Hello,

No problem at all to help...
Very Happy

Once the selected rendering tool is in place on your system, you need to configure ppModeler so that it can launch the application. This can be done in the 'options->cfg...' menu, 'Rendering Commands' tab.
Here, you should type the complete path to the main executable, with option and the characters %s where the input file parameter is given to the rendering engine. Someting like:
"C:\program files\toxic\toxic.exe" %s
The quote are needed because there is a space in the path.
Then, you are ready to render.
With your scene on, you can render a view or from a camera.
Don't forget to select the exported file (the one use as input by the rendering engine), and hit ok.
Once finish, the generated image is not opened automaticaly (a feature that can be added if requested). You need to open explorer and go to the folder where you saved your exported file. If everything went right, you should see an image there!
