The OIDN standalone binary is not required by LuxCore, only by the addon, so it would make no sense to put it into the LuxCore archives.
Of course, they will be included in the releases of the addon.

Another demo, this time with Sharlybg's Nakagin Capsule scene, comparing to a 1000 sample reference render at the end:

I think, something is wrong with Avg. Shading Normal pass, and it reduces the effectiveness of OIDN.
In ASN pass three out of six faces of a cube become black.
I uploaded a simple test scene, and some images (ASN pass, combined, denoiser artifacts enlarged).

Normals have values between -1.0 and 1.0. If you are mapping the values in a .png file, you will get half of the values as black. It is the expected behavior but Oidn gets the right values (-1.0 to 1.0) in floating point format as it requires.

Thank you for such a wonderful tool!

Now I want to provide my tests. This is a comparison between the BCD and OIDN in my animation project. This is a test for the suitability of the OIDN for animation.
In parentheses, I indicated the rendering time of each frame.

I've done a lot of tests on this scene for the best BCD settings for animation. It is configured in the best way possible.

As a result, I would like to note that OIDN does not only provide higher rendering speed.
OIDN also shows more small details.
In my opinion, where a BCD requires rendering to the noise level of 10,OIDN will show the same result at the noise level of 15.

Now I have a chance to finish this project.
The only thing left to do is to solve the noise issue behind the architectural glass.
There are a lot of shots in my project where the glass is close up.

Here's the results archive:

E-Cycles switch to OIDN to. The War has begun ! :twisted:

I'm aware of the problem with Oidn and ArchGlass. It is a problem very specific of the way material "transparency" work and interact with ALBEDO AOV.

To alleviate the problem, you can reduce the ArchGlass reflection parameter, more you reduce, less noise you will have in ALBEDO AOV and better Oidn will work.

Yeah, it worked. Thank you!
