i use the internal lightworks rendering engine for rendering (because i don't have altantic, or 3ds max right now)

what is the best setting for the rendering to be a little bit real?

If you are rendering in LightWorks, this is your bible.

Hi all,
I would like to extend this question and ask Dwight. There are cases when you have done some succsessful renderings in the past and now want to get same rendering result in new file. What is the best way to go?
Should I just import (replace) attributes (materials) from older file and copy rendering settings (manually?). Will the older versions materials work the same way under AC12? Thanks

Lighting changed since version 9.

Better shaders can be made since version 10.

My opinion is that every rendering is unique.
