Modo 401

Still another crash-prone release!

I don't seem to have that problem, maybe there's a loose screw on that workstation. I once had a loose motherboard electrical grounding screw cause my PC to crash intermittently. I blamed it on some software I had installed just before the problem started. I have also been able to crash various programs I've used over the years all by myself, fortunately I don't give up so easily and I have been rather successful a finding out what I did wrong so that I could correct my mistakes.

Last I heard you were testing Hexagon. Hows that going?

I got Hexagon from Daz 3D a while back for $1.00

Strange enough on my PC Hexagon is quite stable.
I started modeling my house (original, uh?) and in the meantime I'm looking a round for a good and cheap renderer solution.
I trialed DAZ Studio but don't like at all the interface and workflow.
Maybe an old version of Carrara, or Kerkythea could make the job.
Any suggestion on a good stand-alone render software?
