Changes since last stable release (on the 2.80 port, not including 2.79 maintenance): blendluxcore_v2.1...blendluxcore_v2.2

On Windows, you have to install the following:

Blender 2.80

This release includes builds for Blender 2.80. They can be found in the asset list at the bottom, containing "blender2.80" in their names. These builds are not as stable and bug-free as the ones for Blender 2.79, but on the other hand they contain more features than the 2.79 builds.

Note that in Blender 2.80, you can not use the auto-updater in the addon preferences to update from v2.2beta3 to v2.2beta4 or later. From v2.2beta4 on it should work.

Known Issues

Known issues that will be fixed in the future:

  • When using Cycles nodes, nested node groups are not supported
  • Cycles light settings are not being used
  • Unit scale is currently handled like in Cycles (i.e. ignored)
  • When adding nodes to a Cycles node tree while LuxCore is selected as render engine, most nodes in the "shader" category are not available. You'll have to switch to Cycles, add the nodes and then switch back.

Reporting Bugs

If you find any bugs, problems, weird UI arrangements, missing tooltips etc. that are not on the list above, please open an issue in our bugtracker: https://github.com/LuxCoreRender/BlendLuxCore/issues/new

Info

Compared to the builds for Blender 2.79 they are still a bit unstable. It is recommended not to use them in production.
