To be fair with the sheer amount of different systems and hardware out there it must be a nightmare keeping things compatible on PC.

That said getting vital info like you discovered I would consider to be valuable for D5 to trap for.

But if you are a rare outlier with some bespoke system it may not be worth the effort to firefight.

At least you found a solution.

Some greeble fun!

Rayscaper beats Maxwell render hands down

Rayscaper is about to enter into Phase 2 which I'm super excited to see.

Mysterious.

Behind the door is a perpetual license for SketchUp 2025….

The Making of a Steinway Piano

No, but I just did. AI can't do what those folks can. There's a lot to be said talented craftspeople. Such a nice job too.

I couldn't get SketchUp to make the black keys properly so I just horsed in basic stuff. I hoped the high DOF would hide the shortcuts.

I did the famous Robatto Piano render in Blender so I could help Thomas start to dial in some stuff for RayScaper. I actually saw the original image on X and thought it was a good excerise for lighting and camera position.

RayScaper still does need some work regarding normals and light/dof values but its still impressive and fun to use. Fast too

Now tell me how you get that pattern.

It's the Checkerboard material SketchUp ships with under Patterns

@HornOxx Lovely presentation and modelling. Not a fan of that AO style though. I find it looks more like dirt.

The modelling and texturing is spot on!

@Gus-R the initial rough start is slowly blossoming into beautiful friendship.

these are great too!

@HornOxx Haha! Love it

I did something similar a few years ago with a galaxy.

Animator is such a cool extension!

@L-i-am Handsome result. Postcard scene

Some renders of lights I did...

If you hadn't mention what it was I would've guessed it was this...

At least I now know what it is you are building!

Clever use of a tight space! I like the open shelving too.

The first is a vibe.

All of them are yummy.

I think I'll buy you a lawnmower

Did you try looking into the Indie game scene. So many out there looking for 3D modellers to get in at ground level to help them populate worlds with assets.

I know its not your usual stuff but might be an option?

Lovely.....cut the grass Gus! Hope your new pad is going well!

Critique is good. It pushes someone to raise their level. For me, the feedback of 'awful' or 'bad' can be construed as a rude comment.

Gus' stuff may not be your flavour of the month. But I think critique, even when negative, should be delivered with at least a level of class.

@Rich-O-Brien could you kindly point where exactly the insult happened? BTW have you seen what topic starter posted here and later deleted?

No probs....

I see Gus' stuff too. TBH, I don't want to police internet beefs.

I just want to be the oil on the water.

You work wonders in tight spaces.
