Hope you guys got it sorted out...

Where's the candy, please, sir?

Here's the final result, with 1296-sided spheres. I will use vray to make some cliched eye-candy! The walls will be very colourful and stripy, and the spheres will be a mix of glass, frosted glass and metal, the ceiling will be a light-source and the ground a mirror. I will make a 360x180 panorama from where the camera is now.

Just realised model didn't upload.
It's 156MB! where can I upload it?
Eye candy will take a while also, rendering will take ages!

Here's the first preview

Looks awesome !!
Try Google docs I think it will accept that size file.

Nice work getting it done, and nice render. Please consider posting these as you make them.

Thank you
I will post whenever I make any progress, but that's pretty slow atm... I've just made some vray materials, and added coloured stripes to the room, but the noticeable change will be when I apply the materials to the balls. There are 4 materials, and they will be applied randomly.
It's quite overdone - once you find vray or any other renderer, a lot of people just make a room and fill it with shiny spheres. However I've noticed most people just spread them around the floor, I've never seen them floating randomly in 3d before.

Ok, and here my info

Here my list of thangs that may help:
1 select all- make group.
2 select all- make coponent.
3 OpenGL-use max text= off.
4 style - edges= off, when editing or viewing large objects in model.
5 Enitity egde work is copy over from another sketchup.
6 I move the total model center to orgin [0,0,0].

Instead of 15 sec, it now 3 to 4 sec

And why to do this, it the speed.
