The shadow samples are relatively low to keep the processing time short. The white balance in the camera must be set to a slight yellow. In the Night scenes I used some additional V-Ray lights with a deep orange hue. I wanted to achieve a diffuse mood lighting to enhance the photo-realistic feel. The lighting of the day scene is exclusively a V-Ray Dome Light with an HDRI by Peter Guthrie. The boards in the interior are textured with the help of the MultiTexture plugin.Lighting But this is not noticeable because of the dune grass and thus saves some work. The dune sand is a very simple sandy texture that is not seamless. The PixPlant software helped me to create a normal map for bump mapping. I used some textures from CGTextures, which I edited a bit in Photoshop for the concrete. In the same way I distributed the stones.TexturingĪgain, nothing special. The areas that should receive no beach grass I closed out by border splines. We created V-Ray proxies and distributed them in the scene.Ī great tool for scenes with many plants is MultiScatter from iCube which I used here. Peter created various plants based on pictures with the GrowFX plugin. The vegetation required was quite manageable and I would not use any pre-made plants and so I asked Peter Oldorf from our team to create beach grass and rose hips. The next big issue was the surrounding plants… Once I was satisfied I collapsed the whole thing to a mesh. This gave me good control over the hills. It seemed to me to be the best way to use the displacement of 3ds max with a noise map.
I used a few reference photos from my vacation for the modeling of the dunes. I removed the sky from the panorama so I could use an HDRI in a Dome Light for the sky later.

In this how-to article Bertrand describes in detail the way he uses the Floor Generator Script using the GH House model as an example.
