            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˜„

              Not posted I guess! 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. 😍

                  Hi guys, Have any of you used Shaderlight? Just found a beta on their
                  website after seeing some world cup stadium renders in the gallery and
                  was wondering if anyone has given it a go.

                    Hiya All

                    I have seen no mention of :

                    mitsuba renderer, those interested might want to head over to http://www.mitsuba-renderer.org/.

                      You can see it mentioned in the Extensions & Applications Discussions section in the Mitsuba Physically Based Render...

                      Reason why you don't see it in this list is most likely because there's no exporters developed between Mitsuba render and SU... 😐

                        sweet. but no one's using sketchup is going to profit from the specific strength of that engine: Nurbs. Still, it's nice for something like Rhino

                          I'm pretty sure mitsuba extensively uses the collada format for its scene intake, which I would call support for sketchup, wouldn't you? Plus it's fast becoming popular.

                                Actually to be a complete geek, mental ray is actually not an Autodesk product but a "mental images" product who is owned by Nvidia. Autodesk only bundle mental ray into their apps.

                                      @ledisnomad, Little correction related to Thea Render, it has both biased and unbiased engines and also does work as a interactive renderer.

                                          This is a very helpful list. If I could, I think I'd buy VRay, Vue, Maxwell, and Lumion so I would have speed, natural landscapes, unbiased realism, and animations respectively. But I can't afford all that.

                                          There's always a lot of debate over the best renderer for a certain set of critera. Would it be possible and desired to create a robust spreadsheet of these renderers to compare their features, benefits, and best uses? I've started a very simple one and will attach it. What would be the best way to allow people to collaborate on filling in the blanks and adding more information?

                                            Here's a slight update for Maxwell with maybe a few more interesting comparative categories.

                                            Best,
