Re: 3D printing?

Well actually yes. It was quite accurate for the small size we needed. And got really close even with small features. Insets with 0.5 mm and so on. But my print was a Product prototype one in gold one in silver finish and the model was basically just a cube one side open, one hole at the bottom and ...

Re: emPolygonizer 3

Another must have release

Multithreading and Meshing the different Phase Id´s is already worth the update.
And all the rest is a big bonus.

No cloning to new clouds anymore ^:)^

Well done Eric

Re: progressive rendering in xsi2012, still not there?

For the material I could get only simple lambert to work.
No reflection or refraction.
For Iray? You have to use the mia_material. No problems here to get reflection working.

Re: Work-Around to Problems with Tablets and Softimage

Saw that today morning and did it straight away.
Works very nice and finally no need to take my mouse again for simulation tasks or orbiting while simulating.

Only thing is that the new stop button in SI2012 lost its "feature" position. :))

Re: Architectural material anisoptropy issue 7.01 -> 2011.5

Just made a quick test with the same results. SI 2011.5 64bit

With the old Anisotropic shader no problem.

But no way to get the same effect with the Arch mat.

Confirmed ;)
