For architectural visualization work, which render engine do you prefer? Vray for C4D or C4D Advanced Render? Why? I have been doing all of my rendering with C4D's Advanced Render and have been looking into Vray and thinking about possibly switching over.

Hoping this is the correct area to post. Hi, I'm a software engineer working on a program to help architects take a base model and generate a real time(using games tech) and more traditional rendered output(video, stills etc). This includes adding materials/lights etc. I was hoping that you guys could help me better understand the preferred work flow for this(we were recently told by a revit user that our material process felt backwards) and what kind of outputs are preferred, i.e is oculus rift useful, 8k stills or 3d movie/walkthroughs to name a few. I come from a more games orientated background so any insight into how architects work would be greatly appreciated. If anything I've said doesn't make sense/isn't clear just let me know and I'll elaborate. Again any thought people have to offer will be really useful for me. Thanks.

I come from a gaming background (BFA, Game Production) and like doing it sometimes BUT... It turns out that my passion is arch vis. I've been at it for a while now and I realize that it's time for me to take another leap in skill level. Here is my site: http://www.craigmonroe.com/home.html Also, what do you think will help me get my skills up? I'm a 3DS Max and V-Ray user.I know I need to learn the graphite modeling tools, organic modeling and more about post-production Photoshop work. On Polycount I wasn't generally well received and some users baasically said I'm very amature-ish. What do you think?

Hej all. Have recently just moved to Sweden and am looking for network connections. I've worked in London for various studios including Hayes Davidson and Wagstaffs Design. Now I working as a 3D Illustrator for Tengbom Arkitekter in Stockholm, Sweden. I'll upload some images to my CG architect portfolio soon but in the meantime please look at www.itschriswebb.com for my portfolio. Also feel free to add me on Twitter www.twitter.com/itschriswebb or LinkedIn www.linkedin.com/in/itschriswebb. Keep up the good work everyone! Chris
