@unknownuser said: Thea has 'Relight' you can color and change IES intensities too. That alone makes me start to think about Thea. One good step for Twilight would be to have a tool to preview the IES but to be able to adjust an IES would be great too. Especially in situations like a can light on a dimmer. An IES will give you the right spread but you may not always want that light to be on full strength all the time. Scott

Thanks mate, those light tents will come in handy for my Prodvis renders.

Thanks for the textures.

Thanks, so, then... here's one of mine for you too. [image: q4n0_MoonlightGate.jpg] Gate_Croatian.zip

i get sometimes confused, does not VUE do that for the images already ?

Chuck, I doubt very much that it's anything to worry about - I'd just leave it.

Thanks Gaeius, But it seems I wrote my post too quickly. The rendering time has just been very increased by the complexity of my handmade strokes and "sky-texture" as a background. It would render but it takes almost as much time as to retrace all the lines by hand. i guess my computer is'nt powerfull enough or I didn't create those elements in the best way. I'll try to send pictures of my question, sorry

Thanks Andrew. Scott

Actually no glass Mike. Just how it is. More of a conversation piece than true function. Looks nice none the less. Scott

Roberto, Nice models, but I only have options to download .kmz or .dae...could you make them .skp instead? It would be easier... Thanks.

Hehe, that´s pretty cool. Copy, paste and forget about it till it´s done.

There are very nice collections here as well (go through all the ("older posts" too when getting to the bottom of the page): http://grannyart.blogspot.com/search/label/tree

Thanks for help! I just hope next su releases will contain some more texturing options

Hello all, thanks for the comments. Personally I need all the help I can get to produce a decent image, I'm OK at the building side of things but when it comes to anything artistic I'm usually stumped. Scott, Holy S*** Scott, I'm episodic so only get them periodically, I don't think I could cope with chronic CH's, 14 months @ 7-8/day...boy you must be going through the pure oxygen faster than a rain forest can make it! EDIT: I wrote the stuff below before I re-read Scots post and realised that what he's suffering is measurably worse than I go through, I was going to take it out because I wrote it assuming Scott was new to the world of CH's and some of it would have been/is patronising. I've decided to leave it here in case there is anyone else out there who suffers or more importantly doesn't know that the excruciating pain they get all of a sudden at 3am every day is actually treatable. . . . . . I've suffered from cluster headaches for about 8 years, the first batch were about 6-10 events and as I didn't know they were CH's. I just used regular pain med's putting them down to stress - FAIL! When I got the 2nd batch (15-20 events) about a year later I was straight down the doctors and was very very lucky to have a doctor who had studied neurology and knew them straight away. They are often mis-diagnosed for years in some people leading a number of them to commit suicide. CH's are also known as suicide headaches by the way!! The doctor prescribed me Imigran tablets(Sumatriptan) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sumatriptan. These are MAGIC tablets, never have I taken any med's that and have an effect so quickly; about 1/2-3/4 hour from taking one to pain free. Since then I've had them about every 18 months with (worryingly) the last 2 clusters lasting about 2 months with on average 2 attacks a day. For this most recent cluster (40-50 events)I got Imigran Injections, they're like the disposable ones diabetics use that do all the nasty work for you, all you have to do is put it against your thigh and press the button....Ouch! WOW what a difference; 10 mins from pain to COMPLETELY pain free. The only problem with Sumatriptan is that any more than 2 tablets/injections in 24 hours and you run the risk of stopping your heart. I weighed this up on a couple of occasions and chose the chance of death over the CH pain and took once or twice upto 4 in 24 hours!!

Nice work, guys!!! I had a busy week last wee with a tender so didn't get back to my chair project. You guys are the best!!!

I changed the axis location after creating the component. I made 3D Text components, rotated them to vertical and changed their axes to determine the insertion point.

Thank you Jim! These are great collections!

Well done Elisei, nice work!!! And very generous to offer to do this for Ronan....

That just might do. Thanks!!
