LuxRender v0.6 Release Candidate 1 - Windows/Linux/MacOSX

[Radiance]

I've added this to my list of stuff for RC2, we need to make the alpha stuff a bit more intuitive.

Great, thanks to every developer!

The tooltip for every slider in the noise-red section says "Gamma value" but I guess that's another fraction of the 0.01 %

The problems with pasting textures in luxblend seems to be gone.

Indeed, tooltips is on our todo list for RC2.

Hi,

This is most probably because of the premultiplyalpha option which is now honored. Just go to the output tab of luxblend and deselect the option.

You're right! Now with the option disabled, it works! Thanks

it's looking fantastic and works very nice.

Thanks for the new build, that's great.
I'm on OSX 10.5.6 (Intel) and Blender 2.48. I have a little problem with the material's preview. Here's the message from the console:

Thanks for your help.

can you try placing "/Volumes/oui/Applications/3D/Blender/Blender Scripts/LuxBlend_v0.6RC1.py" in a path without " " space in it and see if it persists ?

[psychotron]

wouldn't be in stable v0.6 opinion tu completly turn off some light group?
or if some group goes off it would mess up image??

[Bupla]

Thanks Radiance for your help, I tried without spaces in the directories but I have the same message. I tried with all the type of materials in LuxBlend and with all the materials of my scene.
