      I'v got one simple qst)

      What should I do, to get sky on the background of my model?

      Now I'v put sky texture rectangle behind the model
      Are there any other ways to get background?

          So, your answer partially solved the question...

          Another one appears after I rendered model in Podium 1.6

          Why I don't see the background picture after rendering?

              Podium doesnt render watermarks or backgrounds. In order to do a sky you need to do a skybox, skydome or a sky billboard that and apply a sky image as a material.

              If I make it look easy...It is probably easy

                If you drag and drop an image into SU, you need to first explode the image before it will render in Podium. You could also import the image as a texture and scale it onto a face.

                  And another one qst: (I noticed, they all are about podium...)

                  In attach there is rendеred image:
                  Please, look at some strange details:

                  1. Strange lights under several surfaces - what is it? I'v got them whith some light/dark combinations
                  2. Take a look on rails - they are dotted at some places - how can I clean lines?

                    Here is a sample (although needs better foreground) with IDX. Did anyone mention SU's watermark, or photo match (sort of).


                    IDX


                    Watermark
