Yey! 😍

After a quick look at page 22 and 17 I managed to scale and get my material quite the way I wanted. Thank you so much Fredrik for the guide. It's getting printed first thing tomorrow morning at school 😄 😉

Its hard to sya without having the model, but im guessing the wing details arent showing because te geometry isnt pronounced enough. If you make the gaps between the geometry a bit bigger that should accentuate it a bit, although youve got to be careful not to over do it.

Now it worked! I downloaded three different versions of indigo and none of them were the correct one! Now, with the fourth try it works nicely!
Yeah...i'm stupid!><
Thank you so much for the help!

You are too kind. 😄

By the way, could someone please tell me what the hell I just modeled here? ...or at least point me the direction the rest of the chicken went? 😄

It looks to me like something you'd find in an cough adult boutique cough. 😲

The latest version of Podium supports soft (diffused) shadows, unlike earlier versions. There is no way to change the sunlight implementation, but if you want the shadows even softer, you might be able to position some transparent geometry in front of the sun. I haven't ried it, so I'm not sure if it will work. Might be worth a try though.

Thank you very much. It works. I also found a solution using a lot of omnilights (500) in the direction of sun but needs 28 min to render and not only 5 min.

I had to ask, what is the difference between the render presets?

Please download the new Getting Started tutorial and read page 33 and 34...

Also - I would recommend that you visit the KT Forum where you can make a search for these and similar questions and find a lot of good answers... 😉

Fingers crossed it stays that way.

Aaahhhh.... 😆 😆
Those are render presets... Never used these LR01-04 presets myself... 😉
To be honest I'm not exactly sure what they're used for, but if I remember correct, they're there to help 3dsMax users for some layered render techniques... 😉

Those are useful with post processing, for example if you want to add a controlled bloom.

Thanks Biebel. I will pay more attention to that. I thought I was following the direction of the post, but . .. .alas. . ..

Try try again.

Okay .. .the .lights came on. I get it now. I was skipping a step. All together now. . .
"DUH!" 😄

cool, cheers for the tip.

Ok, the problem is, that VRay 6.0 won't run with my Vista 😞

Fixed it myself!! 😳
Its late ... I forgot about the SmustardOrganizerExcludeFolders exclusion list.
Added the Subsmooth folder to the list and all is well with the world again 😍

Nice work! I cant wait for SDS2 I wont have to do my organics in other apps!!! 😄 😄

Edit:
Yikes didnt mean to bump such an old thread I got linked through a post and commented without looking at the dates!

although i had already praised kim's work privately i may as well say publicly that he is done a helluva job. it is a terrific improvement on what we had before as it covers most of the important topics in a very clear way. well done indeed! 😄

creating a great app is a tremendous effort and must be highly praised. however, i feel that documenting well what you are offering people is almost as important.

the clearer it is how to use KT the more users it will have.

cool- thanks for the info!

Certainly better texturing, using bumps and clipmaps, better camera and more context. I personally would rather use sky or more realistic background colour.
