Light Tracer

Has anyone here been using Light Tracer as a rendering option?

I've been playing around with the v2.5 demo & wondered what would be the best format to export Moi3d models - .3dm files don't appear to work & most of the others have weird artifacting where surfaces join.
So far the smoothest seems to be .stl, but that turns everything into one object, so different textures can't be applied to various parts.

Light Tracer seems to be fairly simple & to the point - I'll definitely buy it if it can be friends with Moi3d ;)

Hi Brendan, does it work better if you use .obj format and set the option in MoI's mesh export dialog for "Output: Quads & Triangles" ?

Hi Brendan,
I'm using LightTracer 2.5 (registered) on an M1 MBP. I've had great results using both STEP and obj formats.
.3dm does not work for me either.

Thanks Dinos - yes the .obj format as Michael suggested seems to be working fine :)

I don't know if it goes for Light tracer, but in some render apps, if all objects are imported as 1 object, it is because the objects are all "unnamed". naming them imports them as separate objects.
