Is the latest version of kray compatible with LW 11.6? Please dont laugh

Thanks for all your suggestion. the funny thing was, i thought when i used the uncached option (since it is set to higher quality) i wont get noise....but it came out more noise than "high" setting option.

will give a go on all your suggestion.

@thomas,

wow, just saw your carpaint node explanation.....EPIC....will try that.

@Januz,

sorry didnt know why it post twice. Thanks mate, i need to brush up my nodal skill from now on.

help setup a black glossy metal in nodes. thanks for exterior shot

can someone help me setup a node material like the black glossy vase to assign to my black part bugatti car as shown in my attachement. thanks. (tricky part, i guess, its exterior shot. but reality wise, there are pure black in high gloss out there}

how do i get rid of the noise.
my scene has a lot of lumi polys. kray setting QMC (HIGH) without changing anything. resolution 2400x1200. using dpsunsky plugin as environment. post process in photoshop, reduce image size to be able to attached here. thanks

Hi Janusz, Maybe you're right, but in my experience even getting decent subsurface scattering results in Lightwave takes so much time and tweaking to get basic results that it becomes too difficult - especially in today's marketplace for 3D software. For the record, I'm trying to get to grips with ...

Thanks guys. Still a lot more to learn to become kray master. Im getting more and more comfotable using kray.

@lightwave3d, do you have a suggestion of the best hdri in the marke?

that's cool bro.. i wish i can do that kind of landscaping.. i love the creepers on the wall.. :mrgreen: thanks Azman, it is just instancing. by the way, my colleague here had a brother that have help out working with you on the mosque animation (great animation btw). im currently working in malays...

im not an expert kray user but client are happy.

that is what im getting too. anyway, it doesnt seem to have any difference than 2.51 or 2.56 when i test it with my old test model, i feel it is slower. but only few second slower though. thanks anyway for the update but really not happy with it.

just installed the said 2.57 on my lightwave 11.5.1.

when i run kray, the top info has kray 2.2 (1224 lsc)


my previous kray is 2.51 (1223 lsc)

im confused now. anyway i just reinstalled my previous 2.51. i will just wait for 3

Latest set up for interior? You better wait for KRAY 3.

hello Janusz,

thanks for your reply. i basically tried all of what you suggested before i post this test image. im using nodes on the material. i dont like the result when i make the sun to .5 that is why i set it as default 1. my material has 70% on brightness. still no luck of getting it correct.

hello guys, i have a box and a plane with the same texture material. i just want to get a distinction between the material A and B. how do i do that? i have lower the sun power but my material doesnt look like the correct color anymore. so i leave the sun power. i want to get rid of the burned area ...
