A good article on "What is the best renderer? " 2004-02-16 - By RorrKonn
Back This has been around since May 16th, 2002.What's that TS5,LW6,C47 ? Makes the article out dated don't it ? http://www.zaon.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=299 He said TS in hi report.well has he even ever done a Render in TS ? Who is qualified to compare 3D Apps ? The Artist that has a Reg# Version of all the Apps he is Comparing and has made a 15 minuet Video in each App using all the Apps tools and showing us the Videos.until then they haven't given me one reason to listen to them.Even if someone did all this and said get " 3D App xyz " Well how does he know what I like ? TrueSpace does not even have a Render Engine.TS uses Works,Virtual. So if we made a plug to tie TS and RM would they call TS Hi End then ? Was Hydra out in 2002 ? if we had a Hydra Plug would they call TS Hiend then ? Cause they have a Render Engine that what ? makes something glow,glare,scatter they call that hi end ? cause it does a little something.for $1000's LW has a $500 render plug http://www.worley.com/ don't remember if they said about used that or not in the inter view.
Anyways everyone is entitled to there opinion. This is mine. What make 3D Apps, Hi End our the $$$ Plugs. Now LW makes Max plugs.C4 makes Plugs for several of the $$$ Apps. Any App that supports NextLimet,Hydra,RM,RH,DT,xForg,WB etc etc has got to be The " Hi End " cause that's it all.if you " have it all " well...
Now how can they say LW is Hi End and TS is Med End when TS has Edges. Now how can they say C4 is Hi End and TS is Med End when TS has Polygon Draw,Add Edges. + I could write book about the strong and week points of 3D Apps,I'm not thou. Now how can they say ... Answer : they don't know what there talking about. tell them to get educated.
And of course the Biggest Factor." We our Human " Some of us Well Like one App and not the other, for no logical reason you can explain,other then ." We our Human "
The Last Factor : Millions use 3D only a handfull show much.why ? If you haven't produced with one App why spned $$$ Not to produce in amother App ? what Apps produced the Most work ? the easy to use Apps Poser,zBrush etc etc 99% thay don't produce Pro Grade works but there easy fast produced works.
What i would call a " the Hi End App ".a 3D App thats easy to learn and easy to run.that produced Pro Grade work.at a afordable Price.in a resonable amount of time.This i have not seen.
All the $$$ Plus.To Much for one Human to run it all.need a crew. TS,LW,C4 One person can run them and produce Pro Grade Renders that probably have Materials made buy other Artist. even with Stock Apps Pro Grade 3D Renders our more then a one man show.Video's takes even more. Poser,zBrush.One person can run them and produce Works.99% of the works our not Pro Grade.eve with materials made buy other Artist.
TS,LW,C4 thay keep adding more and more tools to them that makes them hard and harder to run.why ? All I need to model is a Polygon Cube,Polygon Draw,Add Edges,Wield,Hide Part of mesh,A Weighting system that would tell a single line to acked like it's 2 lines so it would sub dived like its a bevel of 2 lines.and a Subdivide system that Tri's don't matter.Can I get this from any App at any price ? not that I know of. But I can get splines,nurbs,hyperNurbs, meatballs.etc etc that I really have no use for.I don't need more tool to make my life harder I need fewer tools that's tools I need to make my life easier.
OK Kris post long Post see if I can
