LuxRender 0.8-dev Windows build of 23-01-2011

There's so maaaany Studio and Poser models that use map-driven microdisplacement to add all kinds of interesting detail, it's just not funny any more.

As jeanphi said above either do it directly, or download the new luxblend (regular or 25) exporters. You can find an updated regular luxblend here. Under the regular subdivision options you you can now select microdisplacement instead of loop.

Hi,

I thought syndaryl was using DAZ Studio or Poser.

Hah... reading isn't that easy early in the morning

My point was more general though in a sense as luxblend got support after I posted these binaries.

[syndaryl]

I jump back and forth between Studio and Blender 2.49 and blender 2.5* flavor of the week so the situation is a little confusing. Gets worse when I Frankenstein together the .lx* files from two programs together so I can set up things that work better in Blender directly in blender

Sorry maybe im off topic,

i have a question.Is there an option like Skip-Geometry Export in luxblend (like in the latest luxmax) that i cant find, so as to use when i do some material testing and i dont want the same geometry export and export all the time?

Switch off the "lxo" button in the bottom right-hand corner.

Alternatively you can activate "export ply" in the System tab, export it once. Then afterwards you can enable "partial export". This will enable you to transform (move/rotate etc) and change the material of the object without re-exporting the mesh. Note that you can't change modifiers as that will require exporting the mesh again. You'll need to enable the "lxo" button for this to work.

Thanks for the replies!

Hi Lord,

the build is working fine for me. thanks.

off topic:
is it possible to implement the flm so that it save the gamma info and the used cfrs file?

I was fairly certain it did save this... are you sure it doesn't?
