Render #22 (animation test bottom page 8)
-
Yes, but BbB's interior renderings are awesome. well worth the wait, even the 30 hours if you ask me.
As he is very talented so when he pushes the button, he knows the 30 hours are going to give him excellent results.The average user perhaps becomes frustrated as he would only find out after e.g 10 hours, that his material setup sucks and he needs restart. 10 hours time lost
In the end (always the same conclusion after debates like this) the conclusion is: Wear what suits you best.

Wait for Podium V2, mate! I cannot go into details, as Tavi would surely have me shot, but V2 has got a great (biased) engine.
Are you part of the podium development team
?No, of course not. I'm way too dumb to develop any app! But some clever Googling did tell me what engine Tavi and his little elves are using. Good stuff, trust me.

Listen to The Kwist, Prince! Seriously, this makes sense. Try a couple of apps, and keep what you like/find useful.
@unknownuser said:
I still believe that for large scale/high quality rendering, non-bias produces best results.
As do I. Which is why I use Maxwell and Indigo. Then again, you don't need 9000 x 6000 renders every day. Keeping a biased renderer on your hd for simpler tasks, is not the worst of ideas.

I just wish someone would tell me what suit to wear
You can literally count on your finger the guys who use each render engine well. For 90% of users those 10 hrs will be down the drain - congratulations on wasting your life. I'm not one to argue with the biebel but a well coded biased engine is surely the future of rendering,.. lets hope v2 lives up to the hype -

May I ask what you wear?

Frustrating, innit?
The only way to find out what suits you, is trial and error. I know this is not what you want to hear.@princedragoncok said:

I beg to differ. Take Indigo for a spin. It's SU plugin's a gem of user friendliness. Anyone can learn how to use it. The proof? I did.

I suspect Podium V2.0 will be pretty sweet. Might be all you need for your arch viz needs.
Do consider KT too. I don't use it myself, but it's a potent, versatile and free app. Kim Frederik wrote a nice introductory tutorial, which you can find over at Kerky HQ.
Me, as far as biased rendering goes, I'm gonna wait for Tavi to wake up from his winter sleep.
I like it simple, and I'm a loyal - though whiny 
- costumer. -

I like it simple, and I'm a loyal - though whiny - costumer.I don't understand why the podium team is being so secretive. I'm not seeing how it's doing them any favours. Indigo is all the talk at the moment as a result of Whaat's endless improvements and feedback with the users. Anything you see on the podium wishlist forum is usually vetoed with little discussion. I do completely agree with their philosophy of keeping the interface simple and sketchup-like however..

The difference is that Podium is a commercial app and Indigo isn't. Think about it. From a user's point of view, I agree with you, but if I were them, I'd keep my mouth shut too.
And as for wishes being vetoed without discussion, I'm not sure I follow. Got an example?

I do enjoy podium although I lost my reg info a while ago and gave up trying to retrieve it.
What exactly do you mean by "reg info"? My Canadian's not that good.
-
Have you tried contacting TBD, Sepo or Bigstick? I'm sure they'll be glad to help you out.
Hey, you spelled my name right!
-
Why nobody talk about Kerkythea? it's good, it's free, what do u think about it?
-
KT was mentioned.

Just to pick up on the 'unbiased render engines taking forever' thing, its very easy to do small renders quickly, and these are almost always adequate to highlight anythingthat needs changing. Once youve got your scene set up its onyl really a matter of leaving the render going for a few days/how ever long you want. This is pretty easy if youve got a seperate rendering machine, although pretty tedious if your doing it on your primary machine.

Yes, now it is starting to look that way.
(the discussion was interesting though) -
Yes, it got out of hand.
-
Wow!
That's it! I quit!
Kwistenbiebel should be taken out of competition......Great, nice design, makes one hungry for more, and makes me more frustrated, boehoe..
Thumbs up!

modelhead: you need to send the email from the same email address when you license it (otherwise someone can impersonate you). for more Podium related questions, please come on the Podium forum. thanks

That was quick.

I used the Madosettings which a lot of people use (download section of Asgvis)

Some silly camera movement test using one of the scenes in this thread.
