        The best answer I can give you is the following...

        Porting the code to Mac is turning out to be more difficult than expected. 99.9% of the code is cross platform, yet there are so many little difference when building software on a Mac that the term "cross platform" is just a mean little joke. However, it is being actively pursued. But I can't give any dates because it's all new territory for me. 😳

        I can add that Chris is working hard on it...

        Cheers
        Kim Frederik

                On the Twilight site I saw it's possible to export a scene as xml. Does this mean I can assign materials in Sketchup and then render in Kerky? Are the materialsettings put in with Twilight stored when exported to xml?

                      Well, with the registered version, you can export scenes to Kerky.

                      BUT even with the free version, after setting your materials, you can save the skp file and all the settings will be saved (except for Kerky library settings most probably - as those libraries will vary from computer to computer).

                      So just have a look at this model:

                      download and render it without setting anything.

                      Gai...

                        Twilight render looks very interesting πŸ‘ πŸ‘ πŸ‘ . Does anyone know if it has the capability to render a section / Perspective Section? I would find this very handy like most if it does. πŸ˜„ πŸ˜„ πŸ˜„

                          Hi Sekta,

                          Currently this is the method:

                          but there are plans to render real cuts (without erasing geometry) as you can read here:

                          Twilight will render section cuts in a future release.

                            Gai,

                            Thanks for the response. The fact that Twilight will be able to render sections in future has me sold on it. Kerky has been a great free companion though. πŸ‘ πŸ‘ πŸ‘
