[Radiance-general] Rendering using Radiance_As Beginners

[Vaib]

Hi Ikrima,

Tutorial series from Dr.Axel Jacobs will be quite helpful to you:

http://www.jaloxa.eu/resources/radiance/documentation/index.shtml

For 3D modeling you can use tools such as: Ecotect, SketchUp (with Daysim,
OpenStudio).

Hope this helps.
