So if youĮxperience missing shadows, strange highlights or even crases, this mayīe the reason. It may or may not work with newer releases of the Cg toolkit. The plug-in has been developed using version 1.1 of the Cg toolkit: Professor anything you might like to add?

These are animations rendered with the hardware card. The 12pointO file is a plug-in for sketch and toon effects.Ĭlicking on more info will lead you to screen movies of the plug-in working. This plugin employs the graphics card for an interactive preview and fast rendering into files including environment maps, bump maps, and shadows.
