I liked the idea of this being locked w/o all the zillions of posts and notices of updates below. If we do lock it again, feel free to delete this post.

Okay, I added trueSpace. IDX Renditioner was already there.

Chis - do you thing this thread should be locked?

I though the idea was to have a single post at the top with all renderers. As someone wants to add a new one, it gets PM'ed to a Admin who then adds it to the list. Then there would not be a zillion posts like this underneath. Just a nice clean list. It doesn't have to be that way, its just what I was envisioning based on Coen's original post.

Ah, I see. Well, in any case, the first post is constantly updated (like now I did).

What is the best render to use in OS X?
Just recently convertet to OS X and don't want to switch over to XP to use V-Ray all the time I want to render something...
So what render is best for me? I am looking for something as good as V-Ray and not to difficult to use.

Thanks in advance for the replies...

Hei Henrik,

Unfortunately there isn't many render applications available for Mac...
But from the list available for OS X, I obviously would recommend Kerkythea...

Vray for Sketchup will have the mac version

You should also add the Thea Render homepage and Thea Render Forum...

i would not venture to state which one is the best (what is best for me is not necessarily best for you), but the following apps definitely run on mac os x:
cheetah
podium
kerkythea
artlantis
lightup
idx renditioner
vray (coming soon)

currently lux render doesnt have an exporter for sketchup

I wouldnt neccessarily say that iClone is a rendering program. Its a 3D animation program, I know because I make props for their movies (with sketchup). Here is one of my own short animations http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zbmAvdIATiE (sketchup model).

Its useful (ish) as a rendering software though the results tend to vary.
