parameters the material preset menu won't be as useful. Both glass presets will look the same because there is no 'filter' parameter in the old yafray for instance. So using the new Blender version with an old yafray version should work a bit better, though the other way around, using the new yafray with an old blender version, will generally not work as well. I added a few extra things. In 'yafray' panel re-arranged some buttons, and added a new button 'Clamp RGB'. This button will be enabled by default and helps to improve AA on high contrast edges in the image. When using bokeh however, it is best to switch this off, otherwise lens shaped highlights will be quite a bit less visible. Changed the 'extinction' parameter name to the probably more correct term 'absorption', though mathematically it works out the same. Also changed the behaviour of this color, it no longer specifies a color that will be removed as I wrote in the previous commit, but instead the actual color at one (blender) unit of distance. The 'Ds' (distance scale) button below the color sliders controls the scaling of this unit distance. What this means is that if you take the standard blender cube, which covers two units of distance by default, setting the distance scale button to 2.0 will make sure that the color you specified is exactly that color at that distance (provided the base color itself is white of course, or 'filter' is 0, otherwise it will be filtered by the base color too). Beyond this distance the color will get darker. The glow option for point/soft/sphere lights has a new parameter 'GloOfs', or glow offset. Setting this to a higher value then 0 will soften the central peak of the glow. Another unreported bug fix: For xml export, when yafray failed to render the xml file for some unknown reason, or because of other problems, the export code would still load the previously rendered image, this causes problems however if the image resolution is not the same as the current Blender buffer, and so could cause memory corruption or crashes. This is now taken into account. World image backgrounds now use the blender mapping settings as well, but only the 'AngMap', 'Sphere' and 'Tube' settings. But in yafray those last two, unlike Blender, cover the whole view, not just the upper half, so is not really fully compatible with yafray. So now you have to set one of these buttons too when loading a hdr lightprobe image. btw, something I forgot to mention in previous commits is that the exposure control using the texture brightness slider is no longer restricted to integer values. It is now a floating point value, so you're not restricted to the 0 1 and 2 slider positions anymore, anything in between will work too. And finally, display updating is now more like Blender, using the mouse cursor as frame counter for animation, etc. |

Welcome to the fun world of open source. For instructions on building and installing Blender, please see the file named INSTALL. ---------------------.Blanguages and the .blender directory--------------------- The .blender directory holds various data files for Blender. In the 2.28a release those are the .Blanguages file containing a list of translations, the translations themselves and a default ttf font. Blender checks for the presence of this directory in several locations: - the current directory - your home directory - On OSX, the blender bundle is also checked - On Windows, the installation dir is checked. If you get a 'File ".Blanguages" not found' warning, try to copy the .blender dir to one of these locations (your home directory being recommended). -------------------------------------Links-------------------------------------- Getting Involved: http://www.blender.org/docs/get_involved.html Community: http://www.blender3d.org/Community/ Main blender development site: http://www.blender.org/ The Blender project homepage: http://projects.blender.org/projects/bf-blender/ Documentation: http://www.blender.org/modules.php?op=modload&name=documentation&file=index Bug tracker: http://projects.blender.org/tracker/?atid=125&group_id=9&func=browse Feature request tracker: http://projects.blender.org/tracker/?atid=128&group_id=9&func=browse
