Can blendluxcore 2.3 beta1 be recompiled to include this fix so it easier for render farm to isntall the new build ?

We should release v2.3beta2 very soon.

That is some quite strange error, may be, there is a problem in your Linux installation.

This is what i'm doing now: git clone https://github.com/LuxCoreRender/LinuxCompile.git cd LinuxCompile git clone https://github.com/LuxCoreRender/LuxCore.git LuxCore-opencl ./build-64-sse2 LuxCore-opencl cd LuxCore-opencl rm CMakeCache.txt cmake -DPYTHON_LIBRARY=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython...

Thanks, it looks good, this fix may also have some unexpected implication like fixing the light tracing brightness variation on animations has been reported few times: light tracing is normalized by the total count of photons traced and if the total is wrong, the total brightness will be wrong too. ...

But the values I see there are not comparable with the results I had with 2.3 from yesterday, I mean there as you improve cores you get some kind of improvement, but in my yesterday tests I went into negative performance, I mean: 16 threads: 6:00 64 threads: 6:40 Before the patch, LuxCore was rende...

You should try to move one around ... you will change your mind

My first SiliconGraphics had a 40+Kg CRT monitor ... it was intimidating and required a couple of people to be moved around

Awesome, I'll be attentive to this commit to test it :) I have merged the new code with the main branch and it is now included in the daily build. This the result of the work on a dual socket Xeons with 40 cores and 80 threads (i.e. hyper-threading), kindly lend me by a company interested in using ...

It would be possible to develop a LuxCore shape like that (i.e. like displacement, etc.) to pre-process geometries however it would be a bit cumbersome without seeing the end result directly in Blender wire-frame view-port.

You need the name the the cloned LuxCore repository "LuxCore-opencl" (not "LuxCore") otherwise it will be built without OpenCL support.
