Trying out the BlendLuxCore v2.0beta2 add-on.
Background image is not loading to the Camera-Tonemapper-Settings-Background Image.

Is there a warning or error message?
Can you upload a test scene?

Confirming the issue.
Code: Select all
BackgroundImgPlugin kernel compilation error
& a screenshot from console
Open, just start IPR or render (f12)
windows 7, b2.79b, luxcore2beta2
Also, if transparent film is activated image is extremely overexposed - to set to
normal Sun&Sky gain is lowered to 0.01.
BTW, settings are present & still active in the attached scene.

It is a just a bug introduced with the workaround for long NVIDIA compilation times. It happens when LuxCore try to compile some image pipeline plugin OpenCL kernel. It fails due to the lack of some definition related to the NVIDIA workaround. It should be fixed here:
https://github.com/LuxCoreRender/LuxCor ... 4fb01393c7
A simple workaround would be to just run the image pipeline on the CPU in C++ instead of OpenCL however I'm afraid the option is not exposed by LuxBlend. So the only other workaround possible, without recompiling from the sources, would be to export the scene in LuxCore file format and than run LuxCoreUI for the rendering (where you can disable OpenCL image pipeline).
