I suspect there are other core diferences that help LuxCore achieve a higher level of realism. Even in scenes without caustics and volumetric scattering the overall illumination and/or the way colored metals are reproduced (for example) are significantly more realistic. There is something in the ...

You could try to compile from sources but it may be complicate if you have no experience with compiling tools. Isn't the same service available with Windows ?

The next, under compilation, build should work fine with Blender v3.0. The source of the problem is a broken NumPy version used to compile Blender.

We have a workaround for that problem but it required to rollback a patch for a minor bug. It should effect only people exporting scene in text format ...

I should have fixed this problem. The next automatic build will include the fix.

Python "Save()" is like C++/Python "SaveOutputs()". It is an old deprecated method replaced by the new one. You can define in the RenderConfig (or the .cfg) the list of outputs/AOVs to save.

You can use "SaveOutput()" (note the lack of "s") to explicitly define a file name to save.

But one this I am not able to solve is internal reflections of diamonds. Online while checking tutorials and renders, I noticed that the diamonds weren't reflecting the ground material at all. They have their own crystal reflections but no ground/floor reflections.
In my case, if I put a blue ...

I think not yet.

Will I need to use the C++ API reference document for Python pyLuxcore ? seems the latest C++ document version is 2.1 ?
(Sorry I don't have enough C++ experience)


Documentation is imbedded in C++ header source code (inside comments): https://github.com/LuxCoreRender/LuxCore/blob ...

OBJECT_ID_MASK AOV provide a black/white mask (with anti-aliasing) you can use in a composer to replace an object with anything you want

So can I use the same guide document and script to compile against 2.7 on windows?
Because seems the parameters are all 3.x


You may have to edit the compiling script: https://github.com/LuxCoreRender/WindowsCompile/blob/aaf63569e8aae64fa0d6dc389fa09b293370e743/cmake-build-x64.bat#L18
