High Dynamic Range Images - or HDRI for short are the lighting technology for truly realistic 3D-Design. The extra illumination info of a scene which is wrapped into the HDRI-surround image gives your radiosity-scenes a degree of realism so far reserved for Hollywood ...
With HDRIs from this collection your 3D-scenes will look like "a million bucks": we offers a high-quality and comprehensive library of HDRI effects for the direct use in high-end 3D-Design- and animation applications.
This technology saves the 3D-designer from elaborate manual definition of multiple light-sources and also from lengthy experimenting with color choice and light-volume. The HDRIs also contain the information whether there is a direct light-source (e.g. sun, spot light) with defined shadows - or a cloudy sky/neon lights with diffuse light and "soft" shadows.
But also the color spectrum of the real scene (environment) has great effect on the virtual, rendered object or scene. The color of things (e.g. trees, gras, forest ground) in the surroundings for instance will impact the appearance of the rendered 3D-model ... likewise will the fiery red-tone of a sunset cloud create a realistic mood of such an event in reality.
Cinema 4D для архитектурной визуализации - пакет нового поколения от Maxon Computer. В дополнение к совместимости с Allplan ArchiCAD и VectorWorks, появились расширенные библиотеки объектов и материалов и новый инструмент Virtual Walkthrough для навигации по сцене. Новый интерфейс предлагает более лаконичные и интуитивно понимаемые иконки, включает много новых функций, например, откидывающиеся окна управления. Для архитекторов будут интересны опции: усовершенствованный OpenGL дисплей, управление сценой и система управления слоями. Главная новинка – это Architecture Extension Kit. Новые библиотеки отображаются прямо в браузере контента и содержат более 300 объектов мебели и декора, в том числе много изделий знаменитых дизайнеров.

I
suggest you use the camtasia player to view these tut's,even though it
will play in windows media player but the colouring is all wrong. Plus
you will get a much higher resolution with the camtasia player
especially if you want to smoothly scrub through the vid's. I have
supplied the Player if you so wish to download it.
New features:
(*) New render elements: VRayMatteShadow, VRayTotalLighting, VRayRawTotalLighting; (*) Added exporter script to the .vrscene file format supported by the standalone version of V-Ray; (*)
Animation modes for the irradiance map (added two new modes "Animation
(prepass)" and "Animation (rendering)" along with a paramter to control
the blend between frames...
