Brazil for Rhino

Runs fine on WinXP. No crashes. Allows to assign colors and materials to objects in a parallel mode , without changing colors in object properties in mainstream work area. Main workload in rendering process is on processor of course. The more power your dual core has, the faster rendering you get. Allowes to make most of your 3D work by vizualizing it on high level even by a non professional 3D artist.

Love the results. Only complaint, is I wish it came with a tutorial book, and full materials' library. Seems limited on the tutorials and literature on the exact functions of all controls.

I suppose all things good tend to be complex - and expensive. Brazil is not difficult to learn to use at the basic level, but since there are so many options, tweaks, etc, getting the results you really want can take time. The most challenging are the material editors. Producing materials can be confusing, and none come loaded with the software. I think that is one of my only gripes.
It can produce some amazing images, however, that just blow away the competition, particularly Flamingo, which just doesn't have the quality results. I really appreciate the lighting effects and ability to set subtle image values in many different and unique ways.
