However, the 3DSr3 renderer is so much better than Lightwave that it's in a completely different league. If output quality is what you're comparing, there IS NO COMPARISON. You just can't get the edge quality with super-sampling that you can with an analytical A-buffered renderer. Plus, you'll have color posterization (quantization) problems in dark areas with Lightwave… especially if you attempt to do gamma correction. I sure enjoy reading messages like this. You guys are awesome. I love R3 so far, we got our copy on Monday. Very impressive indeed. I can't seem to be able to stop using it though……
