advanced rendering for AutoCAD
Cloud rendering
In case you're interested in what I'm working on right now. This is a new engine running on the Microsoft Azure cloud. Took two hours using a total of 64 cores. (8 x 8-core machines). Costs about $11.00.

What kind of problem do you see?
Does it simply not load?
Try using these appload instructions to see if you see any errors that occur when you try to load nXtRender.
Please use the following procedure:
1. Type _appload at the command line.
2. Navigate to the folder where nXtRender was installed. This is normally C:\Program Files\AccuRender nXt.
3. Select one of the following files depending on your platform and your machine type (32 or 64 bit):
AccuRender nXt_21_.arx -OR- AccuRender nXt_21_64.arx (AutoCAD 2017)
4. Press Load
Check the AutoCAD command line to verify that the application loaded without error.
If you see any error messages, please send them to me.
At this point you should be able to type nxt or ar5 to launch the application.

OK, i am lost... Some one explain to me how to run NXT on the cloud. I set up my renderings over the weekend and then have to pray when i come in on Monday they are done. I am totally willing to pay a few $$ to not have to do that kind of risk...does Autodesk 360 render work with NXT maps and objects?

Yep. In a variety of development forms. I'll be showing some previews of new stuff soon.

Is cloud rendering still in development? It's the one major feature still not present in nXt.

It's in the new stuff, right now using a Microsoft service called Azure Batch. You'll need your own Azure Batch account to make it work, which is a bit cumbersome, but it seems to work nicely.

"Yes. We used to hide a little soft toy bear called Fret in our sets back in the day when we used photography. We then created a 3D version of Fret and included him in many of our renders.
If you have a look at the images in my Ambus 2014 album, you…"

"Do you ever hide stuff in your scenes? I used to have my dog Joey in EVERY render. Sometimes an icon on a monitor or in a window reflection, or book cover."

"Thanks George. I've had to produce quite a lot of lifestyle images in a short space of time. It's challenging coming up with so many different settings and layouts."
