TheaRender for sketchup web site
-
@JGA There’s a huge mess involving AltairOne, Siemens, and TheaRender. Tomasz, the developer, is supposedly on this forum, but he doesn’t respond to private messages. Siemens support believes the website is under reconstruction and claims that the software can be renewed or purchased through Altair—but Altair, in turn, doesn’t answer any questions. It’s truly exhausting for users. Complete disorganization.
A real shame.
But at least there’s Rayscaper now. -
@micione Sorry to hear about the mess, that's no fun when you depend on a tool for your work. In the meantime, the door is open:
For anyone coming from Thea Render, I wrote a guide that shows where everything you know from Thea lives in Rayscaper: material presets, Thea lights, sun/sky/IBL, the Darkroom settings and more: Coming from Thea Render
Questions or things you miss from Thea? Let me know here, I'm happy to help.
Thomas
Edit: Just to be clear, the meme is an innocent jab, nothing more. I don't wish anyone at Thea, Altair or Siemens anything bad, and I certainly hope nobody loses their job over this. Thea has been a great renderer for SketchUp for many years, and I hope its users get the answers they need soon.

Consider Kerkythea too,

Another cool classic and easy render very complete and permit to mix multi formats from any 3D World programs!

Of course 1900 * 800 max but...
In any case many more easy and speed than Kerkythea!PS
No activation Needed
Just install the program then select “lite edition” at the first run!
Not tested again since a long time but I am pretty sure that is always working! (Ai said yes! )
You can go there for few images by me and a little trick for have 1920 * 1080 officially !

@micione
Noted, mate. Hoping it's part of the security thing going on right now, at least they have a chance to recover. -
@pilou
Kerkythea has not been updated for a long time and frankly, is old tech now.
It still helped a lot of us explore rendering. -
Yep Kerky in the past that was only free one for SU...
-
@micione The overlay function is missing.
-
@micione Just a heads up, the latest release (0.9.104) was translated in Italian. I don't know how good/bad they are; I used AI. So some things might look weird.
I'm the developer of Rayscaper: https://rayscaper.com/ - Fast and easy rendering for SketchUp.
-
@pixelcruncher Ok. I'll take a look .Thank you
-
At first glance the translation seems very good
-
@micione Thanks for checking! It's all using ChatGPT, my Italian is not great
- But if there's something we need to reword, please let me know.
