      I'm still learning, and I hope the program's creator will allow me to provide feedback and suggest improvements. I'm a beginner with SketchUp and have tried many rendering programs that work independently, like Stanalone. I think it's great that it supports Intel OpenImage Denoiser. I'd like contrast control added to the post-processing section, and full PBR properties added, along with additional materials like transparent liquids, bubbled, fizz, and airborne water.

            About hdri scale I think Alattab means a physical dôme, like infinite dôme in vray, that can be stretched and scaled. This is very usefull. It is an hemisphere

              To make the program fully functional without relying on external applications, background and overlay options can be added to this list.

                    @Alattab For someone still being in the learning phase, I'm already seeing some pretty impressive results 🙂

                    And don't shy away from the feedback, love it! I take all the feedback seriously and try to add those as new features as I go.

                    I'd like contrast control added to the post-processing section

                    A new water material is coming soon. And I will iterate on that to give more options.

                      @Alattab Okay, that makes more sense. You want a backplate image to compose on? And the front would be to for example put your own logo and watermark on top of it?

                        @pixelcruncher Actually, I want to use clip art in the foreground, like grass and other elements, which usually add a sense of depth.

                            As an aside, to quickly edit multiple lights, you can select multiple ones with CTRL / SHIFT + click and edit their properties at the same time.

                              Hey, Rayscaper users!

                              Rayscaper 0.9.84 Beta is available. You can get it via:

                              • The SketchUcation store.
                              • Direct download: Rayscaper_Win_0.9.84_Beta.rbz.

                              I recommend upgrading to the latest version.

                              What Changed?

                              • Add animation completion dialog. When a scene animation finishes rendering, a dialog now displays render statistics including total time, samples rendered, and frames completed.
                              • Fix crash when minimizing the Rayscaper window via Windows "Show Desktop" (Win+D). The application now handles minimized states gracefully.
                              • Improve scene archiving by extracting SketchUp embedded textures when external files are not available. This ensures textures are always included in exported archives.

                              Help Me Build the Community 👍

                              If you like Rayscaper, please share your renders (final or work-in-progress, it doesn't matter)! This is motivating and helps me showcase its capabilities to new users.

                              Follow me on X.

                              Happy Rendering!

                                That's great, thank you! It's excellent to be able to see the information at the end of the render. I've started the next part of my animation project. In HD mode.

                                    @pixelcruncher Is it now possible to display the materials of the sets if they are painted on the outside without the need to paint the surfaces on the inside?

                                    Have liquids been added to the materials list and Specular maps? I would appreciate it if you could attach images of updated Apti elements.
