And as Rhinoceros/Grasshopper 3D users:

I would like also to see this connection, I know that you're asking for ArchiCAD, but just hear me in this;

ArchiCAD already have a live connection with Rhino and Grasshopper 3D, so if you're plugin for Grasshopper is made, nothing fancy, just we configure the material characteristics in Grasshopper and send the parameters to ARchiCAD as a new or edited materials

Hi everyone,

I´m an ArchiCAD user, and recently have seen the power of Corona render.

As an architect and ArchiCAD user, I would like to put my to cents in this discussion:
1. I wish I can see the Corona for ArchiCAD, and I think that it will be adopted quiet quickly by ArchiCAD users community since that they will see it as:
1_1 A hassle free rendering engine that can give very good results in short periods of time.
1_2 Have a very similar work philosophy of that ArchiCAD.
1_3 Optimized resource usage.
1_4 CineRender (ArchiCAD's native rendering engine) although it's good, but it can't compete with Corona, either in easiness of use, delivery time, configuration, or material editing, basically you will blow them away.

But there're two issues I would like to point them out:
2_1 I would like to be able con configure my rendering materials using a nodal system.
2_2 For the future, I would like to be able to use renders made by Corona in Graphisoft's BIMx app.
