Finally fixed the problem with the export of subdivided surfaces. No more tricks ..
Now, the subdivision is performed in Luxrender, thereby, the exported files are smaller.

Hi,

Great to see this plugin improve some more. Is it v0.8 ready? Should we package it with the release?

Hi jeanphi..
I'm putting the finishing touches to publish the new version of LuXSI, in format "addon. " In fact, we just need to include binary LuxRender Final Release 0.8 (now includes LuxRender 0.8 RC4).
My plans are;
- Publish a "thread" in this section of the forum, with a download link for the "addon", also bound; http://www.luxrender.net/en_GB/softimage_xsi. The link currently points to a previous version and very different from the latest enhancements.

Thanks for your work on LuXSI (and now Yafaray export for Softimage, too). Finally bundling it as an addon will make it available to guys like me who can't compile a single line of c code for their lives!

P.S.: I hope the addon will contain both x86 and x64 versions...

[povmaniaco]

The work continues, renovation of the shaders and code optimization. Soon, we will have some improvements to publish a small package and see if the update system works well.

should we wait for x64?

[debris]

Yes, this missing x64 compilation is the thing that stands between me and all your great work now!
Same goes for your Yafaray plugin work.

I guess 90% of all 3D guys use x64 these days...

Thanks again for your developments, helps spreading the word about Softimage!

New LuXSI implementations;
- geometry for light area (wip).
- Use of IES files.
