Kerkythea
-
Now that I am becoming a little more familiar with Sketchup (still quite the newbie, though) I thought I might try my hand at rendering a model. I've never worked with it before and am not even sure how it works but I have been doing a little research and think I have decided to download the Kerkythea renderer. I have found a site that gives me step by step instructions for downloading the program and also what ruby plug ins I'll need (not exactly sure what that is but I'll figure it out).
Anyways, wanted to know if anyone had any opinions about Kerythea. I'm wanting something to try without spending any money first so I can find out if I like it or can even figure it out! Is Kerkythea a user friendly program? Is is good for absolute beginners?
Any opinions and help are greatly appreciated! You guys always give me good advice. Thanks!

Kerkythea is certainly a good program to start learning the intricacies of rendering. Theres a huge amount of support material on their site and the forum is very active. Cant really go wrong

I've used 3 or 4 of the renderers that will work with SU. IMO Kerkythea has the best balance of features and ease of use, though as you get better at it I'm sure you'll start wishing for more features. You can't beat it for free, though.
