          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... πŸ˜‰

            Cheers

                You should also add the Thea Render homepage and Thea Render Forum... πŸ˜‰

                  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)

                      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.


                      iClone Sketchup render

                      If in doubt... DO it!

                              It would be nice if each renderer entry showed whether or not it's free.

                                Hi guys!
                                I suggest you change the price under "Fryrender": at the moment it's 795€, not 395€.
                                This could be misleading.

                                        Here's one that's missing

                                        The new Octane Render (fully interactive, node based, unbiased render on GPU, 15x faster than CPU unbiased renderers)
                                        99 euros, free demo, Windows / Linux / OSX

                                        Currently supporting OBJ only
                                        WILL SUPPORT COLLADA SOON 😍 WOOP

                                        And animation also πŸ˜„

                                          The main highlight will probably be the introduction of new V2 or Keyshot2 version which is still under Beta.
                                          Even for new Shots, with lots of new feature, and I heard there will be unbiased preset as well.
                                          So pretty interesting πŸ˜„

                                            OCtane render. Unbias and runs over GPU. Can smoke Maxwell and Fryrender to dust. 😍
