Changelog:

3.8.5
* Made alpha channel converge a bit faster on opaque objects with high ssf.
* Fixed problem with artifacts with foreground alpha and dof: http://www.indigorenderer.com/forum/vie ... 02#p127402
* Fixed OpenGL preview mismatch with render when lens shift was used.
* Drawing grey quads on outside of viewport in OpenGL preview.
* Substrate materials of Coating and DoubleSidedThin materials now use their own shading normals.

Attached below are a couple of materials using different shading normals on the coating substrate.

Cool Ono! Does the Voroni shader work now?
No time to test it...

Haven't fixed those materials yet.

Nice, please post these new mat's in the library s'il vous plait.

Bug: I can't continue a render from an igi if I'm on a pigs scene. Would like to be able to do that without unzipping the pigs. Thanks.

Thank you for the DOF fix!!

Nice release, I like the improved Alpha rendering A LOT! First tests are very promising...

I rendered the flaked paint a little bigger to see the effect:

The shader looks great, but is done by altering the thickness of the coating.
Actually a more realistic approach could be to set a (colored) box noise for the normal channel of the phong substrate.
Just an idea...

Sweet.
It actually does that already

Done for next release.

thanks Ono !

For scenes with loads of instances, could there be an option to group objects that reference the same mesh in the UI? The list gets very long with 1 000 000 instances!

Also, any sample ISL code for mesh scattering available?

Stupid me, totally missed that -.-'
Great stuff, need to test it on a car ;)

It seems Indigo isn't friend with the new Mac OS X 10.9.4 as it crashes every time saying it encountered the problem while using QtopenGL.

Did a test with 3.8.4 as it was working fine but it crashes as well.
Removing OpenGL preview is a bit better as it doesn't crash instantly but i can't even launch a render, it's crashing before i can do that ! :D

Perhaps a change in the way OpenGL is handled in 10.9.4 ?


Cheers,
Laurent aka Tartiflette. :)

Glad i didn't update then!
