Re: render and viewport show different results

Sorry for that, I meant that there might have been one camera with some settings active in the viewport, and another one in the same place to be used in the render view. One camera renders the viewport, and the other one renders the render view. But if this seems irrelevant to you as stated in the p...

Re: Mapping hdr file to area light

Thanks a lot for the answer
I guess Multiple Importance Sampling work with this type of setup too ?

Re: render and viewport show different results

Not sure about what I did I messed around with the layers, changed the color management according to what's on the screenshot At first I had the same problem as you do, but everything went fine in the end. Your cameras may be overlapping, I really can't tell actually as I am a total newbie to LuxCor...

Mapping hdr file to area light

Hey everyone
I'm a newcomer to LuxCore and I appear to have a question
Is there a way to add a hdr or exr texture file to an area light to get more interesting lighting/reflections from these ?
This could be used to mimick softboxes for instance
Thanks in advance for your answer
Cheers

Re: render and viewport show different results

Then I have no clue about what might be going on.
Just to illustrate my point here's a screenshot of my own viewport using the settings I mentionned.
Unless my eyes are fooling me everything seems to be in order.

Re: render and viewport show different results

Hey Faced the same problem, I think I solved the problem by setting the camera tonemapper to Linear with a value of 1, unchecking Auto Brightness and using Blender's tonemapping settings instead, just as Charles did in his Food scene. I don't know if this is the most correct workflow as I'm pretty n...

Re: I have a problem to install 2.1alpha4

Hey everyone
Had the same problem here, installed the Intel redistributable yesterday, everything was fine after restarting Blender.
This morning I had the same warning message as yours coming back.
I had to repair Intel's redistributable installation to have Luxcore working again.
Hope this helps
