Rendering w/ Rhino

I’m looking for some opinions on Rhino’s rendering program Flamingo vs. 3D Studio Viz/Max. I currently don’t have Flamingo, but was considering purchasing it depending on it’s quality of materials, lighting, and raytrace attributes. Any input helps, thanx.

check archive. plenty of posts on Flamingo. i heard Flamingo can do nice renderings. have seen some. but hear its slow. if your using Max probably good to keep it. and if you have Mental Ray with Max check out this site

tutorial uses Mental Ray shaders from http://www.lightengine3d.com . the lightengine stuff is good. been using a few with Maya. but guess since Mental Ray is all the same you can use with Max. dont think Flamingo will do this stuff yet.

the french link is dead…
