Very good idea, lets share some people silhouettes. But since this thread is about disco balls, we should move to here: http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=31744

is this useful? (worthy to translate?) http://forums.sketchucation.com/download/file.php?id=38987 we have a topic here : http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=320&t=21870&start=45

Well better late than never. I just hacked together the wooden frame. Not to concerned about any help with that.I basically used the same technique as Dale with the follow me and then intersect with model. I used no plugins. I am just looking for some help with my poly count. And would like some advice with the follow me tool. When I use the follow me tool it seems to leave the rotated solid in pieces and not a circle any more. Is there any way to get around that? [image: Grater.jpg] [image: tang.jpg] Thanks to Solo for starting the model this threads. And thanks to all who posted it was interesting how many different ways one could tackle this model.

here's an old,noisy Maxwell rendering.. *edit... reading is fundamental.. LCD screen...whoops, sorry. [image: tv1by9.jpg]

Sounds good. I wasn't too keen on the bike either...

Some nice attempts of rendering LED strip but you wanna try chip leds as opposed to those 5mm. This would be a lot easier.. http://www.oznium.com/product_photos/large/2753.jpg

LOL...nothing but fun on here! Love it...

Very happy to hear that it's still in the works as well as your commitment to continue making awesome plug-ins. And please remember I'm natural lab rat so if any beta testing is required just let me know.

Awesome! Thanks Pete!

I believe it is only for Max various versions.

I upgraded to Windows 7 Professional, but SOAP still does not work.

@andybot said: It's the "size" value in 2.0. Default is 1.0, that's what you want to increase to get soft shadows. Okay, I'll try it when I get back to PC. Thanks for answering. One more thing, is there any way I can export just the shadows from vray render? I can export raw shadows from native sketchup Jpeg exports but have no idea how to export shadows from vray. I believe that making blurry shadows in vray will increase rendering times, so I am thinking of doing it in photoshop with the "shadow only" export. Still not sure what technique exactly will save my time when I have just one PC for the job.
