BlendLuxCore
- Fresnel texture: "custom n,k" now accepts values > 1
- Change installation mechanism to use bpy.utils.extension_path_user() INCOMPLETE
- Include "OptiX" in addon settings label to avoid user questions about compatibility
- Added a workaround for a Blender bug that throws an error when Blender is closed
- Added a linux development shell script (optional utility for developers)
- Remove löeftover code from the Addons system that is no longer used with the Extensions system.
LuxCore
- Reduction of Boost footprint, replaced with standard equivalents available in C++20.
- For the need of previous point: replacement of apple-clang by clang 20 on MacOS platforms
- New target 'wheel-test' that builds a testing wheel in local build (
make wheel-test) - Requirement checking in
make deps - luxrays: rename GetConfigDir as GetCacheDir and use XDG_CACHE_HOME according to specifications (@illwieckz)
- Subdivision: add an "adaptive" setting to select between adaptive refinement and uniform refinement
LuxCoreDeps
- Dependencies updated to latest versions
- Removed a workaround introduced in previous version (we used to build a fake wheel to get containerization)
- OpenMP - MacOS: Use of homebrew OpenMP (up-to-date, compatible with clang 20) rather than Conan llvm-openmp (version 17...). As a consequence, for MacOS Intel, a version >= 13.0 is required.
- Opensubdiv: tbb activation. As a consequence, for MacOS Arm, a version >= 14.2 is required.
- OpenImageIO: deactivation of several image formats that seem unrelated to or unsupported by LuxCore: freetype, hdf5, ffmpeg, libheif, ptex, opencv, webp. This removal spares both compilation time and build result size. Those formats are reactivable, in case they were missing.
- OpenImageIO: To the contrary, activation of tbb option.
