[SOFTWARE]: Hypershot: (almost) real time rendering
-
Hi people,
I stumbled upon this real time render software, downloaded the demo and was positively surprised.
Check it out, it works natively with SU files.
Here's the link:
http://www.bunkspeed.com/hypershot/index.htmlI tried importing a 3D horse model from 3D warehouse.
This came out after playing for just 1 minute : -
When quickly changing the background:
-
I have seen this before Down loaded trial back then, pretty impressive hdr rendering. Have you priced it yet?
-
Looks impressive and I see it has Mac versions! Pete here is a link
to the pricing, http://www.bunkspeed.com/hypershot/store.htmlMike
PS: Had a little difficulty locating the Demo. It can be found
here, http://bunkspeed.com/hypershot/demo.html -
I think Pete meant if I called them to ask for the PRO price, since that price isn't advertised.
Probably expensive. -
Some more images, the rendering engine isn't too bad.
The 'noisy' ones are the 'real time' renders, while there is also an option to render one out clean. The engine itself is in a way a bit similar to Podium 1.x imo, but working only with HDRI environment light.
There is no option to make light emitting materials or to set up lights though, which is really a shame.The price strategy is kind of odd : 195 dollar for a low res version which is acceptable, but 990 dollars just to be able to render (slightly) bigger? (1990X...res).That's strange. And I am not even talking about the 'PRO' version for which you have to call in to get a price.
These were quick tests on different old scenes:
-
This thing works pretty well...
Material assignment is easy: double click the object in the viewport, set some sliders. Done. The screen updates automatically.

The Pro version apparantely costs ... $12,995. http://www.deskeng.com/articles/aaafha.htm
Just a tiny bit out of yours truly's league.

Hurry and get it while the special offer stands. Maybe I should get two just in case.
-
That's silly.
It's ok software but definitely not thát good.
With such a price? (12.995 $). Abandonware! -
You could sell your BMW, no?
-
My super cool 'not so shiny' BMW probably is worth 1000 dollar
So I would have to sell 13 of those to buy Hypershot.Nooooooooooooo way.
-
lol. By the way, how long did that "old" living room take?
-
About an hour.
-
Excuse me? I think I'll stick to Podium for quick visualizations!
-
That was exactly my thought as well.
-
-
Cool shot Stinkie!
Indeed, Podium still is a great thing to use. Imagine what v2.0 will bring... -
.... AND Podium works IN SketchUp. This is such an advantage
for Newbies to renderingMike
-
Aye, if an idiot like me can use it, anyone can.
I'm very much looking forward to 2.0.
