Thanks a lot. The support for big meshes is very good news!

I intend to try it as soon as I get a chance. I've got a few scenes that will like it very much.

Great Smartden. Already tried a little bit, and it seems to work like a charm.

Tell me, SmartDen, building on the recent discussion in the request forum about MPD, and since Blendigo "understands" Blender modifiers, would it be possible to use the "render" subdivision setting in the subsurf modifier instead of the "display" setting as now?
I'm just thinking about this for displacement reason since Blendigo now supports big meshes but Blender can struggle when it goes into million-poly territory. This would allow for much cleaner displacement.

Blendigo has always accepted only render subdiv level. in 1.0.5b i have changed mesh handlig and didn't run any tests for it

Really!? Mmmmh. Got to check this.

Damn you're right!!! What an idiot. I've been agonizing over this and the solution was there the whole time. Please disregard everything I've ever written on this forum. I'm off to tear off my cloths and bury myself in ashes for the next 40 days.

@SmartDen

Thanx for this great update mate! It works great and I really love
how you did implement the region rendering dude!

btw. is there a way to disable Region rendering without the need
to go under "Render" and press Border? If not, could you duplicate
the 'border button' into blendigo for better integration?

And another thing I wanna say is, that for some people it might be
good to know, that it is highly recommend to use camera/linear tone
mapping if you do region rendering. Because of the way Reinhard
works you can put the image directly to /dev/null if used.

@BbB *LOOOOOOL* ;o))

take care
psor
