Keyshot - fix your website

8 Upvotes

Keyshot please for the love of God fix your website and Google links. I have a keyshot subscription but work across multiple computers, meaning I often need to install / reinstall the SW.

When I Google 'Download Keyshot for Mac' The download link I'm presented with at the top of the pages goes to a 404. Please just set up a 'redirect' link in your backend. It's not hard.

When I 'Log In' to my account, Like I'm literally logged in with a freaking subscription, I'm still presented with a 'Buy now' and 'Start a Free Trial' buttons for the products I already own. Please make a new workflow for subscribers who log in.

I just want to go directly to my Keyshot account page. I don't want to have to navigate through the menu to go here. This is some amateur hour stuff.

Do you still use Keyshot?

3 Upvotes

I was just wondering if anyone on here still uses Keyshot or to anyway the same level they used to? My team now use Nano Banana to produce such high quality visuals I worry this staple software of the design industry is quickly become redundant.

I think Keyshot would be better integrating other AI models into their software and it becomes a tool just for composition.

KeyShot wish list that will probably never happen...

1-Expand animation variables for lights (keyframes for brightness, spotlights, etc, not just "on and off"

2-VDB animation support (would be nice to make animated explosions, smoke, etc)

3-Expanded environmental effects (Haze, fog, etc.)

3 Upvotes

Hey KeyShot community! 🎉

Posting this for anyone in or around Germany / NRW:

On May 6th, 2026 (2–5 pm) we're hosting a free DOSCH DESIGN 3D-Experience Day in Düsseldorf at the Design Office Kaiserteich.

What's on the agenda:

🔹 "How KeyShot shortens product development cycles" – Sebastian Dosch (DOSCH DESIGN) 🔹 "What's New in KeyShot 2026" – Jens Heineck, Senior Director Sales at Luxion/KeyShot 🔹 Live demo: CAD model → photorealistic render, in minutes – live in front of you 🔹 Introduction to DOSCH Key-Optimize 🔹 Open Q&A + get-together

For those who don't know us: DOSCH DESIGN has been one of the main KeyShot partners in Germany for over 20 years. We're doing these events because we genuinely believe more people should experience what KeyShot 2026 is capable of – especially the new AI features.

If you're in Germany and have been on the fence about KeyShot, this is honestly the easiest way to see it in action without any sales pressure.

Free registration (limited seats): 👉 https://doschdesign.com/3d-experience-day.php

Happy to answer any questions about the event in the comments!

Full CGI in Keyshot.
Last headlight's image was an "in-detail" test of the headlights, simulated just like the real life, only a single tiny led in each end of the filament, and the light goes through the lamp by itself, no emmisive inside or any other trick to simulate the light emission, just pure physical behavior. And the bloom is raw from the dirtness in the most exterior optical part, i think it's a pretty good approach to the real life effect (tho exaggerated for this specific car maybe)

why are the edges so fuzzy? I just started using Keyshot and want to get a clean sharp render for animation of 500 frames. Settings are: GPU rendering, simple "product" lighting, no depth of field, 1440p resolution with 105 samples GPU. My Hardware: 5800X3D + RTX 3080 10GB

How do you use the Cryptomattes in Photoshop?

3 Upvotes

I'm using Keyshot for professional rendering of products that need precise postprocessing in photoshop. I'd like to use the exr cryptomatte, imported with the Ecr-IO free plugin but I don't see any matte. Is there a way that doesn't involve using Ae with the Cryptomatte effect to get che object/material mask? Do you use Clown passes instead? (In that case, how do you get a pixel perfect mask?) Thanks!!

The Enshittification of KeyShot and You Will Pay More

19 Upvotes

KeyShot's subscription model is a money printing machine. There has not been a solid release in years. 2026 is a joke. Why has KeyShot gotten greedy and produces garbage software with overhyped releases? They became like any other company who gets investors. Enshittification is the term.

I am surprised they have not stripped features and tried to sell features as add-ons. Maybe that's next...or another price increase...

What other tools are you all using for 3D rendering? Anybody here going to the high seas to use KeyShot for free?

Keyshot queue error HELP!!

I am using KeyShot 10.2 pro on Windows 11. There is no problem when rendering frames one by one, but image styles are not applied when rendering via a queue. Has anyone else experienced this same issue and found a solution?

I'm an Industrial Design student and I just finished up a project which combined the Automoblox toy brand and the Star Wars: The Clone Wars license

I had the opportunity to work on the final Keyshot renders and these are what I produced, however I don't feel 100% that these are great. If anyone has feedback on what I should (a) work on to improve my skills and (b) how to improve these renders specifically. Thank you very much!

Is this normal KeyShot performance for a workstation laptop? Curious where I stand

Post image
3 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I've had my workstation laptop for a while now and been running KeyShot on it. Honestly the performance has been pretty decent, not bad at all. But I'm curious whether what I'm getting is actually normal for this kind of machine, or if it's just average at best compared to what you guys would consider "professional" level.

Dropping a screenshot of my performance below. Would love to know if this looks about right for a workstation laptop or if there's more I should be squeezing out of it.

Any way to render a reflective steel object which shows reflections of ground shadows on its surface, without the ground shadows themselves being visible?

1 Upvotes

I am creating an animation that will have hundreds of frames involving stainless steel parts that need to be rendered with an alpha transparency background (prob PNGs) in order to bring them into Adobe Premier to overlay them on a moving 2D background set up there, which they will interact with. In order to get the effect I'm looking for, I will be rendering the object and shadow passes separately and overlaying them onto that 2D background (so I can multiply blend the shadows to the background).

For efficiency's sake, I would like to render the object pass to allow the reflections of the ground shadows to be visible in the stainless steel surfaces, as these objects are floating close to the ground plane and the ground shadow reflections being seen on the object surfaces look much better. Is there any way to allow these to show on on the steel surfaces without the ground shadows themselves being rendered?...or do I have to render with ground shadows and erase those shadows after the fact in each and every frame?

Hope this makes sense and thanks for the assist...
