Quote:the Advanced settings tab (Shadow Bias and Min Ray Distance)
Hi oort, I couldn't find this "Advanced Setting" tab in YafaRay preferences, is it on the plugin window or on the light parameters window ?

Yes, I've read several theoretical books/articles on 3D modeling and rendering. I am more aware about the math models used in modeling techniques, but I am also interested in the carpentry behind rendering techniques (progressive radiosity, variance reduction for ray sampling, monte-carlo and quasi monte-carlo techniques, and others).
For the moment, in my personal PovRay/Yafaray battle, Yafaray is the clear winner. So next step will be the Kerkythea/Yafaray battle, to find the Great Champion. But using Kerkythea is less practical, because when using the rendering plugin in Wings, I always get a "Rendering Error" message. So I have to export my scene to a Kerkythea XML file and to use the standalone application to get a rendering without an error message. Have you encountered the same problem with the Kerkythea plugin ?
