Re: How would I break down this scene?

Thanks, it sounds like there is no tried and true method. I will probably set up a shadow catching scene using just LW render, I'm currently rendering a test with photon mapping, the examples shown were light mapping, it shouldn't matter either way but I think photon mapping is faster (the look is t...

How would I break down this scene?

http://i1210.photobucket.com/albums/cc401/djwaterman/sequence.jpg This is the beginning, middle and end of a shot that I'm trying to animate with Kray render. It's very simple, a camera pan, a car moving across screen, car has shadow casting on to the floor and also a reflection. So I need to lock ...

Re: Sampling information needed

Thanks for that, still I don't want to have to go over to the V-ray manual when I'm using Kray. From a marketing point of view that shines a light onto V-ray and the user experience for Kray needs to be more inclusive and informative.

Re: Archviz Training DVD - from Evermotion

If Kray comes out with displacement and it's animated GI is rock solid, people would really have to take it seriously, and an in depth introduction into working with Kray would be something new users would be searching for.

Re: Can I use my unlock code to unlock demo version

I just found the Kray licence tool in my additional plugins and used it to enter the unlock code, but Kray still has the watermark when I render. What is the procedure?

Can I use my unlock code to unlock demo version

I just got Kray and my unlock code and wonder if there is a way to unlock the demo version of Kray that I'm using rather than having to uninstall and install the new version?

Kray tutorial videos

I'm just looking through the Kray video tutorials and they are a real source of well explained information. After a week of playing around with Kray I've just found out a bunch of vital stuff that I should have been tweeking. However the videos are not down-loadable, therefore we can't quickly acces...

Re: Kray only render once then freezes

Just another thing that I've noticed during my renders. The sequence I was rendering froze at one point and I had to shut LW and then restart the render from the last frame. Well I've noticed that the first 1-3 frames will kind of blow out a little before adjusting into a more stable render, almost ...

Re: Kray only render once then freezes

Here is more information about my computer than you would want as an attachment. But I don't think it is my computer or even Kray, it's more likely the scene. The scene is kind of heavy and it would take me a while to edit out all the unused textures and object layers in the file directories so I ha...

Kray only render once then freezes

Hi, I'm still using the demo version and I'm liking it more and more, but I've just en-counted an issue when rendering. I have Kray demo installed in LW 10 and LW 9.6, I don't get this problem in LW 10, only in 9.6. Anyway what happens is I set off a render and it renders the frame and all is well. ...

Re: installation troubles

Sooo, no one is getting Kray working on LW 9.5, is that correct? I'm asking because I'm having the same problem and I've done a fresh reinstall of LW and it's still not working. I just want to confirm that it won't work in 9.5 so I can move on.

Re: Artificial indoor Lightiing with no sun light

Brilliant. Although that header command seems like something that should just be a button for as dummies to click. So far I'm liking the results.
