Rayscaper Alpha Version Available
-
I am back in my office and have the same issue.
I can not open again the file of the tramway, that I saved with the render settings a day before.
When I open an empty skp file it works, when I open the tramwayfile su imidiatly crashs.
I'll send you my file via email, to inspect.
here is the protocol:

I created a new scene, imported the same model, hit the refresh but some faces still remained blue.
I've sent you the file to review what's wrong.
-
next problems:
I created a scene, that I ususally use for my customers.
1: the drawer is not visible in render
2: the renderfile is not saved.
3: when I reopen the file SU again crushed
4: it is not possible to recover the skp filereally not a good start...
If you want, I can send you the Skp


-
fortunately it is possible to recover the file, when opening an empty one and importing the old one....
but the rayscaper- materialsettings of the model are lost
-
I am getting better at it.

That's very nice Majid. DOF is perfect.

thank you Thomas:
one problem is solved:a 15 year old path with a "ü" inside was the problem.
I have to rename it.
I took the file to another folder and I can open it.
interseting: more textures are blue now, I have to refresh each texture to get rid of the blue color.
and the drawer is suddenly visible.
The file was able to save and this is my first result:

Do you mind sending the scene so I check why the drawer is not rendering?

Hmm, you shouldn't reload everything by hand, so that's another bug. One thing I found interesting is that there are a ton of texture load failures when peeking at the log file you sent me just now:
Like for example:
2024-01-05 14:00:39.847 ( 156.978s) [PreProcessWorker] ImageLoader.h:73 ERR| Image 'C:\Users\KehlJ\Downloads\Fencing_Diamond_Mesh.png' does not exist.
2024-01-05 14:00:39.847 ( 156.978s) [PreProcessWorker] ImageLoader.h:73 ERR| Image 'C:\Users\KehlJ\Downloads\Translucent_Glass_Sky_Reflection_.jpg' does not exist.
2024-01-05 14:00:39.847 ( 156.978s) [PreProcessWorker] ImageLoader.h:73 ERR| Image 'D:\Dropbox\su\texturen\holzboden\22. R3107L Wiÿnia Hamilton 130 x130 cm Pfleiderer.jpg' does not exist.So it looks like Rayscaper has issues loading those files.

Ooh very nice, always happy to see renders made with Rayscaper. Keep them coming!

I've sent you the file with the cabinet, to inspect.

I would like to suggest that RayScaper reach out to thr Twilight Render team and see if it would be possible for the two teams/companies work out some type of merger/get together. TR has announced a “sunset” although they have had a great product and excellent support team. Looking at where RayScaper is headed and where TR has been, it seems like they could possibly come up with a great product with a great support team.
Just to let you know, I have made the same proposal to the TR team.

One more suggestion: start a forum. Maybe it is too early though.

I reinstalled rayscaper on my notebook.
I reopend the test file, that I made yesterday, but most of material are lost.
The file is saved in my dropbox.
So this one worked after refreshing the HDRI? Still I think that’s a bug, Rayscaper shouldn’t have amnesia and forget about your configuration.
If this happens again, would you mind sending the log? That should give me a clue of why it failed to load the HDRI.
Thanks,
Thomas -

OK, I've found out: HDR has to be refreshed.
The tramwaymodel renders well exept the blue surfaces.

Thanks jo-ke for reporting. I can reproduce this bug locally and plan to have a release this week that fixes this bug, and the umlaut crash.

Please keep us posted when the Mac OS version is out
I want to test it so bad -

I want to test it so badHey SandraEli,
Thanks for the interest! A Mac version is in the works, but the primary focus is to remove the alpha label and release a rock-solid Windows version.
I will keep you posted when the Mac version is out.
Cheers,
