I rendered a series of images with -ad 2048 -as 1024 -ar 52 -af file.amb
(taking many hours to render)
They came out splotchy, so I increased -ad 4096 -as 2048 -ar 200 -af
file.amb (building upon the same data)
I expected it to take quite a while to render, but they took ~ 5 to 10
minutes and I saw no real improvement
my question is the nature of the ambient file..
If I start it with a lower quality, can I improve it? Or is it similar to
trying to "upres" a Photoshop from 300 dpi to 600dpi
judging by my results, this seems to be the case
Thanks
Rob F
