Our upcoming version v1.1 will have a killer feature: integration with Motiva's Colimo application. What does this mean? It means that it is now possible to edit the materials in real time as a post-process. In more detail:

1) Thea Render can calculate extra information needed for user selected materials during the course of a single render. The additional channels computed are exported as a single Colimo project with high quality of the original render being preserved.

2) Using Colimo, the color and texture of the pre-selected materials can be changed in real-time.  With web export, combinatorial variations can be generated automatically - check our online kitchen sample (375 variations from a single render).
