Are there any options other than VRay that will render good quality outdoor scenes (sky, sun, water) from GH without baking? VRay is not a tool for new users! so many undisclosed concepts: The GH components DO NOT have control of the scene assets. While the GH components can render simple scenes d…

I would say for ArchViz the most studio will pick Vray or Corona. Vray has the most abundant Library outhere for ArchViz, as well as proxies to make your life easier. why dont u try Lumion? it is very well known realtime rendering software for architects and it is superfast. Twinmotion is also ver…

[image] wim: . I take it you haven’t used Grasshopper in Rhino inside Revit and know that that workflow doesn’t involve baking? correct. Everything in this category is a steep time consuimng learning curve. I posted this is GH because I wondered if there were other tools for GH that have bee…

Give Twinmotion in Rhino a try using their synch tool to link to a Rhino model. Or you can directly open a FBX model saved from Rhino as such. Lots of dramatic sun, sky, rain, fog stuff all in the can ready to just dial up. I can get looks that would be a lot of work in a ‘normal’ renderer. Here is …

FWIW you can use Raytraced (Cycles) to get pretty pictures out of V6 without baking.

I took a long look a that today but stopped short of installing their demo. (nice image BTW) The deal breaker was no real time link from GH. I really want to be able to adjust the model in GH and not go through endless delet and rebake cycles! Like this: [Mindesk for Rhino - Grasshopper …

[image] How to render/set tinted glass material in Grasshopper? Grasshopper Hey, You could get started by using a Rhino file that has the materials already predefined. Then you can have a list of names that you can use with the Custom Preview component. Attached an adapt…

I see. You mean using Rhino rendering. As far as I know, this is not accessible from GH. Wish it was. Im sure it would be good enough. Perhaps I missed it, but I dont think there is a way to assign, materials to a GH object wihtout baking it. Thas the central concept of Gh as far as I understand it. …

You need the GhShadeNodes for Cycles rendering inside Grasshopper: [image] Rhino Cycles, Grasshopper and Live Connections Rendering No EEVEE, incompatible license (GPL). The current way to do shaders is using Cycles XML material (available after TestShowPrivateContent), …

Hi - [image] Proterio: Perhaps I missed it, but I dont think there is a way to assign, materials to a GH object wihtout baking it. For things that are not too complex, you can reference materials that exist either as a rmtl file (e.g. in the Rhino materials library) or in your Rhino document…
