Calatrava Olympic Velodrome Roof: HDRI Render in Cheetah3D

[arquimoncho]

pero en que formato tu exportas de sketchup a cheetah?

[timdanaher]

Normalmente o .FBX o .3ds

[arquimoncho]

por el hecho de que la opcion de smart folder en cheetah es muy util y yo que poseeo max pues me gustaria poder trabajar asi en paralelo con sketchup y 3ds max

[timdanaher]

¿Sabes que Cheetah corre sólo en Mac, no?

Claro que podrías exportar desde Max en un Smart folder de Cheetah -- el Smart folder contiene sólo una ficha de .FBX o .3ds o .dxf o .obj o... a Cheetah no le importa cual programa la genera.

Pero sí, nececitas un Mac.

[arquimoncho]

exist something like "smart folder" in 3ds max?

[timdanaher]

No sé. ¿Porqué me preguntas?

[enzomat]

for you interesting you must write :

l ho fatto solo per scherzo

i make it for joke ;)

anyway good for you to speak italian :p

[enzomat]

have you worked for calatrava? :D

now there is in release v-ray version for sketchup soooo goood ;)

[timdanaher]

No....l'ho fatto solo da scherzo (does that make any sense?). I'm on a Mac, so V-Ray's not an option. But who cares when I've got Cheetah?

Kerkythea has also been released for the Mac...interesting.

[huyvucccp]

only for MAC .... :(

[timdanaher]

Well, you could always get yourself a dual-core Mac Mini for $400...and run an XP partition on it at the same time...;0)

[huyvucccp]

thanks,

Cheetah can work with SketchUp ?

[timdanaher]

Yes, via something called a 'Smart Folder' in Cheetah - a 'pipeline' between the two progs. Change the geometry in SketchUp -- the model automatically updates in Cheetah without having to re-import it. We may see native SketchUp import soon, too.

bravo santiago

[holcerkrk]

Thank you. I'll try Kerkythea.

[huyvucccp]

Kerkythea can export animation like this ?

[holcerkrk]

Nice rendering.

[timdanaher]

Thanks,

Not bad for a program that costs $129, eh?

[holcerkrk]

Wow. But that program is only for Mac? I can't find any program like Cheetah3D for Windows.

[timdanaher]

Have you tried Kerkythea? I've not used it myself, but it has quite a following, does HDRI, is windows-only....and it's free!

(Doubt if it could be as easy to use as Cheetah, though ;0)
