Plz,can anyone tell me how i can make fast preview. Just to see how textures and light looks like. -I m archciad user so i export model as 3ds and import it to matador. I try to render one scene (room) I putt all defuse and put resolution 200/100 and after 20 min. its still noisy and its so small.

I see that many of u have powerfull computers. I have PIV 2.0 ghZ but at this mometnt i m buying new computer.

I was big fan of lightscape but that program is dead, maxwell produce beautifull images,very easy to use,full of bugs and very SLOW but i love it

Do u experts use some noise reduction program ? Thats stupid if i cant produce clear image in maxwell and if i m force to use some noise reduction tool.

Keep on good work, maxwell will rule and it will be fast if George Lucas give me his computer sistem.

Big hello from SArajevo, BiH

You can do previews as the others told you how, it works fine for that :) and you really don't have to have the super fastest and best computer in the world to create good looking images with Maxwell. Just alot of patience to wait for it to finish ;) my computer totally sucks for 3d and games and everything else but i still use it as it's all i have now, and i'm happy with my renderings (most of them..).

Noisereduction isn't necessary, as long as you're happy with your rendering then all is good. What others think about the amount of noise in it isn't really important. Atleast that's what i think about this. And what more is that some noise often makes the rendering much more realistic than a super clean crisp and sharp rendering as you can see many of the other avaiable renderengines produce, i won't mention their names.. hehe
