Changelog:
3.4.9
* Fixed light layers not working properly in console.
* Fixed a problem where to UI would go into a state where you can't close or open when a non-existent scene file was opened.
* Fixed reflection shading normal effect for glossy transparent.
* Added cull_geometry option to section planes (and made it available in the UI).

An example of culling on versus culling off on section planes:
section_plane_room_culling.png
Culling on. The geometry behind the section plane is removed. Light from the outside is not blocked (because the geometry was actually removed).
section_plane_room_no_culling.png
Culling off. The geometry behind the section plane is not removed but ignored for eye rays coming from behind the section plane. Light isn't able to pass through.

It already is implemented :)
It will be available after 3.4 stable is done.

culling on versus culling off on section planes
I've been waiting for this since a long time...

Can you suggest the syntax for my exporter?

Thank you!

Code: Select all

 <section_plane>
    <point>3 0 0</point>
    <normal>-1 0 0</normal>

    <cull_geometry>false</cull_geometry>
  </section_plane>

Thank you,

Do you think that, in the future, this flag will be available for normal meshes ? (e.g. planes)

I've been waiting for this since 4 years ago... see this post!

Ortho rendering still sometimes gives unexplained transparent materials... Will post a screenshot to demonstrate in a bit!

Awesome, just realized the "sensor width" option in Indigo UI is like the "zoom" when using Ortho :D

On a sidenote, what is the correct way to use Exit Portals with Clipping? If they intersect the walls they light up the cavity which seems like a waste of CPU power.

You have certainly thought of that since, culling geometry sounds like the best option to take with portals. It will allow the hidden walls to project their shadow onto the portals, as opposed to ressource intensive rays.
