<p>We're up to Build 0082. This new major release of the AccuRender and nXt product line now includes a plugin that works entirely within AutoCAD just like previous versions. It's got a ton of new features and is available for free for a while. Take a look and let me know what you think.</p>
<p></p>
<p>See the Download->AccuRender Studio menu items for more details.</p>

<p>******</p>
<p>Some highlights:</p>
<p>Standalone renderer which accepts input from Rhino, Sketchup, Obj and FBX.</p>
<p>Plugins for AutoCAD and other CAD applications.</p>
<p>Online material and plant libs.</p>
<p>Single advanced engine with fewer compromises and biases. Similar to current hybrid engine but noisier.</p>
<p>*******</p>
<p>AccuRender Studio is 64 bit only and will not run on 32 bit machines.<br/> On older machines, the installation may require updating .net versions which can be a lengthy process. Windows 10 is recommended (but not required.)</p>
<p>The AutoCAD plugin can be run with or without a recent version of nXtRender loaded. <br/> If you run the plugin without nXtRender, you will get only AutoCAD information in the ArScene file. If nXtRender is loaded some conversion of nXt information will occur.</p>
<p>Instructions:</p>
<p>1. Download and install <a href="http://www.rhino3d.com/go/ArStudioSetup" target="_blank" rel="noopener">AccuRender Studio</a>.<br/> 2. Open an AutoCAD session.<br/> 3. Load the correct .net AccuRender Studio plugin for your version of AutoCAD by typing <em>netload</em> at the command prompt (not appload!) and navigating to</p>
<p> <em>c:\program files\AccuRender Studio. </em>The plugin versions are:</p>
<p></p>
<p> ArStudioAcadPluginR19.dll (AutoCAD 2013-2014)</p>
<p> ArStudioAcadPluginR20.dll (AutoCAD 2015-2016)<br/> ArStudioAcadPluginR21.dll (AutoCAD 2017)<br/> ArStudioAcadPluginR22.dll (AutoCAD 2018)</p>
<p><br/> You should only have to do this step once. The file will be demand loaded after that.</p>
<p>4. Optionally load nXtRender (by typing <em>nxt</em> at the command line, for example).<br/> 5. Type <em>arstudio </em>at the command line to run the command. It will inform you if the correct version of nXtRender was found. If not, an update from RenderPlus may be required.</p> Cloud renderingtag:accurender.ning.com,2016-03-11:6293855:Topic:1202122016-03-11T23:06:17.486ZRoy Hirshkowitzhttps://accurender.ning.com/profile/RoyHirshkowitz
<p>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.</p>
