I'm moving an old Acad2004 with AR4 installation over to a new computer. I opened an old rendering on the new computer and noticed most of the AccuStudio materials were missing in the Materials…Continue

I use AccuRender nXt alongside AutoCAD 2011. I just read an email from RenderPlus that talked about a Tileable Texture Wizard now available in that incarnation of AccuRender. Is that Wizard…Continue

There's an nXt (for AutoCAD 2011) add-on for manipulating background images called Image Wizard (or Image Layer Manager depending on where you look in the nXt User Manual). I can't find a way to…Continue

"Thanks, Al. I checked and I didn't copy the old folder over and path it. Got it now."
Albert D Hart replied to Steve Wojtynek's discussion Old AccuStudio Libraries Available?
"We don't have any installations for AR4 or distributions for the AccuStudio libraries.
We don't think McNeel has anything either.
Do you have the old libraries on backup or on the old machine?"

Old AccuStudio Libraries Available?
I'm moving an old Acad2004 with AR4 installation over to a new computer. I opened an old rendering on the new computer and noticed most of the AccuStudio materials were missing in the Materials tab... so I'm guessing I need to reinstall all that stuff. I remember being able to download material and plant libraries from the old AccuStudio website. I looked there and it appears the "old stuff" has all been converted to the current format. Anybody know where I can get the old format AccuStudio…See More

"We are creating a version which will work inside of nXtRender for AutoCAD.
We hope to have it ready for testing in the next two weeks
We'll post a message here when it is ready "

Steve Wojtynek replied to Steve Wojtynek's discussion Image Wizard Access
"I checked and I was able to call up a little toolbar by typing NXTB in the command line. One icon does launch the Image Wizard, the other is for Render Ready Components. Nothing for the Layer Schemes on that toolbar, and the toolbar…"

"Perfect, Rich! I look forward to it.
Steve"
Rich Hart replied to Steve Wojtynek's discussion Image Wizard Access
"We used to have a command NXTB which loaded a toolbar which had a button for the Image Wizard. It appears to have stopped working.
We will fix that in the next version we post, and add another way to get to it w/o having to load anything else."

Image Wizard Access
There's an nXt (for AutoCAD 2011) add-on for manipulating background images called Image Wizard (or Image Layer Manager depending on where you look in the nXt User Manual). I can't find a way to access it without having to use "The Ribbon" in AutoCAD, which has an icon to access it. To get at it using "Classic AutoCAD" techniques...I first load AR5 (nXt) and then go the Materials menu page os the Palette at the right side of my screen.I then open the Layer Schemes routine via the icon just…See More
Steve Wojtynek replied to Albert D Hart's discussion Fractal Trees vs Images for trees
"Sounds like good method... something I need to look into as I've never used tree images.
Assuming I want to continue working the old way using only fractal trees... Does AutoCAD and AccuRender take time to calculate trees hidden by buildings…"
Steve Wojtynek replied to Albert D Hart's discussion Problem with download and Norton
"I was able to add the download file names to a list in Norton Internet Security to tell it to ignore them when checking downloads. Apparently, most Norton programs will allow you to manually add "safe" download filenames to a list."
Steve Wojtynek replied to Edward Poland's discussion Accurender nxt Manual
"Since I'm in the process of catching up with what's new in the AccuRender world, I happened to wander into the old AccuStudio website yesterday... looking to see if I could download the latest version of CoMotion for my AR4…"

"Path is OK. Peter Milner has done some stunning results using hybrid engine, though it requires really long rendering times for noise clear images. For his job he has got super powered rendering cluster with n² cores and lots of GB of RAM. The…"
Bryan commented on Bryan's photoD1
"George, this is the path tracer engine. Do you have another recommendation? I am still figuring out materials. I will note that for future renders."
George Ioannidis commented on Bryan's photoD1
"Is this done with hybrid render engine or the basic one?Comment not about rendering: Stone material is visibly repeating and I thing also out of scale (too big). Looks more like wallpaper, as there are windows and the wall is too thin to be made of…"
Roy Hirshkowitz replied to Peter Milner's discussion obj files"Hmmm... I'll take a look at this in nXt for AutoCAD when I get a chance.. it should work.
I doubt if the specular maps will work-- I don't think the textured meshes use standard materials. You are reminding me of why I need to…"
George Ioannidis replied to Peter Milner's discussion obj files"Peter, I was able to ad all specular and bump maps in Blender right, but for some reason nXt isn't recognizing it at all. The only texture it passes through is the main diffuse map.I am thinking of modifying the basic material (with only…"
Peter Milner replied to Peter Milner's discussion obj files"Roy, all I get from yours is a blue statue. However, George's works perfectly.
Another question - is it possible to use the specular maps to change the properties of the different materials e.g. shiny shoes?"
