SWW 2006 Presentations

If anyone is interested in downloading my "PhotoWorks Essentials" and
"Drawing Automation, that was easy" presentations from SWW 2006 you can
find them at www.robrodriguez.com in the "SWW Presentations" area.

Thanks to all that attended the presentations and I invite any comments
you have concearning them.

 

Is your website not complete yet?

 

It's not totally done. I've been adding things little by little and
concentrating on the PW portion. I have a list of content I want to
add its just finding the time to do it.

 

Well thanks. I know how that goes. You're one of the few people I know
who works stone(d).

 

LOL, good one!

 

Thanks Jonathan,

PW can be frustrating at times, I guess I've just learned the tricks to
it over time. It is capable of high quality renderings in the right
hands. I've been looking at Maxwell lately. The images at their
website are amazing but their SW plug-in has some real short comings
(texturing & decals).

I think the pieces are finally in place at SW to see some MAJOR
improvements to PW over the next couple of years.

 

Yes Maxwell can't do textures and decal in the SW plugin as the
texture and decal handling in SW are not upto it - supposedly in
Sw2007 SW have improved things and the SW plugin will offer better
textures and decals. However the standalone Maxwell does do textures
and decals. The downside to maxwell is its rendertimes but where it
makes up on PW is that it is no hassle to set up.

It would be nice - couple of years !! As I say - Rob - I admire
your patience - I suppose a by product of working in such a timeless
material as granite. The village I live in Stithians in Cornwall was
a quarrying village in the past and I beleive they quarried the
largest lump of granite ever - I 'll try and find the picture and post
it. 200 hundred men sitting on a rock !!
