It is indeed an incredibly popular and widely used engine in the industry, and you can find a lot of visualizations made using cycles. These visualizations are of really good quality. In my courses, I personally use this engine, and in a few moments, I will show you an example of the results we can achieve using Cycles. It is a very easy to use engine, even though at first glance, it may seem like there are a lot of options to change, set, and adjust, et cetera. In practice, only a few options here have a decisive impact on how our visualizations will look. The rest comes down to the appropriate selection of materials, the proper setting of these materials, and the correct handling of light. And of course, we must remember that in visualizations, high quality is very important. Models. If these elements I mentioned earlier do not work well together, then even the best engine rendering won't help here. Opinions about cycles on the internet vary. There are many opinions where people doubt that. What do you think? These results are really high quality and these visualizations look very good. They lack nothing. Next we can see a visualization from my first course on apartment visualization. Here is a close-up from the same course. Night visualizations. And also a few interesting visualizations from my private work that I did for my clients. As you can see, no problem. You can achieve very good results. I once encountered the opinion that Cycles is an engine that is very easy to learn, but very difficult to master. Before mastering, I personally understand it as the fine-tuning of materials, the awareness of how to create these materials and how to use them appropriately. In the scene, and also very important here, is the play with light and good composition, which is what I mentioned a moment ago. It's hard to disagree with that. However, the engine itself in its essence is a very simple engine, as you will find out in the following lessons. However, there are several alternatives to the cycles engine available online. The first and most popular of these is Octane Render. You can find a lot of works online whose visualizations were created using this engine. The results are really very good. Is this engine better than cycles? It's hard to say, as in every case there are opinions that say it is definitely better, but there are also opinions that say it is worse. Personally, I have never had any experience with this engine, so it's difficult for me to take a definitive stance here. On the website www.homeautowire.com you can find this engine and read information about it. Another quite popular alternative is the Luxcore engine. All the information about it is available on the website, www.luxcopender.org. Personally, I had some experience with it a few years ago, but it didn't particularly impress me. Also, in this case, as with the Octane Render, there are opinions that this engine is much better than Cycles. And there are opinions that it is worse. It's hard to determine definitively. However, an undeniable downside of both these engines is the, the ready-made models that we can buy and that are of really good quality have materials prepared specifically for the cycles engine and are quite well adapted to it. If we want to work with a different rendering engine, we need to adapt these materials to that specific engine. This can prove to be quite labor-intensive and somewhat problematic. That's precisely why I choose it for my work, the Cypress engine. It performs very well. As you already knew, you can achieve really good results. And there are no issues with accessing ready-made models, as I mentioned a moment ago. By default, when you first start Blender, the EV engine is set. We can change this engine here in this place. It's the second icon from the top in the panel on the right side simply by selecting cycles. Here all the options that are available and connected to this engine change, but we will talk about these options the most important ones in this system later. That's all by way of introduction to the cycles engine.",
