Render

Info

Parameters marked with a * will change in future versions.

Output

output_path: Path for the final image to be written to. Use $F4 for padding

colorspace: ACES based colorspace name

Quality

resolution: Resolution of the final image

bin_size *: Size of the tiles used in the rasterizer

subdivisions *: The amount of anti aliasing subdivisions. Only supported options are 1, 2, 4, 8

Important: During Pre-Release don't change the bin_size and keep the resolution a multiple of bin_size. These parameters will be simplified and changed in the future.

Rays

wavelength_count: Amount of wavelengths used to trace through the lens system. Wavelengths are automatically chosen to cover the visible spectrum. Usually only 4 or 5 wavelengths need to be traced to give good results.

wavelength_sub_count: Amount of wavelengths that are interpolated during rasterization. Usually 8 give good results.

grid_count: Amount of points on the grid of rays that is traced through the lens system. Previews can look okay with 32 while final renders might need 64-128.

grid_length: Length of the grid of rays that is traced through the lens system. The grid is ideally as small as possible. Start with a value that is larger than the height of the lens (for example 50mm, that's the height not length of the lens) and go smaller until ghosts are not cut off anymore.

Starburst

resolution: Resolution of the Starburst aperture and pattern

samples *: Amount of samples for the pattern renderer

Ghost

resolution: Resolution of the Ghost aperture and pattern

Debug

disable_starburst: Disable the Starburst pattern in the final image

disable_ghosts: Disable the Ghosts in the final image

debug_ghosts: Only render one Ghost in the final image

debug_ghost: Index of the Ghost that should be rendered

Diagram

Renderer

resolution: Resolution of the diagram

Rays

debug_ghost: Index of the Ghost that should be rendered

light_position: Relative vertical position of the light source

grid_count: Amount of points on the grid of rays that is traced through the lens system

grid_length:Length of the grid of rays that is traced through the lens system

column_offset: Index offset of the column of rays in the grid to visualize
