Hi grahamdesign

I have played around with Hypershot and personally, I think it is a "love it or hate it" type.

For use with a product, where a nice render of the product on a simplified background is required with no need for a degree in lighting is needed, then yes, very nice. But for a "all-round" renderer, in which I mean I could also have my landscape scenes rendered, then no, I would want/need far more control over the environment lighting.

I have found some of the renders I made while testing, so have attached one where I was testing the default glass shaders.

It was just a model of a double-moebius I built, really just for the fun of it.

Mike

I added a Klein bottle to the import spline examples. A Klein bottle can be produced by gluing two Mbius strips together along their edges.

Attached is an example using the mobius equations. Download the attached file and read into ViaCAD or Shark using the File:Import:Splines option.

I was just looking at this. I see that the surface is not closed (there is a gap) was this intentional so as not to receive the "Self intersecting or cusping surface found"?
I remember seeing a post from you mentioning a change in program to allow this,.. is this now implemented?
