Rendering Upgrade

Cineware standard renderer and new Redshift renderer (GPU based) from Maxon, based on R23, are included in ARCHICAD 25 Update.

With Redshift being a GPU based renderer, results will be faster compared to a CPU based renderer (like ARCHICAD's Cineware Standard renderer).

Redshift is currently included as a Preview version, and is available for SSA users.

Faster Grass Rendering

In Grass Surface channel, use the new “Segments” field to limit grass blades and speed up rendering.

Set the number of segments per glass blade (from 1 to 20). 1 segment means the blade is entirely straight. The default segment number is 8. To speed up rendering, set this number lower. This is worthwhile if you have large grassy areas in the distance where more precise rendering is unimportant.
