Re: Need more ppi in my renders please help (me too) 2004-07-11 - By bones3d_mac
Back Wow, with a mindset like that, I'm glad you're not in my staff. You should care if you are doing this stuff as a professional. Yes, it will take longer to render, but it 's much better to end up with more data than you need, than not to have enough. Sure, you can rely on programs like Photoshop to fill in the gaps and get passable results, but those programs don't know anything about the data you give it other than the color of each dot in the image. You're only going to get the results of what a photo-editing app does... modifying dots.
In Carrara, however, it may not know how to modify dots outside of rendering, but it has access to data needed to accurately fill in the gaps that a photo-editor can't use. Stuff like 3D models, lighting, shaders, distances, camera settings, etc. There is no way a photo editor could scale up an image and still have the same quality a larger rendering straight out of carrara would give you.
Shame on anyone who'd short-change a client like that just to get a few more minutes of free time. :-/
