Artlantis ..or LW AC 9

[Anonymous]

In my opinion Artl. is very good for interior (LW is too dificult to check the light)

For exterior LW with AC is absolutly better than artl.

What is your opinion?
Please help me.
Now I am considering to buy Artl or not...(in Germany bargainsale for 100 € for AC9 buyer)

Those who know cannot...
I guess I'm lip-reading, but I have a feeling the texture mapping thing will be fixed. Thanks!

And as Stefan says, the interactivity of Artlantis (I refuse to write that silly * ) is extremely useful in creating a good image, especially if you don't know the parameters by heart. If the mapping issue is fixed, I will certainly start using it again. Not knowing how much work it was, Gérard's image example is very good.

That is a very good point. You get the same advantage if you have a dual-processor machine. Export your model from AC, to ARtlantis, start your rendering, and go on working in AC as you like it while Artlantis renders.

I just hope Abvent gets it right at once this time. Too many times they've disappointed me. Remember Space Edit? (It was an ancestor, it has traces in Zoom, still)
