Guides to rendering in passes and layers...

[Aegis]

A little while back, I prepared these guides for Cityscape - they've given me permission to publish them here

They're not exrTrader specific but should serve as a good introduction into working with passes in LightWave and Photoshop - I have an exrTrader tutorial coming but it's taken longer than I would have liked to get finished - watch this space!

The links at the top don't work 'cause this is only part of Cityscape's workflow docs and I don't really have time to fix it up - I hope somebody finds them of use...

Oh, and !WARNING! compositor hate ahead!!
Obviously, my opinions do not reflect those of my employer...

Wow, thanks a lot for providing these and making them available to the public.

I'm sure we'll get a lot more Tips and Tricks on the use of exrTrader in various applications in the future. Compositing is still overlooked quite often, but can add soo much to the final image.

Cheers,

I'll try to get into touch with Aegis, and maybe we can host the pages. I beliebe he also wrote a PDF that I should have on my HD somewhere.

Gern geschehen. I should actually put it somewhere a little more prominent as well.
