Overview
General Features
Easy to use, works seamlessly inside Rhino, and provides a host of features that speed and simplify image rendering.
Uses both raytracing and radiosity to create sophisticated single-frame images and animations.
Automatically calculates indirect light, hard and soft shadows, color bleeding, reflections, translucency, transparency, refraction, highlight, depth of field, and depth attenuation.
Supports multiprocessors and background processing.
Includes mathematically generated 3-D plants with seasonal variation, giving realistic plants, shadows, and reflections.
Works inside Rhino. Render changes to the model immediately. You never need to export or start over.
Includes radiosity technology providing unrivaled image quality and accuracy.
Interactive raytrace and radiosity rendering.
Quick raytrace rendering option with reflections, transparency, and shadows.
Progressive-refinement rendering algorithms with on-screen preview.
Interactive radiosity solution using OpenGL.
Render a partial window.
Save and restore plant, exposure, sun and sky, and environment settings.
Save and restore radiosity solutions with the model.
Batch rendering through scripts.
Multiprocessor support.
Background processing.
Graphical library browsers for materials and plants.
Comprehensive full-color PDF documentation and on-line, context-sensitive help.
Piranesi EPix support.
RPC 3.0 support.
Post-processing for quick adjustment of fog, glare, glow, wireframe, and depth of field.
Key Features
This plug-in includes: Rendering Photometrically accurate images with reflections, refraction, diffusion, translucency, transparency, colour bleeding, hard and soft shadows, depth of field, depth attenuation, and indirect lighting.Materials: Drag and drop from an extensive material library with user controllable properties including defuse color, reflections, refraction, translucency, transparency, depth attenuation, bitmap textures with tiling and masking, procedural 2-D and 3-D materials, ClearFinish™, and angular blend. Lighting: Lighting options include directional, point, spot, linear, rectangular, and goniometric lights, sun, ground, sky, and global illumination using a light dome or an HDR image. Other features: Procedural clouds, fractal-generated 3-D plants, progressive-refinement for quick preview, RPC support, Piranesi EPix support, and extensive plant and background libraries.
System Requirements
Hardware requirements: Flamingo runs inside Rhino 4.0 and has the same hardware requirements. Rhino with Flamingo runs on ordinary Windows desktop and laptop computers, with: • Pentium, Celeron, or higher processor. (Multiple processors are supported.) • Windows XP or Vista. • 200 MB disk space. • 1 GB RAM. 2 GB is recommended.
