Please where in the code can I found the parameter responssible of the initial block size fading speed ?
(I mean the time it take for the initial large pixel block to disappear )

For CPU here: https://github.com/LuxCoreRender/BlendLuxCore/blob/d435660c798451c0de3f023d07b0721ddbeccdf5/export ...

This is a known issue/todo, more here: https://github.com/LuxCoreRender/BlendL ... -744914182

I think I added support for object-level holdout like in the screenshot below at some point, but I'm not totally sure:

It doesn't seem right to me to make plastic objects with glass material.

My advice is to use what looks right. The shaders are not restricted to simulate only the real-world materials they were named after.
For example, in the real world many substances that look like glass are actually plastics ...

python3 pyluxcoretools.zip

python pyluxcoretools.zip

I think that's meant for OSs where "python" means python 3, e.g. arch linux.

For sharp reflections, you can add a glossycoating material with low roughness.

A basic proxy system can be implemented in an exporter. Export the mesh to disk as .ply and replace it with a simplified version in the 3d program. Then on export time, don't convert the simplified mesh, but load the .ply from disk instead.

However, VRay proxies are more advanced as far as I know ...

Looking good like always!

Looking good!

There's a special AOV with anti-aliased material IDs, I think it's called MATERIAL_ID_COLOR.

The best thing though would be to have cryptomatte, but that's not implemented in LuxCore so far.
