I wonder if @ssgbryan even uses the AMD ProRender. I can't use it because I'm on the wrong team, i.e. Mac + Nvidia card. It doesn't work, and the ProRemder that comes with C4D R21 doesn't even work in CPU-only mode, so I can't use it at all.
ProRender a better engine than Cycles? From what I've read in the forums, ProRender still has a long way to go before it is really ready for production. Maxon has discontinued ProRender from C4D R23. There must be a reason why Maxon (an early supporter of ProRender) did that. Now it's entirely up to AMD to support ProRender for C4D.
If I had the choice I would like to see Corona or RedShift render engines in Poser :-)
Maxon Acquired Redshift offers it as subscription only option to C4D users.
No reason to support a free engine like ProRender when you squeeze more money from C4D users with Redshift.?
I dont use NVIDIA hardware and am very glad to see AMD offering alternatives to NVIDIA's dominance.
However Blender cycles with its Denoising algorithum and full support for Blenders volumetric smoke& fire effects and tight integration with the realtime EEVEE engine, make it a far better render engine for my animation purposes.
