Sounds like a great update. Unfortunately, I keep getting an "image data corrupted" error every time I try to install it. This is for the Mac version. I downloaded it 3 times and keep getting the error when running the .dmg file.

Anyone else getting this?

I get the same, apparently the mac file is bad...

Download it again. There was a problem with one of the download mirrors, but it's fixed now.

Very much looking forward to working with it.

[gotoxy av-media]

Thanks, I downloaded it again and it's working now.

Are there some more images posted, i.e. Hair renderings?
I would love to see some more renderporn

Particles, too. What is the nature of them? Instanced geometry? Volumetric clouds? Blobby meshes?

All good here. Great to see the OSX version of Studio running so smoothly. No dialogue boxes hanging around any more.

One thing I am confused about though. Can I resume renders that were started in 2.5? I have only tried a couple and I got some odd results (might be complicated by the sky settings.

Sorry, you can't because changes are enormous in image handling, specially in AA and and as you say you get weird results. Same with merging mxi files, all of them must be generated with the same version.

Particles are shaded spheres?

The light bounce among them is very lovely.

Ah OK, thanks. Is it easy to run 2.5 along side 2.6? ... On OSX.

[juan]

yes, you can do that, just remember that if you save an mxs file with Studio 2.6 it would not be opened with previous versions.

They are usually spheres, but the system also allows to replace the sphere with any other geometry (although it depends on how each plugin exports particles.)

I took a 87mb model from sketchup that i was able to render prefectly in 2.5. I exported it again tried to render and now im on my 6th crash...not looking so good for 2.6.

Do you have displacement in the scene?

Is it possible to reduce the size of the spheres below .001 meters? I like the smoke effect in the documentation, but the smallest particles I seem to be able to get are still way to big at any kind of higher resolution.
