<r>THX for the encouragement! With your corrections to the study, it works for me, too. Very helpful. Now at least I know my system works properly.<br/>
<br/>
Nevertheless, I will concentrate more on the geometry of the parts. Probably I'll come back to surface finishing later. It's quite exciting ...

<r>Congratulations to your achievement, GaudiGalopin3324. I didn't succeed. All I get is always that wellknown blend of diffuse and sharp mirror.<br/>

<r>SH3D is great at easily modelling and visualizing buildings and their interior. It is not trying to be a generic modeller. This limitation is really its advantage, as the tool can be kept simple this way.<br/>
<br/>
That said, I figured 3 ways to obtain models for interior objects, in SH3D ...

Stop thrilling! It's tearing me apart![@-)]
Did you manage to make Ns effective?
New Version of yafaray? Other Renderer?
Magic group name prefix? Some Config setting nobody knows?
Or even a code patch?
What's the solution?

Any use for a German translation of the UI? I'm willing.
