Re: dark juice

@ lacilaci
The asymmetry 0 does not make caustics at all (it's like candle wax). Juice is around 0.9

Re: Computer for Luxcorerender

Yes, seems like even the new Blender 2.8 is very CPU hungry when there are thousands of objects. When i CPU render on 14 threats and keep 2 free, the Blender ui is 1 - 3 fps with your scene, sometimes 3 - 8 fps, that at 4k with GTX 970. But when CPU is 100% free for Blender ui, the fps is 60 (my mon...

Re: Light tracing and pool

Switching to PathCPU+PGI things are slow but steady, but firefllies take too long to disappear and some are very strong and don't disappear at all. Also there are some dark artefacts in the underwater caustics and the shadows appear too dark. About dark shadows and reinhard tonemapping in luxcoreui...

Re: Windows build deps

Should it help keeping all deps updated to latest versions? I actually don't know myself, if vcpkg is better or not for luxcore. It sure built all the dependencies that build-deps-x64.bat failed to build. Even so, if i had all the deps built, i got over 1900 errors by just manual copy paste new lib...
