LuxMaya 0.6RC

Postby dougal2 » Mon Apr 20, 2009 5:15 pm

Find attached latest progress. This RC release brings a lot of the materials, textures and some render settings up to date (as of a few weeks ago) with Lux itself.

Noticably, you'll see that the database stuff isn't finished. Lampspectrum texture is missing. And perhaps some other things are missing too, I never got to the bottom of the list of changes.

Hopefully _everyone_ who has been using LuxMaya 0.5 will grab and use this instead; it might be a bit short of the mark for Lux 0.6, but it's way better than the old 0.5 series stuff.

Well, have fun, report problems etc and I hope to find time eventually to make LuxMaya 100% Lux 0.6 compatible.

Should this also be posted/added on wiki/download page?
Cheers!

@poncho: not yet please, it's likely to contain a few bugs still

@radiance: I don't think I did update the presets yet.

i don't have maya myself, do let's see what dougal2 asks.
i can easily see what's wrong if you send me the luxrender files generated.

The entire contents of the main scene file is
Code: Select all
PixelFilter "gaussian"
   "float xwidth" [2.000000]
   "float ywidth" [2.000000]
   "float alpha" [2.000000]

Sampler "halton"

SurfaceIntegrator "bidirectional"
   "integer eyedepth" [8]
   "integer lightdepth" [8]

Accelerator "kdtree"


so no wonder it's not doing anything.

However, I'm not so sure how this could be generated... clearly not all the necessary scene elements (notably, the lookat/camera) are being exported.
I'll have a look at your Maya file here, but also check that you installed LuxMaya proplerly too.
