you could actually work entirely from inside the primary 3D program and not having to go through a totally different program to render out a simple scene.

i see what you mean, i'm on the "hope to get a fully working plugin as soon as possible" side as well. you know, this studio vs plugins stuff is one of the hottest topic of conversation around here, either you love it or hate it.

Or you fail to see the need for the polemic

there is a nice maxwell material converter tool

oops u're using C4d .....

thanks ludi, but unfortunately this is only for the max users.

and if a user of maxwell is able to write such a tool,
why doesn´t NL write such tools for the "working" plugins,
instead of wasting time and our patience creating new non-working plugins ?

sorry, but i also would rather have a plugin including the material editor instead of switching over to the studio, reorganize my whole scene, and reapply all materials.

and that within a program that is so slow that i am not able to rotate my scenes in viewport. (architects mostly have bigger scenes than 2 rings or a shoe or something like that...)

it costs so much time reorganizing my scenes into groups, editing the materials, reapplying... for a scene with around 5000 objects and 5.000.000 polygons.

i´d say, please first make all released plugins working AND on same level,
then call it a release candidate, and THEN finally think about creating new plugins.

i mean, who needs a plugin for nemetschek or vectorworks?

think they should concentrate first on the most used 3D Apps.

for the ones who don´t own a reaql 3d app, ok, the studio is great.

cheers,
Ingo

sure, that's a good one. or you want your plugin badly, but still you know it takes a working studio to have the plugins done.
