Rendering
-
Ok, so everyone knows rendering. Except me. I have no clue how to use Kerkythea. Help! PS the tutorial did not help me one bit

rendering is a slippery slope, once you start there is no stopping, it's addictive and will demand all your drinking time.
Secondly, I would try something easier to begin with, like Twilight, Podium, Irender, get the basics and then as you get the knowledge and the terminology and feel you need more bells and whistles then move on at your own pace.

No, i use Podium now, but am switching to Kerky. I know how to render, jost not in Kerky. XD sorry for the mixup

What in particular are you having trouble with? Exporting? Assigning materials? Modifying textures? Lighting? The Kerky forums are a great place to start, but I'll help where I can - and Majid has turned out some fantastic Kerky renders here too, maybe he'll chime in.

Assigning Materials, mainly. And modifying textures. i have SU2K (the exporting program)

Spend some time on the kerky forum. THere is a great pdf about the material manager. and a video about the newer version of it. It is quite informative. Even I was able to get a decent render out of it for a photo sim I had to do.

Thanks!

Yes like Chris said. Spend some time on the forum reading all the posts that relate to you. Then post some of your images there with some question.

Kerkythea tutorials master list is a good spot to start learning. btw you can find Fast Start 4 Architects by Majid Yegane there (maybe the easiest tutorial for beginners).
