      Hey Dave,

      I figured out that supporting SU2020 requires another Rayscaper build (because it requires re-compilation against a different Ruby version). This is a bit more work, can you try it out with SU2021 or higher?

      No, 2020 is the latest version I have.

          Nice Rich πŸ‘

          Do you have an interior and/or exterior model that you could render and post in this thread?

            Here's an interior render of a guggenheim-ish type scene...

            Rayscaper is still earlier in development so I'm reluctant to push it. It does have certain shading artifacts that I've let Thomas know about.

            But overall I think it's very capable. I love the Polyhaven integration.

              Is there a shadow catcher material?

              If you see a toilet in your dreams do not use it.

                Thanks Rich. I as hoping for something like a room or office setting but I understand that it is early in the cycle. Wish it would work with SU 2020.

                  Not yet, but it's planned, should be there in a couple of weeks.

                  Here's the planned road map for 1.0: https://rayscaper.com/docs/roadmap/

                      Yes, I'm looking into supporting SU2020. It will be part of one of the upcoming releases.

                      And yes, I plan to offer great software that everyone can afford. Of course with a discount for premium members.

                          Could you check if you can get it via these instructions? If that doesn’t help, send me a private message.

                            I watched your YouTube video and seems the engine is great. Just installed and seems I have a problem. Maybe because I have no SCF plugin toolbar installed.

                            PS: it solved, I installed the SCF plugin and now I have the Rayscraper!

                                    29% without any denoising and I believe it is good enough.
                                    I stopped it on 49% progress and it seems good (despite without any denoising)

                                        due to the sunset of twilghtrender I stumbled across this new alternative.

                                        downloaded and licensed it today.

                                        looks promissing....

                                            It has a Glass shader in the Material Type dropdown[1]

                                            and for the Disney shader you can enable Emmission for geometry[2]
