Good Alternative for Rendering Software/Plugin?

[Click Draw]

Hi All,

Been away from here for too long. I'll be upgrading my Sketchup to the newest version and would like some input on whats available for good rendering software. I currently have Sketchup Pro 8 and V-Ray. V-Ray is not supporting 2017 yet. Input welcome and appreciated.

Thank you,
Jeff

I would recommend Thea Render simply because it is the best implemented renderer for SketchUp.
If you have a Nvidia GPU you can also render with both GPU and CPU with Thea Presto.

Why not try the very funny and easy and free Real Time Render
Simlab Composer Light ? (maxi 1920 * 1080)
Import directly Skp format but also any 3D format !
