      Brief introduction to new animation features inside Thea; complex motions.

      [flash=800,480:1v3xuo95]http://www.youtube.com/v/ZhQkVLqVkdk?hd=1[/flash:1v3xuo95]
      Note: Thea does not try to compete with modeling applications that have a rich user interface and algorithms for setting up animation and motion. The important thing for us is the support of such complex motion and a rather minimalistic user interface that uses it.

            Solid Iris Material/Model Libraries (Part 2) for Thea Render licensed users.


            http://www.thearender.com/forum/download/file.php?id=12300

            http://www.thearender.com/forum/download/file.php?id=12299

            and while you browsing Thea forums, grab a Outdoor Furniture Set Model Library to test these new material libraries.

            ps. There is also a Wall Finish library available for the first material library set:

            http://www.thearender.com/forum/download/file.php?id=11844

            Please remember the following:

            1. The materials have been tested thoroughly and render very nicely and fast.
            2. The texture quality is as high as it can get (without using a photo camera that is).
            3. The materials have been created from scratch and are our own copyright - you can use them in your renders without second thoughts (see 4).
            4. The materials are intended to be used in the context of creating images with Thea Render and can be used only by Thea licensed users (no redistribution allowed).

                  A little heads up from Thea Render development: Unbiased TR2 has long been the engine for the most challenging unbiased light simulations. Now TR1, the faster unbiased engine, got a important update... and naturally there is something more available.
                  I personally like a lot about ability to drag and drop material layers, even from a matlab to a another matlab 😍

                  @unknownuser said:

                  Dear friends,

                  after long time, a new (maintenance) update is finally here. And there are lots of new things and improvements accumulated! But first of all, we would like to say a big thank you for your support! πŸ˜„

                  Now, to the meat of this revision! If you have anticipated for it, yes!, this revision includes the improvement with the unbiased TR1 engine being able now to render sun pool caustics. You don't have to set any special setting for sun pool caustics to appear. If they exist, they will be there in the image! This makes Thea unbiased core the most complete around. 😎 For more info, please check out our tech announcement: http://www.thearender.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=7670

                  During all this time with plugin development undergoing, there were also some new features supported by Thea, as byproducts of the integration. One of them are the global model texture coordinates that act as "overriding" coordinates for the material. Thus, you can change the offset/scale/projection for each model now, keeping the same material. Even more, there are more projection modes to choose from now (but please note that support for them in the Viewport has not been implemented yet).

                  One of the last moment improvements was the acceleration of the OpenGL viewport when viewing a textured scene in solid mode. You will find that the viewport is now much more fluent.

                  Various improvements have been also implemented for network rendering. And this makes it a perfect moment for us, to start our Render Farm Beta Program, basically a call to all interested parties wanting to support Thea with their commercial (public) render farms. More details in the days to come (you could also visit our related webpage for some resources).

                  As always, you can find the detailed changes log and download links, in our usual thread:
