I was going to use Camtasia Studio to write some video tutorials for Photoshop Layers in tS.

I needed to ask the question before I re-educate myself on tS7.6.

Have layers been introduced into other render engines other than light works and model side? If they have for real time DX, how does one do it?

I noticed that Vray renders to psd on model side, but the dialog box for psd doesn't appear, so it is lightworks only?

Also noticed there is no psd output in workspace.

Since the flow is concentrated on PSD layers and photoshop, it's not real important, but thought I would clarify the circumstance before I do the tutorials.

I believe the render to photoshop layers was written specifically for Lightworks on the modeler side.


You may already know this, but the Master training series covers Multipass Rendering (http://www.caligari.com/products/trueSpace/ts5/Courses/Newmultipass.asp?Cate=Training&SubCate=Master). But there's always room for different workflows. :)


Photoshop's PSD format is not a render option from the workspace.

Ya, thanks Heidi. :)

I plan on focusing more on the PhotoShop side to show some tricks and tips that can be used with 3D renders.

It will be an ongoing series that will show how to manipulate laters, masking, special effects and other things.

Learn as I grow. Teach what I know. :)
