Hey

Ive been using Lightwave 3d for 5 years.It has an extremely powerfull renderer and a plugin called Fprime which is a realtime render.Ie Radiosity and immediate updates.Its the fastest and best renderer I know.

The only thing that stops me from moving over to Maya is the renderer?.I Mean ya mental ray is ok but it doesnt have a realtime window..

Im not talking about IPR thats greaty lacking.Im talking about a pure realtime updating window that updates Radiosity and shadows and textures not to mention extra objects as you add them etc.And also updates when you move your camera.Thats what im talking.about.

So is there one for Maya?
