Have you used Cycles with CPU or GPU?


It was GPU (aka Experimental in 2.66)

i did look long enough to see it was very well made, then i looked at the dice instead. that one i really liked, nothing scary about it.

I need to lean to draw spiders.

6 feet5 inches 300 pounds, it would take several people to throw me, and I'm only evil to people I really like.

K1TesseraEna Perfect.
I have laborated little bit with the new Blender 2.66 and Cycle render engine. Here is my first attempt.

....I can not even imagine how it would be possible to do something like that wasp.

Now I can get an idea of how something so complex can be modeled in blender. Very, very hard work and mastery in blender (watch the video):

I've just seriously gotten into Blender, The only things I've done are this cup and ball thing, and those were following a tutorial. I've yet to come up with anything useful or recognizable. I'd really like to know how to use it in conjunction with Gimp but I haven't figured out yet. I really would like to do simple things like put a logo on the cup or something like that.
Part of what's giving me a fit is that I usually watch tuts from two people, tutor4u and VscorpionC, one of them always uses cycles render and the other always uses blender render. I will persevere.

Pretty good for the starters!
To do logo on the cup check out UV mapping. Mapping images on simple blender objects like a cup is easier than one might think. Blender Wiki explains it in a nutshell.
There should be some good tutorials on YouTube as well.
Talking about GIMP involvement you can find Blender-GIMP real-time painting a lot of fun.
As for the rendering, in older tutorials they use internal Blender render because Cycles render is a relatively recent Blender feature (about 1 year).
If you have NVIDIA graphic card on your PC you might want to download most recent optimized Blender builds with CUDA Kernels and Open Shading Language (OSL) support from Graphicall.org CUDA Kernel allows graphic card GPU rendering it is much faster than CPU rendering and OSL is for advanced renders.
