Could Bongo use Keyshot as a renderer?

I’ll appreciate a quick answer Thank you.

Thanks for the answer Luc, I’m familiar with KeyShot’s plug-in but I wasn’t sure Keyshot can be used to render each frame automatically… can Bongo use any renderer that rhino uses?

Thanks again

Roy.

The rendering of KeyShot happens outside Rhino and is launched with a special “Render” command. Bongo cannot be used to render an animation. Unfortunately.

So I’ve suspected… not so good… Thanks Luc.

I use Keyshot 5 but haven’t upgraded to V6 yet. V6 has scripting options, perhaps the two could be utilised in V6?

Possibly sending each frame to the queue

Keyshot 7 coming up soon (maybe march 17?) and it will support FBX import to bring in an animated scene to render: https://www.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DaXUrmGO1188&usg=AFQjCNHWU0qQcprkk39q-BTr3FTKfx6v6Q&sig2=G19mA1AIqrpIQvULsHnXsA

It would be good to know if/when Bongo will have FBX export.

Thx,
