Tungsten Renderer is described as 'Tungsten is a physically based renderer I originally wrote in early 2014 for the Image Synthesis Rendering Competition at ETH, where it won 1st place with the image pictured above. It is intended for offline rendering in graphics research and is still in development, at least' and is an app. There are five alternatives to Tungsten Renderer for Windows, Linux, Mac and Blender. The best Tungsten Renderer alternative is LuxCoreRender, which is both free and Open Source. Other great apps like Tungsten Renderer are Mitsuba, appleseed, YafaRay and NOX Renderer.
LuxCoreRender is a physically based and unbiased rendering engine. Based on state of the art algorithms, LuxCoreRender simulates the flow of light according to physical equations, thus producing realistic images of photographic quality.
Mitsuba is a research-oriented rendering system for forward and inverse light transport simulation. It consists of a core library and a set of plugins that implement functionality ranging from materials and light sources to complete rendering algorithms.
YafaRay is a free open-source montecarlo raytracing engine released under the LGPL 2.1 license. Raytracing is a rendering technique for generating realistic images by tracing the path of light through a 3D scene.
NOX Renderer is a rendering software based on unbiased methods.
The renderer is available as a standalone Windows executable with a plug-in to link it to 3ds Max.
A linking script is also available for Blender users.
As with other similar applications, such as Maxwell Render a.
