Hi,

I don't know if this is of any interest for anybody but I thought it would be a good idea to share it here.
There's a manual available for Artlantis V2.
It can be obtained here: http://www.artlantisobjects.com/html/manual.html

Here are some examples done in artlantis. Because the videos come from youtube the quality is 'YOUTUBE'.

I still hope it gives you an impression what can be done in Artlantis.

Kevin,

Good start. You could try to make the building more impressive by lowering your camera and walk somewhat closer to the building. You will get more detail about the building.

Version 2 is indeed slower than previous version. Something that is common in the wonderfull world of software. Newer software, more features, higher quality demands memory and calculation power. In the case of ArtLantis it is a low price considering the improvement of quality.

Michael,

Your config looks OK. One thing I can think of.....The latest version of Quicktime seems to be not too stable. I heard more complaints and not only in combination with ArtLantis. You could try to return to the previous version and see what happens. I still have 7.3.1 and averything works fine.

Please let us know what happens.

Thanks Guys,

For me it was the main reason to choose ArtLantis.
You can find me more often in the ArtLantis forums.

Abvent Hijacked me for testing

ArtLantis expensive compared to other render engines??

Isn't it about getting a living? In the time a machine is occupied rendering a scene with Maxwell and I can bill my client f.i. 200 Euros for that image ArtLantis rendered 4 - 5 images worth that money.

It's not about working hard but working smart.
