snoopy1963 Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 Hi Just need some recommendations for a rendering platform that is compatible with CA 13 and if I can produce high quality realistic renderings with it and your thoughts on the best rendering program out there. Also, planning on getting a new PC that will handle the software. Thanks! Roland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidJPotter Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 Before spending more money for Twin Motion, V Ray, Luminion etc, like Rab said above, Learn how to adjust settings for materials, Backdrops, lighting and other adjustable parameters with in Chief first.

ericepv Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 Ditto to what both David and Rene said. Importing your project to render in other software just adds one more layer of complexity which hardly seems worth it given the level of quality available from X13.

MarckusW Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Roland, I think you need to gauge what your clients need. I can get close in Chief and then touch up in Lightroom. My partner in Argentina needs a higher level so goes Chief to Lumion and sometimes Photoshop. My belief is Chief is working on further controls for Ray Tracing so you may wish to put off another engine until we see what happens in 14. This is Chief and LR. The bath rooms are "vanilla" and were meant to get the client to engage, to realize she can see it before it is executed. The kitchen is a lot closer to final design.

robdyck Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 I think Chief works pretty good for rendering Chief models... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
