Does Indigo render the current view?

Post by kel65 » Sun Dec 04, 2011 10:51 pm

Hey guys,
Does Indigo render the current view or does it take in to account (calculate) the whole model?
Thanks!

Whole exported model is taken into account: exported geometry is non-hidden geometry, so if you have large meshes behind the camera they're exported too, unless you hide them first.

So, by hiding geometry not in the camera frame will speed up the render process, yes?

In general, removing objects and/or materials from the scene will enhance performances. In the other hand, removing and adding objects during an animation based on the camera field of view may change the scene illumination abruptely.
