Thanks Jose it will come in handy.

Yeah, Rangerrick, I think I would opt for modeling the dots next time, or leave them out alltogether.
The vinyl record is just an image I got from the internet.

Hey Rangerrick, I downloaded the turntable, tweeked it a little bit, and tried my hand in Thea (I can use the practice), need a little more work especially on those polkadots pattern, but overall it rendered for an hour and a half, lit by only a spot light.
Thanks for the inspiration.

Nice render Rangerrick, mind if I ask where you got the record bump map?

Welcome

I hear you Bigstick, it seems to be working on/off and can get frustrating, but it promises to be a great plugin, and I hope all the bugs will be worked out.

I tried all 3 versions, none worked properly, but after reading all 25 pages of forum, and about an hour and a half of loading and re-loading plugins, it's FINALLY working well for me, hope it stays that way. Rendering in Thea,
but the alpha channels do not import, but no big deal, I do it manually, and renders just fine.
Thank you Pierreden.

Thanks Tig, always willing to learn something new.

I just did a test on that, and I too get shadows on PNGs

It sure does.

Ditto Fredo

Same here, Health and Happiness to all.

9 and 11 for me. The door handle and lock placed in the middle of the door, makes the scene feel out of scale, like short people would live there.

I've used this quite a lot.

YES, excellent tool, Thank you

Please do.

I believe the trial pro version should default back to the free version, and you can still use it till you save
up the money, that's what I've been doing.

count me in since I do a lot of post pro

Thank you

Have you gone to (view/toolbars/save toolbar positions)
