All Sketchup, All the Time

First of all, SkIndigo is the EXPORTER, not the RENDERER.
INDIGO is the renderer.
Then, that's the point of unbiased renders. I already rendered scenes for multiple days and I'm not the only one, here

14 hours for a final should be pretty much normal, with a reasonable CPU, a not too high resolution and about 50% direct and 50% indirect light without high-scattering SSS or cauchy_b, I'd say

If you don't like to spend that much time to render something, Indigo definitely isn't the correct renderer for you...

Welcome, again, to Indigo, now with a new point of view

TurboSketch Studio is biased rendering program. I did get much better renders in Indigo, but like all unbiased rendering program, takes time. The advantage of TurboSketch over Indigo is that it is so simple that even a 5 year old child can use it, but there is almost no options in TurboSketch, all is set by default even textures and images sizes and you can't use Indigo's options like SSS and other things.
(I had to reduce Indigo Render's image size to 35% so you can compare it because with actual image sizes it would be really stupid to compare.)(TurboSketch image is the original size. Model took from 3d warehouse). There are the renders:

If you want an easy to use biased renderer for SU, go with Podium. Turbosketch sucks balls to a degree that I find hard to understand. I bought it, tried it, tossed it. It's a total waste of money. Bad customer service, too.

Podium's Mac version is due soon. Until then, Boot Camp is your friend. For me, the Podium/Indigo combo satisfies all my rendering needs.

Check http://www.websitetoolbox.com/tool/post ... ght=stream. The render was made by Solo.[/url]

podium cracks my pc and no I don't want another rendering program I just prefer TurboSketch as biased program because I tried it and also tried Podium and IRender.

What do you mean, Podium "cracks" your pc?

ZYX · Post by **ZYX** » Sat Dec 08, 2007 2:42 am

Doesn't work properly on my pc

Weird. Never had any problems with it. You used the offcial version, I assume?

No answer? Hm. How strange.

This is even worse than comparing apples and oranges.
A monkey with broken hands could draw a more realistic looking robot dude than that.

No i think turbosketch image needs more contrast.
