Hello everyone,
I'm a lecturer who normally teaches Rhino + 3D Max but this semester has switched to Rhino + V-Ray. My students work on their projects at school then take them home to finish them.
Is there any way to package up their files with all used textures and images like archive in 3D Max? It's driving them nuts trying to find all the files and put them in the same location on their home computers.
Secondly, is there any way to render with an image in the background? These are architecture/landscape students and they often want to render their designs onto an existing photo. In Max they put the image into the viewport, line up their cameras to that view then render out the whole thing using an image as the background environment.
Finally is there anyway to clone the render window so we can compare settings? It's very difficult while lecturing to save the previous render then open it up again in separate app to compare settings with the current render. While teaching it's important to compare how settings will effect the render outcome.
Other than these things, I'm enjoying teaching V-Ray and my students are really benefitting from not having to leave Rhino and learn an entirely foreign interface.
Thanks!
PS: Sorry if these things have been addressed before, I did a quick search but couldn't find any recent answers.
