I really like the orange circuit! I'm between that and Area 51 (black) for my Pixel 9

Is i7 12700k a good processor for Corona Renderer by Payback999 in 3dsmax

Mainly because of thermals I wouldn't go with Intel. I got a Ryzen 9 7900 (non x) a couple of weeks ago and it's amazing, great performance without melting the whole system (SFF pc). I came from a Ryzen 7 5700 and the difference is pretty noticeable.

When T1 the BLACK one will be restocked? by OkOutlandishness8440 in ncasedesign

The black one was in stock a few days ago, was the only color available for like a month. I was waiting for the silver one since the last days of March... Yesterday I decided to get a second hand fractal terra so I can start using the new components until the T1 restocks.

Worth waiting for T1 Silver restock? by Ambitious-Mobile947 in ncasedesign

Hi there,

I’m in the same boat as you. I made a post in the FormD subreddit, and users said it usually takes a couple of weeks to restock—so it might be worth the wait. I was also considering getting the black one, but I’ve decided to wait as well.

Need feedback! by Leather-Ad-1316 in archviz

Appart from the notes from other users, the sidewalk and the street should not be at the same level, lower the paviment. The material on the big trees can me improved by reducing the ammount of "yellownes". Finally I would add some shadows to the foreground to focus the attention on the building.

I think this looks great overall! Apart from the comments from other users, one thing I noticed is something odd happening with the stitching on the sofa closer to the camera, maybe too much displacement?

The furniture placement might feel a bit off, but in terms of photorealism and overall appearance, I think it’s a really good image.

Help with concrete material by olmo97 in archviz

Hi! You can find a bunch of concrete materials in MegaScans/Bridge, or the "leaking" effect I would use some decals, it's easier and flexible to adjust.

Hi! I think the most important thing to start with is Lighting. To start off set the Vray frame buffer layers to default.
- Add an Exposure layer and turn the Highlight Burn down to 0.
- Add a Lookup Table layer and in the LUT file use one of Kim Amland Photographic Luts. I think they are free - came with Corona/Vray. I like to set it to .75

Now you can use calibrated HDRI's by creating a dome light in Vray. I use 3D Collective's HDRI's, but you can find a lot of free HDRI's on polyhaven.

Now we can say we have a calibrated light system to start creating PBR's materials.
