KeyShot/HyperShot/Shot Users Read This First!

[NateLiquidGravity]

Welcome,
First a basic history lesson: KeyShot, HyperShot and Shot are near blood/code related. (See Pic) I'll save you the details on why the software diverged. In the end each has a slightly different feature set, but they are all realtime rendering programs.

There are many useful tools and files posted here with the HyperShot name in the posts. Many of these can be used for KeyShot, HyperShot and Shot!

A very big thank you to Ralf for sharing many of these great tools and links!!!

Mods,
I figured I'd bite at this and maybe it will be stickied for future visitors.
I'll add more info to this post soon.
Please change the "Using HyperShot" forum to "Using KeyShot/HyperShot"

Thanks!
