Hello everybody! I can't remember how to modify the viewport / camera navigation behavior in order for it to work like Maya viewport does. In other words, by default Realsoft 3d viewport / camera shows the object going opposite the movement of the camera (which is correct of course). I want exactly the opposite, that is if I rotate around the object from left to right I want to see the object spinning from left to right too.
I hope I have been able to explain myself well! :-D Thank you in advance for your help!

I still have Realsoft 3D V5 and I was wondering if buying the license for version 7 could be worth? Thank you very much in advance!

Hi Robert, All good advice, nice to see the list is still alive :) I saw that you're using Global Illumination. A very difficult and complicated feature in RS3d ! The infamous Garry and me did some heavy testing, trying to optimize GI settings in RS... must be at least a decade ago. But computers in 2017 are dream machines compared to the noisy heavy monsters from those days. RS runs fine on a cheap multi-core 64-bit machine with 16 gigs of ram, so on such a machine we can crank up these settings: - increase Ray Count in the GI material: makes use of all the CPU cores, including hyperthreaded. The higher the better, unfortunately it's maxed out at 100 by a slider (v6) - decrease Blur Level and Blur Iterations in Post Image Effects. But beware: if it's too low, noise is introduced. - perhaps modify things like GI_blur_reflected, GI_brightness_control, blurwidth_control Or export the scene as .obj and render with other software. Good luck! Mark H Op 16-5-2017 om 19:29 schreef Robert den Broeder: Many thanks Jan! Will try! And of course I will post updates of my image to show my progress. Initially this started as a test if I could make the pen… now it should become more interesting than that ;- ) Best regards, Robert *Van:* User-list [mailto:[email protected] <[email protected]>] *Namens *Jan Schmitz *Verzonden:* dinsdag 16 mei 2017 18:22 *Aan:* [email protected] *Onderwerp:* Re: [User-list] i have a pen.. Hi Robert, in addition to Lees excellent mail, I'd like to give some further suggestions. I quickly pulled the image into photoshop and sketched the things that can be improved, to gain a more realistic and more appealing render. (Download the image and toggle between the to versions, to see the adjustments better). 1. Clean reflections: In product photography you usually don't want to see the whole room in the reflection, so you set up a bunch of grey to white gradients, that appear in the reflections. This helps us to instantly recognize the material as a chrome material. 2. The cap at the end of the pen doesn't seem to have a shader, it renders constant black. You'll need something there, that resembles plastic or rubber and gives some smooth reflections. (As Lee already said) 3. The camera is very telephoto, so you'd expect some depth of field. 4. The wood texture needs a lot more contrast. I hope this helps, the pen looks really nice!
