@galaxygallery wrote: As D5 Render is a realtime rendering software, we can use the free plugin D5 Converter-Blender to sync models, materials, cameras, lights or views from Blender to D5, and take a quick look at how the project will finally look at, which is quite efficient. Once we have the scene ready in D5, start grabbing assets from D5 Asset Library that includes 8000+ animated people, plants, particles, cars and decals. As D5 is also compatible with Quixel, so we have over 10,000 assets near at hand. Other handy features in D5 like one-click round corner, PBR texture import, AO&Out ..read more

My intention is to attempt a GPU-based simulator of liquids, one based on speed and versatility. It must export thru OpenVDB and have a modern and simple GUI. By the way, I do get that EmberGen is a thing, but that only does smoke and fire. This job is not paid, but you will get a developer’s credit on my website ..read more

@Drikus wrote: I’ve published a new free tutorial: How to create light layers in Blenders compositor In my example “light layers” are actually rendered images of all light sources in a 3D scene. Every rendering is representing a single light object, a light group or a complete world lighting. This technique is similar to light mixing techniques you may know from other software. The final rendered results will be used in Blenders compositor to control their light intensity and color. All your lighting adjustments will be updated in about real time. And because every image is already in high qu ..read more
