I would like to have a set of instructions to render ALab2 without missing materials and any additional commercial software other than Arnold

Open samhodge opened this issue 1 year ago • 17 comments

Describe the feature you'd like I would like to be able to render the asset from https://dpel.aswf.io/alab/

without issues

Describe the solution you'd like Down load the following assets

https://dpel-assets.aswf.io/usd-alab/alab-v2.0.1.zip https://dpel-assets.aswf.io/usd-alab/alab-procedurals.v2.0.1.zip

Follow additional steps given the README.md that will be created

render with usdrecord using --camera renderCam --frame 1004:1059x1 --purposes render --detail high --renderer Arnold entry.usda ALab2.####.exr or similar

Describe alternatives you've considered

I am able to render the scene with MoonRay without issues

Additional context Currently I get missing textures or materials and a lot of grain:

By comparison this post on LinkedIn

https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7045597546047553536/

seems clean and has less errors

Issue synced internally to ARNOLD-13401

Also with denoising.

Hi @samhodge , which version of arnold and usd did you use ? Thanks,

cpichard avatar Apr 03 '23 08:04 cpichard

Arnold 7.2.1.0 and USD v21.08 on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS with gcc 9.4.0

Hi @samhodge , I wasn't able to reproduce your issue with the texture with usdrecord, but I have a slightly different setup, macOS, arnold 7.2.1.0, usd 22.11 and latest arnold-usd.

usdrecord  --camera renderCam --frames 1004  --purposes render  --renderer Arnold --imageWidth 480 entry.usda ALab2.####.png

ALab2 1004

Did you use the high resolution textures ? https://aswf-dpel-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/usd-alab/alab-textures.v2.0.1.zip or just the Alab scene with the baked procedural data ? I tried without them.

For batch rendering we generally use kick as it is supposed to be more memory efficient than usdrecord/husk. The hydra delegate used by husk and usdrecord is more tailored for interactive rendering.

cpichard avatar Apr 06 '23 10:04 cpichard

@cpichard yeah I got onto the kick -i input.usda ... today and it changes everything.

I didn't use the high resolution textures

Comparing a render from the following .zip file

https://d2k39ng9pbbkxu.cloudfront.net/ALab.zip

Provided by Dreamworks

I get the following from Arnold USD

kick-compare 1007

log-kick-compare.1007.txt.zip

In a little under an hour

But from Moonray I get the following

stoatrender 1007

stoatrender.1007.exr.zip

in a little under 30 minutes

log: stoatrender_log.1007.txt.zip

Can you explain why there is a very strong light source with the Arnold render?

The issue with the green fur is less important than the number of bounces and the shadowing.
