Looking for beta testers for a new render engine

Yramtfard

I'd be happy to test out a new render engine! Am currently using Vray and Twinmotion for Sketchup for both personal and work. It would be nice to have a true inhouse rendering system.

Hey there,

Thanks for your interest; I will put you on our list and contact you when we start testing. The aim is to have great integration with SketchUp, as good as the API allows us.

What do you think can be improved in the Vray or Twinmotion workflows?

Cheers,
Thomas

Hey folks,

Just an update to tell you that there won’t be an update this week. Moving across the world this week, and my development rig is somewhere halfway. I am typing this on my phone. I appreciate the interest and look forward to squashing bugs with all of you very soon.

Cheers,
Thomas

I'm currently trying to level my design skills up as a hobby so I can eventually use them for a future design career. I have a light background with computers/coding and 3d design. I would love to help test your creations out !

Have a good one!

Hey Dinesh21,

Thanks for your interest! From your profile I see you don't have a SketchUp pro licence, the software I'm building works only for pro.

Cheers,

Hey franthesco,

Thanks for reaching out. My Spanish is not great; I would say even non-existing. So I'm looking for testers that can provide feedback in English.

Cheers,

Hello, I am an artist, studied architecture and communications, practiced much with sketchup. I am a fan of new technologies like virtual reality and voice recognition, help improve sketchup would make me feel accomplished and would in a sense consist in a personnal dream realisation. I would love sketchup to consider hiring me for beta testing, I feel that is where I should be and it would allow my passion and potential to be put to profit. I would be priviledge to be considered by sketchup team and be contacted for more information about my skills. I had to try

Hey folks,

It's been a while since my last update. I've been making a cross-Atlantic move, so Rayscaper wasn't always my highest priority for the last weeks. I'm settled now and back at it!

I uploaded another preview video on YouTube: https://youtu.be/lh8Eynrn6L8.

Thanks for the interest so far! I think we have a good-sized beta group now that will help us get valuable feedback. Rich O'Brien has been testing with early builds and is helping me fix the most apparent crashes (Cheers, Rich!). The plan is to start beta testing soon... I could put up a test build right now, but I want to ensure it's a bit more stable.

Stay tuned here for more, and let me know if you have any questions about Rayscaper.

Cheers,
Thomas

Hey folks,

Attached is a screenshot of Rayscaper 0.6.4 Alpha in the original post.

I appreciate your patience. I was hoping to be already beta testing, but it's not going as quickly as I expected. We are alpha testing, and we will make builds available soon to people with the stomach to play around with alpha software.

Cheers,
Thomas
