Exporter with all materials and Microdisplacement

Postby donjuan » Fri Jun 29, 2012 12:27 pm

I have finished some minor changes over the last approved exporter.

It includes Displacement Maps and incorporates materials Velvet and Carpaints.

Displacement maps has only a defect at the time: it needs a texture to be defined in SketchUp in order to make effect (because the exporter only exports the uv maps when a texture is present; I saw a modification in this sense, so may be it may be integrated with this).

I don't know how to integrate changes. May be someone can compare this files with the ones of the last exporter to extract the simple aggregates I made. I guess the changes were made over the "su2lux-01b211b80c2b"

I posted a previous version of displacement maps with some minor bugs, which are fixed in this version.

Ideally mimhotep would come in here with a helpful solution but he mentioned not having any time to spare. I'll send him a message to ask if he would be willing to have a look though.

And I got a response, he is extremely busy this week but expects to have time to integrate the changes after that. :)

Hi everybody,
I finally found some time to push the changes to the repository.
I made some small modification in order to fix some minor glitches, but it should work.

Please note that support for added material is still basic and incomplete - advanced settings are not available for customization, yet.

Enjoy!
Happy rendering

hi! thanks for enthusiasm of keeping this event alive.
are there any plans for clip mapping and ior for glossy materials. seems current exporter lacks only them to become fully usable.
also could you specify what version of lux render is supported by exporter on this moment.

It also lacks mix materials, layered ones, glossy coating and metal2,
other kind of lights, and volume management...

but the most important thing to me, is the preview.
If I had some time I could collaborate, but it's not the case right now.
