Cool. Congratulations. Look forward to trying this version out. The RT looks interesting as well - might come in handy when I upgrade my computer. As for 'regular' Indigo - I can turn the GPU support off, right? I got a cr*p gpu.

What's the difference between Normal Indigo and Indigo RT?

In the 3.0 video the camera movement is done with the mouse over the render preview window, but in the trial the controls for that are in the top-right window border. Is there a setting to change it how it is in the video? If not, I recommend making it that way because the current implementation doesn't allow focus of rotation on a certain area within the render preview, and it's a little - how to say - 'clumsy' (for lack of a better term).

I'm also not seeing a speed improvement when switching to CUDA on my nVidia GTS 8800M, but that may be because it's just too old a GPU and doesn't improve performance over the (also old) CPU.

I like what I see though.

I copy StompinTom on the difference. Is RT like a light version?

Also, I couldn't find the restrictions on the demo.

Great work.

Seem like RT is a "light" version of Indigo. So nothing interesting to us lifetime-customers.

I'm French and I use the Google translation.

I find it extremely Indigo 3.0 space in RAM. Indeed, for a very simple scene (wooden table with mirror, floor mirror without) the memory usage climbs up to 800 MB Is this normal?!

Sorry if you feel the sentence inconsistent ...

Good day!

The processor speed of my graphics card is 850 MHz ... ? why 0?
The memory is 1GB

One thing that may be a bug -- mesh subdivision seems to take more memory -- caused my PC to fill up its 9 GB of RAM (i7, WIndows 7, 64 bit), when subdividing meshes that only took 5 GB with Indigo 2.
