TAUNT ME WITH LIGHTWORKS PROBLEMS. I DARE YOU.

[Dwight]

In messaging with our colleague New Zealand's Paul King, he wondered how to do a plasma screen. I took it on as a challenge and made yet another discovery about LightWorks - it can't use the screen image that the plasma screen object calls. Attached is the workaround for that.

ArchiCAD TALK members are invited to taunt me with problems. The book is making excellent progress, but I have a few pages that need ideas - along the lines of the challenge I have included here.

Please post your issues. I am moving on to explaining stained glass, next. But you'll have to get the book for that one.

I have downloaded. Thank you.
I have not dared to think about it.
LW is very difficult with stupid manuall from Graphisoft.
To know the problems with LW will take time.

Let's make it clear that the kind of LightWorks problem I am prepared to solve will not involve fear counselling.

Niklewrinkle:

I can tell you that an active "discussion" occurs right now where the LightWorks team is attempting to discover the anti-aliasing implementation. A fix is coming, but in the meantime:

use " better" for the best edge definition and "best" for the best texture mapping smoothness.

I have also been told that to render at double size and reduce with Photoshop is the strategy right now...... sux.

PS: interesting room quality you have going on there. The vertical banding on the cupboard faces - try inceasing the number of lights and shado resolution in the windolite or whatever......

Here are two LightWorks problems for ya Dwighto. Art*Lantis R and Maxwell Render

Nobody will care about your LightWorks book when we get our upgrades to these programs.
