Could you show up the bad render, for us to check if you're missing sunsky plugin or still rendering with older Kray for some reason (some guys had some problems with overwriting their old plugins in Layout) Also please check if the Kray settings look something else than default (not 0 in every plac...

Great work Larry! Of course the image is still a little flat in my eyes, as in empty... Maybe the cross detail in the front should be more visible some way, maybe different texturing on the cross than the back of it... Maybe too much glow to my liking, it kinda flattens the image just a little, but ...

We are sorry if the name lead you wrong, but as a sharp customer there is a reason why I wrote up all the text in the ad too... To tell what is there and what is not. We will be changing the name and branding of the product at the next release though. But to tell you the truth, the architectural tra...

Thanks Jure for putting this up as sticky. Yes 3Dwired (3Dweird) site is a little clumsy at the moment, but it will be updated in a month to be really user friendly.

We are also working hard on the next content packages exclusive for Lightwave and Kray users.

Well yea, it's just a technicality how you want to invoice the client or make the quote in what form. Some of my clients will think it's easier they ask "how much 3 images", than how much time and hours are going to be spent on it. But STILL I calculate the actual time for the project, and...

I don't think it's about what the "piece of art" should cost, just calculate the real hours you have to spend on the project as sharp as you can estimate, and give your price according to this. The best way to confirm clients is really to say that "Price is xx Euros, and the time we h...

I see you are rendering with OB6, Update to OB8 which is already released and this problem will go away (Frame aspect ratio crash bug, not sure why but some wide x height of the render size causes crash in the older Kray when antibanding...)
