Hey guys, Luxcore light group is a really amazing feature. I checked the blender luxcore verion tutorial, it seems the light group feature was implemented by composing different render outputs. However, i am not sure if this light group feature is also available in luxcore stand-alone version?since the DCC we developed now does not have a compositing function. i was afraid this light group feature require compositing funtion to work with it?
any help will be appreciated.(ps: i did not find any info about how to use light group in stand-alone version)

Yes Light group is integrated into Luxcore standalone.
The blender addon call functions from there to make it work.
As a proof Felixrender wich work with Luxcore now support Light group.

Btw will be nice to know a bit more about this DCC app. Why not ? top secret ;)

Do you work in Python or C++ ? LuxCoreUI (C++) code related to light groups is here: https://github.com/LuxCoreRender/LuxCor ... window.cpp (they are called "radiance groups" in LuxCore API).
