Quote - That's true Glitterati...you're better off educating yourself on Luxrender and the different settings, the materials, etc. to get a good understanding of what you should be using to render and for the materials. It helped me immensely.

Essentially, you can't just export to Luxrender with no understanding of its settings and expect to get what you want. You need to learn about Luxrender and what it does. You need to learn Luxrender...lol. Of course, Paolo never said you didn't that I recall either ;).

I think this article on Paolo's site says it pretty well:

*Sometimes people ask “how hard is it to get started with Reality?”*This video shows you the answer to that question and it reveals that it is actually pretty simple to start rendering with LuxRender and Reality. In fact it can be  a lot easier than using the standard Studio renderer.
