What software's are the best way to render 3D CAD files? I am using CATIA v5, and I can export files to a variety of CAD standard files, iges, stp, wrl, and step. I want to be able to render these files in a high end rendering software. I was thinking of using 3D Max and using VRay but It has a steep learning curver to use it. Has anyone got any recommendations?
I am an Interior Designer and I use Max. It would take you a while to learn as it did for me and I am still learning to this day. Plus the lighting is quite time consuming to get right. It is a widely used package and produces good results and very realistic. Good Luck Claire
I agree - it's fantastic. Maybe there are technically better rendering packages out there, but I've got amazing results out of PhotoView 360 with minimal effort.
