Re: Where is advanced render setup

Hello, PRSS! :D Welcome! This was, for now, not included, as tweaking advanced render settings confuses most users. :? The Easy settings were designed to cover most bases for most cases. If one of them is not working for your particular scene, then you would naturally move up to the next highest qua...

Soft Shadows in Clay Render Settings

from this post at SketchUcation forum Fletch, the file comments under the images I posted show the presets (I used the highest, I thought). Don't change anything on my account: I don't have a clue what I'm doing. Just wondering if I'm gonna get something better once I learn what to do...so thought i...

Re: Material and light settings.

Hi, Is it possible to find an explanation of the settings for shine etc for materials? I know I may sound like a doofus but, it is something that will will materially effect the ability to render effectively. It may also make those totally new to rendering feel less of a doofus, like I do. Thanks. ...

Material and light settings.

In Twilight you will not have to create any material from scratch. Apply any material you like from your normal SketchUp material palette. Then, click the material tool, and click on the material you want to be "shiny" and apply a material template to that material by choosing it from the ...

Re: Animating Face me components and shadow

Hi Pixero!
Sadly, this is, at least according to my understanding, an openGL SketchUp visual "trick" and not, therefore something that will be possible at the moment in Twilight... but we will take a look and see what can be done. ;)

Controlling AA (Anti-Aliasing)

AA (Anti-aliasing) is built into all "Easy" settings (except for "Prelim"). It varies per quality per setting. So if you need better AA, simply "up" the quality a step. If you are doing a test render with "Low", and are happy with everything except AA, choosin...
