Updated settings for actual release.
Please do not change anything in settings. Soon I will catch the best balance for three quality levels button (fast prev/medium/high) and we will hide all.
It will be only a few buttons in K3 include hidden Anti-Aliasing. All option will be available later by pressing Advanced button in menu.

9m 30s - not bad for animation.

Actually this scene is killer - a lot metal surfaces with LimitDR regions (high contrast pixels)...nightmare for Anti-Aliasing and reflection blur.

k2.62 with same paramater K3,
With K3, 4min45 and I did not find how to save the image for full screen view and compare.
The time saving is 20% on this small stage. Only 257k poly.

There is Kray3Output plugin. Select path and file format. To compare images you need same light setting. In K2 will be difficult without physky2. Also you need make override render to see GI. Scene is very basic and contain basic surfaces. Try maybe loft scene in K2 to get same quality.

A very strange bug - the first time I opened this scene and everything was fine. But when I opened it a second time - the renderer gives a full white color. No geometry, etc. Only white color. I can not force K3 to render a normal rendering of this scene again. With some of my scenes happening now the same.

Trying catch this since 3 months....very rare. If you will catch this every time when hit render (also after restarting Lightwave) - send me scene.

If I remove all K3 settings from the scene, run a second copy of the LW with this scene and copy all settings from it into this scene in the first instance of LW again - everything works well and even faster (-68sec) than it was for the first time.

Yes, there is some issues in lws, probably some old commands from K3 are left and after update it`s mess with with new K3.
I will watch this in future.
