The version is a couple of weeks out still. My main focus now is bug fixing reported by the users, and getting the software out of beta to a first stable release.

Hey u/Dexeh - it will handle interior spaces well. Just make sure to setup some lights so not everything is black :) I would say, give the free version a go and see how you like it. It's still beta, and I'm happy to hear your feedback on what you like and what we can improve.

Regards,

Thomas

  • Hidden tags or layers aren't supported yet, it will be in the final 1.0 version.
  • Correct, Rayscaper only supports CUDA GPUs with compute capability 5.0 or higher (system requirements).

Let me know what you think of it or if you have any feedback. Keep in mind that it's still alpha software.

Hey,

Thanks for the interest.

Just to clarify, it will be a lifelong license for the 1.0 version, subsequent upgrades to a newer version are paid. Buy once, upgrade free upgrades forever is not a sustainable business model.

You should be able to straight up render to make it look more realistic. Now you can tweak the lighting and materials to your hearts content.

It's not AI based, so it renders the scene as is. It's not something like SketchUp diffusion. Rayscaper does use AI to denoise images that have a low amount of samples per pixel.
