The inability to move objects when pre-rendering is in progress makes it inconvenient to customize the scene.


I want to ask for clarification, what exactly do you mean by "pre-rendering"? The phase when it says "starting viewport render"? Maybe also the CUDA/OCL kernel compilation step?

Comment on rough glass: This is overlapping with the point about new Microfacet BSDF. In fact, microfacet models might be applicable to multiple materials, or specific to some situation, based on the model. This will require further research into which model is to be implemented.

A little comment: While I'm happily collecting all ideas in the bullet list at the moment, I would later group things such as Embree4 under more generic terms like "Improve efficiency of existing engines". This is both to keep the list reasonably short and concise, and IMHO the poll should be ...

thanks, included!

Thanks for the input.
I think the last item (reference on extensions website) doesn't need to be included in a poll, we should already check about that when v2.10 stable is released.

For simplification of the addon development process, a new mechanism has been added to allow running the addon from a local git repository.
Two environment variables are now checked by the main "__init__.py" script:


BLC_WHEEL_PATH: If set as the path to a local pyluxcore wheel , this version ...

Hi,

I'll attmept to formulate my thoughts on this:

Firstly: When you are mentioning "different wavelengths refract differently", the only correct way is to compute with a wide spectrum of monochromatic rays - often labelled a "spectral rendering engine".
LuxCore's glass material has a spectral ...

I got back to this issue and figured it out:

Somehow my Git LFS installation was gone or not recognized anymore, and the WindowsCompileDeps were not downloaded fully.
