Hello,

is free for mac and PC users, quite easy to use but Vray for sketchup is great and fast

never tryied Keyshot, but you will have to pay for it

thanks, I know about vray, but this software not so simple to learn and use :frowning:
I’m 46 years, & and in this age I prefer to learn something more simple, because I choose SU to use, this is great program, because its very simple & meets many needs.

I forget, I mean real time rendering software, like enscape.
twilight how I know real time rendering, about keyshot I dont know. who knows please write, or maybe another software

Hi Katilina.

Hi think it depends on the results you are after but I wouldn’t dismiss VRay on the basis it isn’t simple to learn. I am 62 and I found it fairly straightforward to learn this year after watching a few tutorial videos plus it now comes with some great extras including realistic models of furniture, people etc that make your renders look great. You can try it free for a month if you decide to give it a go.

Best of luck.

by the way - I wish I was 46 again :grinning: :+1:

for real time rendering your machine has to be powerfull
I don’t think TW Render is a real time render soft,
Blender as 3dmax are quite hard for beginners

Sim Lab Composer, why not?

Consider Thea Render (https://www.thearender.com/) it is fast, very powerful and extremely easy to use.

The interface is very simple and it feature interactive rendering in the viewport which is close to real-time rendering.

every renderer/raytracer needs a powerful system, depending on rendering with the CPU and/or GPU.

Twinmotion is somewhat similar to Enscape, and has a Mac version.

True … and with his computer spec without a powerful discrete GPU, real time rendering software will struggle to run smoothly.

When comparable, speed does matter, I guess…
