Exterior daylight rendering with Arnold
- [Instructor] In the case of an architectural visualization or a simple product shot, the Autodesk Raytracer or ART renderer may be sufficient. But if you need support for advanced shading, lighting, and compositing, then you'll want to switch to the Arnold renderer. And they are quite similar. ART and Arnold are both Monte Carlo path tracers. But Arnold is a little bit more advanced. If you want to learn more about the Arnold renderer, I have another course called 3DS Max: Rendering with Arnold. Let's take a look at rendering the physical sky in Arnold. So that we can compare it to the ART rendering, let's do an active shade now. So I'll click active shade on the main toolbar. And we'll get the ART rendering from the previous movie. Once that's finished, let's makes a duplicate by clicking the clone rendered frame window button. And we'll keep that to compare to the Arnold rendering. Close the active shade so that it's not running in the background. And then go into the render setup…
