RyanSpaulding Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 Anyone have any comparison shots? I'm curious as to how this stacks up against Maxwell or how it stacks up as a renderer at all. Anyone have any experience with this product? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devin Johnston Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 Fran is beta testing it right now, she seems to really like it and she is a former Maxwell user. Fry seems to have almost all the capabilities of Maxwell, there have been claims that it's faster than Maxwell but I think the Jury is still out on that one. I think it's still to early to say if it's going to surpass Maxwell but they have a good start and really good technical support compared to Maxwell.

dave davidson Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 i dont want to be a part of a which is better maxwell or fry debate, but i can say ive used both and they both have thier own merits. i can say that fry still being in beta gets me excited on where it might go and so far im happy to work with it in my host app which is cinema 4d. i set my client work for the same amount of time as i would in maxwell and the output is very nice for me and my clients. for me the work flow in c4d with fry is the killer step as i find it really easy to get a fry render out of c4d. ive posted images on thier forum so you can see what ive been doing with it. all i can say watch this space, i know i am Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ernest Burden III Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 im happy to work with it in my host app which is cinema 4d. That's the best part to me, the Cinema connection. It's just out, but looks promising. I'm also not very interested in comparing Fry to maxwell, as I've given up on Maxwell so its no longer an option for me, even as it takes up space on my hard-drive.

RyanSpaulding Posted November 8, 2006 Author Share Posted November 8, 2006 I've done a little research on this rendering engine... And just WOW. I'm amazed at the results. I wonder how easy it'll be to use. I've done some work in VRay recently, though very light as we've been swamped and I cant dive into it with a deadline until I'm comfortable, but just wow. I cant WAIT for release on this engine. The programmers seem like good people too. I'd advise all to check it out who haven't. Picking which renderer to specialize in is a TOUGH decision.
