LuxRender 1.2-dev Windows build of 21-10-2012 (updated)

[Lord Crc]

Hellooo

I was inspired by Tom's work on the new cloth material, so I thought I'd make a new build so y'all can play with it. Keep in mind it's still under development so may be rough around the edges.

Dade has also done some fixing on the noise-aware code.

Update: keeping it fresh! Jeanphi made some fixes to cloth material which should reduce the most nasty fireflies, if you still get fireflies it should be "normal" fireflies due to the current sub-optimal sampling of the cloth material. I also added a fix for the --fixedseed flag, should work now with GUI, queues etc.

These builds contain LuxRender, LuxConsole, LuxMerger, SLG2 (OpenCL only), LuxBlend25 and Pylux for Blender 2.6x, and LuxBlend for Blender 2.49.
The NoOpenCL builds does not require any OpenCL driver or capabilities, but also does not use the GPU for the "hybrid" renderer.

Jeanphi managed to push some changes shortly after I posted this, so I did a quick rebuild and updated the post.

edit: tomb mentioned that jeanphi's latest cloth patch may have some issues, so in case anyone wants the builds without this patch they are still available here:

Made some new builds yesterday but was so tired I forgot to update this post. Better late than never

Sorry to post in here as well as the Linux thread, but any joy for us Mac bods? We always seem to get left behind...

[Lord Crc]

If I had a mac I'd make some builds but alas... hopefully JtheNinja or jens can whip something up soon

Sorry to post in here as well as the Linux thread, but any joy for us Mac bods? We always seem to get left behind...

Xcode decided to be a bitch to me and refuse to build Lux, so whenever Jens does one, I guess?

[tigerste]

Thanks both, I appreciate the difficulties, is kinda frustrating that everyone else tends to get the builds first hehe! I just wish Mac was easier to develop for
