Re: Crash with small spread angles

Hi, thanks for explaination. I think I got it, but one more question occurs. - you have 30 triangle light sources with an area of about 10^-9 (i.e. very very small); To generate this light source I simply made a "Circle" in Blender and filled it afterwards. In Blender GUI it looks like a s...

Re: Ever lasting render

Hello,

This is one of those milky materials I like to use in lux core as well as lux render. Even 1mm of this occurs like a white opaque plastic if you have done almost even environment illumination around it.

Re: Ever lasting render

Hi, Thanks for effort. You're right the image looks identical on a first glance... what is about the energy conservation? Could one check the amount of energy in that scene? Is there any rule that describes that this material thickness and this scattering value requires multi scattering? I'll contin...

Re: Ever lasting render

Hi, I'm a bit surprised that you want to use that simple scene but yes, feel free to use it. Do you need anything else or is the *.blend file enough? Thanks for your detailed explaination. My approach is to keep the physical correctness in the result. In real world diffuse media show multiple scatte...

Ever lasting render

Hi, I've seen lots of nice renders of prisms in the different forum topics, so I tried to do one on my own. Since a mesh source with small spread is not working (see: https://forums.luxcorerender.org/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=87 ) I used a spot with narrow spread. The major difference that I wanted to...

Crash with small spread angles

Hi, if I decrease the spread angle of a light source below 20 degrees, blender crashes after starting rendering. Spread_Angle.JPG This is the console message: Read blend: C:\Users\Martin\Downloads\MyPrism.blend init exporter init exporter init create_session [SDL][15.366] Camera type: perspective [S...

Re: Windows: Can't enable addon in latest Blender

Hi I see that tbbmalloc.dll was added which is not included in BlendLuxCore/bin, maybe that's the problem. I'll add it to the package script and re-upload the Windows zips. edit: done. Can you check again if it works now when you only download the BlendLuxCore zip? It's working: Works.JPG Thank you....

Re: Windows: Can't enable addon in latest Blender

Hi, just downloaded the vcredist that you've recommended. The setup say that it is already installed, so I've used the repair function but that doesn't show any effect. Additionally I've downloaded the standalone version - the luxcoreui.exe starts without any errors. Unfortunatly I've no scene to te...
