I have blender here as well, but it's completely Alien to me!! :?
C4D is so much easier to use. I wish I could get the 4 view mode of C4D in blender, and file open dialog in blender is aggravating

I admit blender exporter is probbaly better developed right now...
the thing with the Blender UI is that its completely customizable, so you can get your 4 view mode and switch back and forth between fullscreen. i find it much easier and faster to use than the C4D UI but to each their own.

hey - that's not fair - fused is doing a great job with his exporter (yes, one person).

quick comparo between Maxwell and Indigo - both just over 30mins

first Indigo and then Maxwell, even fiddling around with the tone mapping, I still can't get em in close to each other

hum...
Maxwell seems to use an entirely different sky-model:
it starts again, on the bottom.
I wonder, if that's why, it's that much brighter.
You maybe should add a big plane, beyond the cube, to get rid of light, comming from the sky part beyond the horizon.

re: the sky model,
The original sky model is only defined on the upper hemisphere.
I continue the sky model downwards with the horizon colour; in this Maxwell image, it looks like the sky is mirrored into the lower hemisphere.
