I was just wondering if the plan from Vizrt was to just focus on the long term on Cinema 4D but to buy Lightwave to canabalise the intellectual property of Lightwave so they can pick the best bits of...

I think some of you might be misinterpreting the situation. If I said would Adobe bring have and bring out a 2nd Premiere video program you would say no. But if I said that if Adobe would bring...

Here is a link to the Corona Renderer which explains why somethings are better when using the CPU https://corona-renderer.com/features/proudly-cpu-based

I think there has been always a bit of doom and gloom with some "pro" Blender people putting Lightwave down here on the forums. It isn't totally out of the realm of possibility that there "might" be...

I haven't been on these forums that long, but is it me or are there a lot of "blender" people here down talking Lightwave? Have we had any official confirmation or statements stating that Lightwave...

There was a gap between 2015 and 1018, maybe there is restructuring and plans to release a version like between version 2020 and version 2023. even if there isn't one due for 2021, or 2022.

Is Foundation 3D comming back online in the near future?

If GPU rendering was introduced what sort of API do you think they would use to implement it? OpenCl? Vulkan? CUDA? or something more exotoic?

To be honest I am quite happy to wait a fair while longer if it means that when they do release Lightwave 2020 that it will be less buggy. Do you think that if Lightwave 2020 does come out that they...

Do you think Lightwave 2020 might be one of the last versions with a perpetual licnese? If so I might get it for the long haul as I don't like renting software. I did use Adobe CC for a while for...

Out of curiosity is the Lightwave 3D rendering engine fully optimised to make use of the very latest instructions in both Intel and AMD cpus? I am not a maths guru but would having AVX512 and other...

You also have to bear in mind the GPU market in the not to distant future might be split 3 ways between Nvidia, AMD and Intel. Lightwave supported an open API then you could use both AMD and INTEL...

If lightwave 2020 does come with GPU processing ability, what sort of API do you think will be used? OpenCl or Vulkan? I hope it isn't CUDA as I have just invested in a Radeon VII which I got at a...

I tell you what is strange, I am a bit of newbie to 3d modelling but also do photography as a Canon shooter. One thing that seems to be the in thing in all disciplines is the fact that people keep...

If there is a Lightave 2020 version comming out this year, do you think we will probably know by the end of February?

If there is a Lightwave 2020 do you think it will be announced by the end of February this year if it were to come out?

Is there actually a Lightwave 2020 in the works, if so do you think it is going to be officially announced soon?

Merry Christmas to you all! :)

This might sound strange but might it not be better to wait at least unti 2021 build for GPU acceleration rendering. At the moment you have OpenCl and CUDA but just right now you are starting to get...

I just checked Foundation 3D site just a minute ago and it is up and running fine for me, though sometimes it seems down.

I know Nvidia supports ray tracing at the hardware level with regards to RTX, but you have to remember that it is proprietary to NVIDA. In a short space of time not far off AMD and Intel are going...

I remember that. Level1 tech person found out it was the way that windows schedules threads and something to do with NUMA memory allocation. As far as I am aware (not 100% sure) Windows has fixed...

I have always been facinated with the concept of a render farm. If you do have a render farm over a network does each computer work on separate frame of an animation or can the whole render farm...

I have Lightwave 3D 2018 and from what I understand the rendering engine has been completely been revamped from the ground up. My enquiry is that does getting a workstation graphics card have any...

At the moment RTX is a proprietary technology exclusive to Nvidia. AMD and Intel will be releasing graphics cards soon with ray tracing hardware features/processing. It might make sense for the...
