We'll do.

Yep - been using your separateOBJ program for assigning materials to my jewelry models when using HyperShot. Maybe that will become a "save-as" option?

The render above was saved directly out of the HyperShot "realtime" window. Took under 30 seconds for the render to complete after I stopped moving the object and the environmental HDR.

MoI + HyperShot under $400. Great, affordable combination. Both programs are new, so I expect even greater things to come in future revisions!

Note for potential users: HyperShot requires at least a dual core or multi-processor machine.

Hi Ed,

The Hypershot render looks really nice. I downloaded the demo of Hypershot but haven't installed it yet. Is the dual core cpu an absolute must? I don't mind waiting on renders :) The only thing that seems a bit limiting with Hypershot is the small render size on the $200 version.

You have also a very easy renderer as plugin inside the free Google Sketchup !

Here the object test of Steph without any regulate ! :) (30 seconds too)
Moi --> export format 3ds-->GoogleSketchup + Podium (free in 500*500 pixels images)

Hi Ed, it would be really cool to see more jewelry stuff that you do with MoI + HyperShot in the future, please post them if you get a chance!

Yup, for v2 it should get included more directly.

The speed is definitely one of the cooler parts for it. Also just general ease of use since you can get nice looking lighting with the HDR maps without any fuss.

Hi Mark, it seemed to work ok for me on a single core, but slower of course.
