>>>I find it a little misplaced from refractivesoftware to come do such dirty marketing on third party forums.>>>

There is one small difference here.... Philbo is a long time MoI user and forum participant.

He's been a respected contributor with valuable input. FYI.

Michael has not sought to limit posts like these in the past. Personally, I'm glad the posts related to these renderers come up. I don't have a lot of time to search for software like this. This forum is one of the few places I frequent. It is about balance and as Burr said, Philbo isn't just here to pitch product at us.

I found MoI thanks to some (lots!) of posts by Frenchy Pilou on the Kerkythea renderer forum. What goes around comes around.

Octane looks sweet. If only I had a Cuda card :(

That is no excuse and what's been said is pure speculation.

.

Yes it is hardly my or Refractive Software's intent to slam Arion or any other renderer. There is plenty of room in the market for both paid solutions and with open source solutions as well. I have removed my initial comment as it did not contribute to the intent of the thread.

Sincerely:

PhilBo

Hi PhilBo,

I do not feel harassed by your postings.
Also, I am sure that Michael has an eye on his forum.

Hi Phil, thanks for simmering down the thread.

Now that you are associated closely with one particular rendering program, you'll probably find your online comments to be interpreted somewhat differently in some situations than they were previously... It will probably be a bit of an adjustment to get used to that. :)

Thank you very much Philbo.
