Not that I'm planning to upgrade to v11, yet, but with the announcement of native instancing I'm wondering how this will work with Kray. Will Kray see see it?

Not without an update. We need to check the LW11 SDK but we should be able to add support for it.

That would be fantastic: LW11 instances are insanely powerful, seem very well implemented and render (from my early tests) just as fast as K-Ray native ones. Of course you might have something even better up your sleeve for KRay 3...

Guys can you show some test renders?

Here's a scene you might recognize
On my 8-core VPR takes about 15 seconds to get to the level you see in the image, while rendering - with some decent AA and radiosity settings - about 3 minutes; which is exactly the same time it takes to KRay with the scene's default settings. Pretty impressive, I would say, and add to that the amount of control available AND the OGL preview of instances and you have a very happy me.

Very good ...I watch future with happines

Me to. i watch Vfx Mind lw3dv11 with happines a lot.

u have really abd cpu bro / because i have lw 11 and i do instancing grass with lw 11 in vpr . my grass have 1million poly i do instance in instancer mybe 365000 in few sec i see my render in Vpr so i dont think so kray 2.2 or 2.3 or 2.4 the same speed as lightwave 11 ok.

and all we know very hard to do great grass and more time for rendring .


how G.T make some great features in Kray 3 . about grass and somethink like that and microdisplacement eX........
