  • VFR and animation with Bongo

    Hi Everyone,

    I am considering purchasing Bongo3D version 2.0 when it comes out and went over to their forum to ask a few questions about the upcoming version. The response that they gave me was that the render engine you are using must support these features as well. And if it does, then yes, Bongo can animate these effects. I believe that the Rhino RDK must also be supported by the render engine from feedback they gave to me and I remember reading on this forum a while back that the VFR 2.0 will support the Rhino RDK.

    So, the questions that I posted to the Bongo group are below -- I'd like to be able to use VFR to render out animations doing the things listed below. So my main question here is, will VFR support doing the items that I mention below?

    The questions were:

    1) create an animation where monitors in the scene are playing video?
    2) if so, is it possible to have each monitor (let's say you have four LCD's
    in one scene) playing a different video?
    3) will 2.0 be able to animation lights so that they change color - for instance,
    they change from blue to yellow, etc during the animation?
    4) will 2.0 also be able to move lights so that they shine in different directions
    during the animation? (like a flashlight moving around for instance)
    5) if 2.0 will be able to change light color and move lights will it be
    able to do this at the same time? so, we could have a light moving around
    and changing color while doing it?

    Thanks very much for your time!

    Can anyone at ASGVIS answer the post above? Will VFR 2.0 support the Rhino RDK and support rendering the listed animation features if Bongo Does?

    Thank you for your time,
    Hoop

      Hey Hoop, animation is not really our thing. You are gonna need help from your fellow users for this one. Any users want to help out?

      Also we only monitor these forums for profanity and other unmentionables, this is a place for the users to come together and share their experiences and draw from the opinions of others. We are not a huge company so we are not always lurking.

        Hi Alrami,

        thanks for the info, don't mean to bug you guys, i know you're a small company and very busy.

        Can anyone tell me if Vray for Rhino 2.0 will support the Rhino RDK???

        It is my understanding that I will be able to animate the items in my inquiry if Vray supports the RDK.

        Thanks!
        Hoop

          we don't know when we will be releasing V-Ray for Rhino 2.0, the next version won't be a 2.0 release.

            Hoop,
            it is my understanding that you'll need additional software to make the video screens work.
            Check this out:

            That might help.
