Hi Solo,

Reading your post I wanted to find out what was happening regarding the crashes with the material editor, this is behaviour we haven't seen before. I will send you my details, please could you send me further information on what is happening.

Also regarding the render being zoomed out, in the Shaderlight render window we have a Zoom and Pan functionality. You can use the wheel on your mouse to zoom in and out of the render and the left mouse button and drag to pan round the render. This can be done while the image is rendering.

That is amazing, it is a very nice image.

If I had to pick fault, and only because you asked I would say the background image isn't quite late evening enough. It is more noticeable down the right side of the house.

But other than that, nice work!

Hi Oli,

Thanks for the comments. I really enjoy working with Shaderlight, with the Image Based Lighting and interactive updates it does make it easy to get good looking exterior renders. It is fully integrated in to SketchUp so it is easy if you do make any changes, Shaderlight updates automatically.

With regards to the images I know what you mean about gallery images, but these were created pretty quickly and easily, and they honestly have had no Photoshop 'adjustment'.

Give it a try, you can download it for free.

Thanks, I will try to weather the textures a bit. Want to add a bit more geometry to some of the walls as I think some of them look a bit flat. Don't think it would need much.

Hi Guys,

I wanted to post a couple of renders that I have done of the World Cup Stadiums in South Africa in Shaderlight for SketchUp.

Please let me know what you think (in the future going to render them at smaller resolutions).

Hi Jax,

Thank you for your post, glad the fix worked. Just to let everybody know that Shaderlight for Sketchup has now been released as an open Beta. Please give it a try and let us know what you think. It is available to download free from http://www.artvps.com

This is not yet the complete product as we are going to be adding advanced features such as enhanced lighting and our trademark MELT interactivity which is the ability to make interactive changes to materials, environments, lights or textures at any stage in the rendering process without having to restart the render. This will available later this year.
