Yeah! I think I have discovered my own little cheat. (decide for yourself)
It involves a non-radiosity render at full res, a single pass with MC radiosity in F-Prime at half res.
A resize and guassian blur at 4.5pixels in photoshop.
Paste the Fprime image over the original with a setting of Overlay and a fill % at about 60%.....
I should be able to script this in Pshop as an action for all rendered images and then import and overlay in DFX or Vegas
Here is a resultant frame Total time rendering about 1.30 for the non_rad at classic high AA, about 1 minute for Fprime and with scripting, about 20 seconds for post total time about 3 minutes per frame.
What do you guys think? I know its cheating but aren't all our other time saving techniques?
