Thanks pafurijaz for the info about Indigorender.
Interesting product...but actually 595 USD are not few...

Again...installed...got a quick tour...removed :)

Its UI and UX is very close to Arion stand-alone...too bad UX for my liking.

I'm waiting for official release of Blender 2.8 too, although I must admit that recently I'm not more a big fun of all these "PBR-pseudo-gaming engines"...
But EEVEE show great potential.
I'm really curious to see which rendering features it have to offer us.
We'll see...

Seems you have forgotten 3 big famillies of renderers! ;)

- The easy speedy renders online like SktechFab (free if you use it as not privated) https://sketchfab.com

- The easy ergonomic (but not economic :) Lumion & TwinMotion https://lumion.com https://twinmotion.abvent.com

- And the 2 megas monsters (free) Unreal & Unity https://www.unrealengine.com/en-US/what-is-unreal-engine-4 https://unity3d.com/fr

PS Mamouset & Octane https://marmoset.co/toolbag/ https://home.otoy.com/render/octane-render/

But my favorite is SimLab Composer (free in Lite version maxi 1920 *1080 Real Time) maybe because I have made the French site! :) https://simlabfr.weebly.com/light.html you can load quasi all 3D formats existing and mix them !
a Moi model :)

and the little last free one who is very funny to use! (new version since few days!



Pseudo fractal with some tricky shaders! ;) https://github.com/kchapelier/pseudofractals-voxel-shader
The funny is that is made in 10 secondes! Astonishing! The Fish eyes is terrific! (Stereographic Projection)


Few cubes of red lights!


The incredible of this : that is only "Voxels" so cubic cubes!!! This MagicaVoxel is a true gem! And what ergonomy!

Maybe LuxCoreRender, for Blender is also interesting.

Luxcore is very good alternative and now very fast..

Hi Pilou!

Your MagicaVoxel models and renderings are really cool!!
Really impressive.

Put them all together into a specific portfolio :)

Oh man...what the hell...

I spent almost 1 hour trying to install all Luxorender's stuff (stand alone, Blender plugins, loading example scene...)
No way!.

Read the Wiki page...no way.
Installed the support Visual c++ libraries (on my WIndows 10 64 Bit Pro) and so on...

Ok. I gave it a try and it has wasted enough of my time today :)

I got rid of it. It's a pain... (at least for me)

I stick with Cycle's Blender and my 1.5 Version of Thea (for the moment)

Thanks anyway for suggestions.

Ciao :)

This or else?
