      quelle galère

      Patience is a virtue. Having an app have backwards compatibility along with supporting multiple different GPUs and CPUs etc is challenging for a single developer.

        Agreed, getting this far this fast as a one man band, part time. Wow.

        Being in beta still, imperfection is a given but the ride is still good and hoping I am contributing sufficiently.

            Hey guys,

            Looking into the crashes.

            Hello, if I leave Rayscaper open and import a texture directly onto a face (with the import tool) it crashes

            Was this on the first texture, or after multiple imports?

            I can't create an emissive material with an image, if I increase the power the image disappears and the texture is white. I can't make a monitor screen. Can someone help me?

            Currently, Rayscaper doesn't support emission with a texture. Which image are you talking about? Maybe a screenshot of your setup helps me understand it better.

            Another crash when reopening RS and trying to apply a texture

            Looking into the crashes, I think (I hope) I found the root cause.

            I understand the frustrations, and I appreciate your help in making the software a lot better!

            Cheers,
            Thomas

              I created a surface and imported a texture

              I found a solution to make an image emissive: for example for PC screens on the following images I make a copy of the face that must receive the image and I place it in front 2 or 3 millimeters of the initial face to which I applied an emissive. On this copy of the face I put my image as texture and I increase the Transmission slider, and it works well. (I just discovered this feature!)

                    @Krass Great renders! Glad you found a workaround. That computer screen looks believable to me.

                    (www.krea.ai)

                    You render it grainy in a low res, and then let it upscale? Or do you enhance the images in other ways with AI?

                    BTW, I found the issue, will post a fix shortly. The crash occurs when you load too many thumbnails in the asset browser.

                    Cheers,

                      I use AI Upscale to get a sharper render and correct details, characters, it improves materials, wood, etc.

                          Oh well, that lasted a long time did it not.

                          I cannot run Rayscaper, it is installed but, when I start the app the !render! window will not open.

                          All this happened post a diffusion update.

                            Hello, Pixelcruncher,
                            I'have installed RS 9.6.9
                            I'm testing it. When I hide a SU tag it stays visible. The only way seems to Hide a group so that it will not be visible. So: we can't use Hide/reveal Tags?

                              Going cold turkey, sketchup is completely uninstalled for a while.

                                This time I have a scene that is a bit heavy, I copied an entire apartment in duplicate and when I open RS, it is active but the window does not want to enlarge and remains stuck in the taskbar. We can see in the thumbnail that it is working on the project, it is rendering... but I also did not have a Rayscaper loading window

                                  The latest version is broken for me... I installed it and I don't think I restarted SU and it worked. But now the window is stuck in the taskbar;
                                  I'm going to reinstall 9.6.4 to test.
