just curious.....it appears the Cinema4 rendering process takes soooo much longer than the old "Lightworks" process.

Have any others noticed this?

Bricklyne your renders look awesome! Would you be willing to share any of your secrets? Are you using the standard or physical engine with manual settings or are you using the default scenes?

During the beta testing I found that I preferred the physical engine over the standard because of the camera style settings (being a bit of an amateur photog). Most of my renders were test though so I haven't cracked the nut on a real project, so to speak.

Quite impressive!
I too would be very interested in some simple steps to get further along with understanding your basic setups.
