I'm working on this model in Blender, and use Twilight to Render with it in SketchUP.

There are a lot of problems with the imported mesh, so it must be fixed before I work more on the lighting/scene.

Looking good - maybe Twilight needs to be able to run as a stand alone renderer. Then you could render models from other modeling software independently. :gj:

A smile maker Fletch. Thanks for posting that. Not sure how licensing would work but being able to run Twilight independently of Sketchup would make it available to folk with memory issues.

Re licensing, would this then make it worthwhile making exporters for other software titles?

I used a render program call Renditioner some years ago, it is still going but they dropped the whole thing because it was NOT a financially viable model at the time.

Is it not Kerkythea that is the engine powering Twilight?

Twilight Render has a hundred features that are 'solved' that are 'broken' in Kerkthea or non-existent. Not least of which is denoise AI and automatic material templates, camera matching, phsyical sky with sun position controlled by SketchUp's sun overlay feature.

Yes, Twilight has made some great improvements. Again, it would be interesting if you could do renders like your first post in this thread as a stand alone rather than depending on SketchUp. Your character (again, first post in this thread) looks really good and is very well done. :clap:

One can only dream about some of the neat things that could be accomplished with a tool that produces quality results like Twilight produces. :rtfm:
