I have published a new batch of video tutorials this time dealing with Photon tab. I recorded them with voice this time. It's my first time doing tutorial with live voice so I hope they are not too bad.

Please let me know if you like them or not or have any other suggestions.

I just watched the new vids.
Very very nice and the voice commentary makes everything clear. I didn't even understand some settings in the manual and this makes it very clear with practical samples.
Btw about those low,high, steps settings. Since you say they shouldn't be touched at all then maybe its better for kray to remove those setting from the user. Making such setting transparent to users would make it more userfriendly. I don't think vray has an equivalent of those settings and I dont think people will miss it.
Also the power settings. I always thought that its best to keep it from .5 to 1.0.

Thanks... Well yea I agree about removing those settings. And we will do so for the next Kray upgrade where the interface will be rewritten in a more stable code and cleaned up of the "unnecessary" settings.

0.5 - 1.0 is fine as long as it looks good to you. You should be aware though that by setting it to 0.5 then you will be loosing some of the bounced light. Now if you have a very bright scene than this may be desirable otherwise not... So use whatever works best for you.

Any chance the general tab video will get some voice commentary? :P
I'm sure there's a lot of tricks,settings I don't know regarding the diffuse model and gi mode. :lol:
It was hard to follow the text balloons. :wink:
Looking forward to the next vids. Thanks again for doing these.
