Thanks. There is another way around this but again it's time consuming and that is to completely shut down the computer between each scene being rendered, restart and render the next scene. Do you think this issue will be resolved in a later version of indigo so that we do not have to change setting...

Hi, I've found the file but it wont allow me to edit it?

Hi OnoSendai, thanks for your reply. How/where do I make this change? What is the infifile.xml? Thanks.

There is still an issue with rendering large scenes with GPU (open CL) ticked. When these scenes are rendered the screen remains black and nothing happens. The solution is rendering large scenes with indigo version 4.0.64 which seems to work fine for these scenes but the scenes render slower than th...

I had a similar issue last week but I downloaded the latest indigo update and this has solved the problem. Also if you untick 'enable Open CL rendering' this also fixes the issue (on previous indigo releases)

Hi Zom-B thanks for your reply. This was a strange issue but I managed to resolve it by copying the 3D model and pasting it into a fresh sketchup file and the shadows rendered properly. I am still not sure what the problem was with the original sketchup file!

Hi guys Hoping you can help. When I render with skindigo the shadows are not showing true to what is shown in the sketchup model. Any ideas what is going on here? I've attached two images, the original sketchup image which shows the correct shadows and also the rendered indigo image where the shadow...

Hey guys, Been using skindigo for a few years now but I'm always learning something new every week... still striving for perfection! :-) I've attached some of my latest architectural renders for anybody to critique.... Any tips on how to improve them would be much appreciated! FYI For lighting I use...

Interesting it takes so long with such a powerful machine. I use sketchup and the sketchup model files themselves are normally around 50mb in size. Scenes are normally lit with a hdri. Once the render time hits 8 minutes the image is smooth. Leaving it for 16 minutes won't improve the image quality....

Thanks Bosseye, appreciate your feedback. 48-72 hours is a hell of alot! Even with the most complex scenes I've worked on takes a maximum of one hour. All externals take 8 minutes max it's just some of the interiors with 6ish light layers can take an hour to render properly. But thanks for establish...

Hi Guys, Hopefully some of you can give me your insight. I have been using indigo on my home PC for two years and am now looking into buying a laptop so I can use indigo on the move - for example if I go on holiday or head over to another part of the country for a few weeks at a time. My PC spec is:...

Hey guys,
Here's my final entry.... Skindigo, 8 hours rendering time, no post work in photoshop. Some really sweet renders done by you guys! VERY inspiring!!! Good luck everyone!
Best,
Noel

Thanks ctzn, I reduced the resolution massively in photoshop for the purpose of getting some feedback. The real file is 5mb and everything is sharper. Glad you like it, cheers!

Cheers Pibuz!
I'll admit I'm a bit of a rookie when it comes to bump maps, I know of them and I know where the tutorial is but haven't gotten around to learning the technique yet :S
All the best

Hi Pibuz, Thanks for your quick reply and comments. The good thing about having the bed near the bar is you can fall into it if the drinking gets heavy.... I'll have a look at these links now - cheers! Could you give me a little more info on your following comment: "Also, I think you should work a l...
