Scott Davidson replied to M.C.J.E. van der Heijde's discussion Anti aliasing
"martin - The evaluation will render at a very low resolution.  If you render to a higher resolution does the render look better?  This is not possible to test in the eval since the resolution is clamped."

Hey Scott;

you've been a great help and I'm compelled to pester yet again.  Attached are two renderings that are to include piping.  The Rhino rendering show the piping just fine while the Nxt rendering does not show the piping.  I created the piping while my menu choice for renderer was Nxt and used the Nxt control panel to assign material to the piping.  Many thanks again, hope to hear from you soon.  Rob LaddFlamingo%20Nxt%20rendered%20boat%20cushions.jpgRhino%20V5%20rendered%20boat%20cushions.jpg

Hello Scott, I just installed Rhino 5.0, Flamingo nXt and the Render Farm, following the steps to submit an image to the render farm it tells me to Launch WalkAbout and then to press the Render Farm button on he WalAbout toolbar, the problem is that there is NO such button on the toolbar, is there a way to add it to it or what can I do? Thank you.

-Bernardo

I suppose that in the Document Properties it should be found, but I don't see where it says so. By the way, I am using the beta version of flamingo, or flamingonxt. Is there a difference between them? I have looked around through the internet to find where to change it, but I cannot find it.

Hello, I'm a student studying architecture and we have just begun working on rendering with flamingo. Is there any way to change to dpi or have the renders larger than the default format? We need larger images for the boards we are creating for our work.

Sorry, I've just joined. I put up a pretty picture just as a place-card to see how the page rendered it. That will be replaced as soon as I have something better. I'm still learning Rhino, a newbie I'm afraid.

I'll remove it if it matters.
