...Yeah have found + fixed this bug, will make new build soon.
Good afternoon, would it be possible to have news of the new beta that fixes the Bug ?
If so I can do some non-regression testing and then say if it has fixed

Thank you very much
Antonio

Does this even get tested? When I check "enable gpu rendering", my entire scene vanishes. Needs to get properly qa tested before being put out.

More than two months ago (4 Oct), Ono stated that this Bug was found and fixed. The problem is that the FIX has not been made public.

100% true. If there is fines or money back guarantee in case of stopping development they won't do this .. that's why Chaosgroup are professional and the first company in rendering, they never stops, with this attitude indigo will die for sure.

I don't know whom you may be targeting at, but what do you want? Despite having a great product Indigo never got the amount of users it needed to actually be competitive with all the others renderers, never understood why but that's how it is. How do you think Indigo can have all that amount of features needed without the needed influx of users? You compare Glare with Chaos? You are for real, do understand the massive scale difference between Chaos and Glare...

Regarding your statement about the comparison between Chaos and Glare, You can check the thea team, I think it's the same scale like Glare, but their renderer is more advanced and compatible with Sketchup more then Vray even.
In my opinion Indigo is Fantastic but not many users will be interested because it's not fully integrated with other third party plugins, I'm talking here about Indigo for Sketchup as it's the main 3d app for either modeling or visualization especially in the Archviz industry, You can try thea and see how it's fully integrated with Laubwerk, Skatter and has interactive rendering inside Sketchup same like Indigo for Cinema 4d, Thea render was my main tool and I produce such a good results with it, When I decided to purchase it as a permenant license I found that they changed the permanent license to subscription based system Which conflict with my workflow as I'm not using any autodesk product because of that reason, at that time I didn't know anything about Indigo or even try it, so I start to search for permanent based license that give a good results with Sketchup, I sent an email to the head of Glare and he was generous to give me a promotion to shift from my past renderer .. I recieved few updates for indigo then the big disappear happened, they made me regret to pay for this renderer.

Agreed, but Thea render is the black horse for sketchup till now, Indigo needs two things to have many users, the compatability with the critical plugins like Skatter and Laubwerk, and to have interactive rendering inside the app and also the Material editor for indigo plugin needs some improvements and to fix some bugs occured from time to time.

I seriously don't know what Indigo needs, because it got speed, features, simplicity, it was ahead of the curve in many regards but it never got the love it deserved. I remember having also bought octane back when it was on 1.53 but it never got the quality Indigo yet, look where it is now... You talk about plugins integration being the problem? Well Indigo is pretty much integrated in Cinema 4D yet, once again, it doesn't seem to have acquired much traction either. It's quite sad as it remembers me a lot with Commodore Amiga, a machine who was ahead of its time and yet it failed to be on its rightful place.

Merry Christmas

From my opinion it needs basic things that I suffered myself to know how this renderer work, the detailed tutorials from beginner to advanced levels, many things needs to be clear and simple so the user won't suffer to dicover the basic things or even the advanced ones, for Lumion D5 or even Vray you will find many complete tutorials from start to finish with a hyper quality in the archviz industry which I couldn't find for Indigo, they need to spend some money on campaigns and some conferences, Chaos group came to dubai 2018 as I remebered and they make a free seminar and they gave free licenses for some attendants, but behind these conferences they boost ads and made marketing for their softawre, don't expect from people to hurry to the software without big ad campaigns ... Kind Regards!

Indigo never got tutorials because it didn't got traction, didn't got traction couldn't go big, couldn't go big, couldn't do tutorials in the house and had to rely on users, and so on and so forth... Although you got a steady influx of features and quality. It's a sad state of affairs
