Hello,

I am thinking of buying indie for home but I need to have some answers first.
I couldn't find clear answer about those, so here you go


1)Can I import my gallery(“save in gallery” sop and whatnot)that were created in FX, to Indie?(by copying them in my documents)
2)Can I use my redshift material presets created in FX
3)Other than the 4k render limitation, is there anything else missing from FX in the Indie version?
4)Can i create tools and files at home in Indie that i can use at work on FX not HDA but saved in gallery

Thank you

Could you install Apprentice (which AFAIK is basically Indie with a watermark) and try it out for yourself?

AFAIK you can go from FX to Indie, but not the other way around. I believe this goes not just for scene files and HDA but gallery items as well since they also contain CPIO files like scene files and HDA. If you create shelf tools, which are scripts that create nodes, they can be carried over as scripts are only a list of commands and not actually CPIO of nodes.
