I was trying to talk myself out of this yesterday (I've spent far too much recently!) but the extra renders here have tipped the balance - I have almost all your other Easy Environments (only Hell has eluded me so far) so had to get this one too. It looks great. (If the sale is still on tomorrow I may cave and buy the add-on sky and Hell too!)

  • FlipmodeFlipmode Posts: 908

    Glad to hear it, I hope the set serves you well :)

    Always up for evenmoredramatic scenes Kitty, if you got something nice just shoot ;)

    Here's one I did last evening - the setting calls for some nice mythic renders smiley

    Godrays done using a scattering medium in a block between the far side of the tree and the camera. Post processed to give a less rendered look.

    Czexana, this is beautiful!

    Thank you, Flipmode, for this absolutely adorable set!

  • FlipmodeFlipmode Posts: 908

    Great atmo Czexana ... the against-the-sun-silhouette thing is a good fit, I kinda wanted to do that myself, but as vendor I have to keep stuff more visible for promos. And yes, I googled silhouette for spelling. ;)
     

    Thanks for the kind comment caravelle, glad you like it!

  • hacsarthacsart Posts: 2,025

    Latest using the light/skybox...Thanks again for this environment!

    Looks great, plus I like how the sky image, well, fulfills it`s purpose ;)

    Hi guys ... just to quickly drop some previews for upcoming sets.

    It`s three seperate products, environment-sphere / HDRI only (no terrain geometry like on most Easy Environments) ... pretty much the same format like the "First Light" set.
    I`ve made them with EE Greenlands, EE Top of the World and EE Winter in mind, but of course they can be combined with anything.
    Hope you`ll like them!

    High Peaks:

    Green Hills (creative naming, right?): ;)

    Ooo, I like! Suitable for use in Iray?

  • FlipmodeFlipmode Posts: 908

    Glad you like them Kitty :)
    Yes, of course. It`s skyspheres & lighting for 3DL and Poser, and HDR Images (render settings) for Iray.

  • FlipmodeFlipmode Posts: 908

    Just to update ... at least two of the sets (Eternal White & Green Hills) should release this weekend. I don`t know about High Peaks yet, but I think it will be close to that.

    Release info ... Eternal White released earlier today :)  Link: Eternal White Daz Store

    Green Hills is to follow shortly, High Peaks mid next week.

    Somehow the link to the Easy Environments tips&info page didn`t make it to the product description, so if you want some additional info you`ll probably find it here:
    Link: Easy Environments Info page

    I hope you enjoy the products!

    Thanks Dragon! Glad to hear it, I hope they`ll serve you well.

    Hey Flipmode, these look awesome! I especially like the High Peaks product. Does that include it's own skydome/HDRI? Of the three sets, it is the one that would fit best with the scenes I am interested in creating.
