Hi all,
I’ am trying to stencil a golf course layout on a huge triangulated network and then attach materials to it.
But should I attach a facet smoothing to the triangles before stenciling the layout or is there no effect?
After stamping the golf course layout, do i still need the triangles for my rendering scene or should i set the triangles level off?
Thanks for any advice in my first steps into golf visualisation :)

Hi,
Using the facet smoothing tool will have no effect on the stencil operation. The facet smoothing will average the surface normals on your mesh/collection of shapes to make the surface look smoother.
If you dont want to see the underlying surface that you stenciled your golf course geometry on to in your final render then switch that level off. If you do keep it on.
38 mins sounds a long time for the render. What render setup, environment and lighting are you using.

Hi Paul,
I've used a custom 'Probe Park Sunny' for environment. No matter what resolution I use (X:320 or X:2000) the rendering time approches 40 minutes. I will do some testing without the materials.
Thanks for your answer.
