"renderer not found error" - giannis196 - 02-07-2015

I wanted to render my model but i had the following error report:
"renderer C:/program files/kerkithea rendering system/kerkithea.exe not found:(error,"

Should i install 1 by 1 the renderers?
How to do that?
What is the best (most professional) renderer for wings 3D?

So, how to fix the problem?


I have got OS "Ubuntu 14.04"
CPU 6 core 3.3 GHz
4 GB ram (clock rate at 1333 MHz)

yes. They are third part applications.

You have to download Kerkythea (check the link bellow) and tell Wings3D about the .exe file location by using the main menu Edit->Plugin Preferences->Kerkythea.

Well, as I'm a hobbyist I can't answer that, but I like Kerkythea because I can use its UI (user interface - the stand alone app) to change materials details not exposed by the Wings3d plugin.

You have also the option to install POV-Ray and Yafaray plugins (both software are free too). You can find information about them in these threads:
- Kerkythea Rendering Software
- YafaRay Rendering Software;
- POV-Ray Rendering Software

They are third part applications? Can i use these third part applications to my project for commercial or non commercial use?
For example can i use them in order to render my advertise video?
Where i can read about it's license?
thanks!

Thanks Micheus.
After choosing the right file path i put the renderer to render my model.
thanks!

For Kerkithea you find it in the install folder - Readme.txt.
