Advanced Graphics Catalogue Update



 

 
 
Faster Renders Movie

Using complicated lighting in your design will greatly enhance the presentation but cause render speeds to slow down as the lighting effects are calculated. While adding the finishing touches to your design the reduced render speed can be frustrating. It is possible to greatly increase the render speed by disabling the effects of lighting but still show all the textures and design details.
