This is so awesome that it makes me sad that I know none of my pictures will be this good.

Looks nice.
You should try making Project Zomboid like this.

looks very nice but i'm curious about the render time.
17+ hours? With only a handful of point lights and a relatively simple mesh? why so long?

Unbiased render: long render time.
If I was to let it render for only an hour, there would be too much noise in the picture.

because quality, textures, and Resolution of course. 3D Minecraft renders take very long (I have no idea why) it happens to me too..

Not really. It's just that I use a render method that basically calculates random light paths for every pixel, so that after enough passes, the image will have 100% accurate lighting. You can see I let it go 256 passes before stopping the render, if I was to stop the render after only 10 passes, it would be far too noisy.

Yeah I know how metropolis light transport works, but I've been following rendering advances for years now and even written my own realtime raytracer for minecraft scenes and I just thought it'd render faster. I'm guessing kerkythea is a CPU renderer. I wonder how something like Octane would handle it.
EDIT: I see it's only using 4 threads so sounds like CPU for sure.

Kerkythea hasn't seen any improvements since 2008, and only has CPU render now

same here. that's what I'm talking about too.. For REALISTIC renders. I'm kinda confused right now, but I understand you.
