Re: V-Ray/Blender 2.5

Hi,
Maybe some issues, could anyone confirm?

Lens shift
Lens shift on Portrait images looks different from blender viewport. In landscape or square images it works perfectly.
Example:

Camera Loop
Camera loop is not working, when its on and press render it gives this error in terminal:

V-Ray/Blender: Writing scene...
V-Ray/Blender: Error! No cameras selected for "Camera loop"!

Regards!

I've used autobuild script provided by bdancer.
There is already a tutorial on this:
Compiling using autobuild: https://github.com/bdancer/vb25-patch/wiki/autobuild
Manual Compiling: https://github.com/bdancer/vb25-patch/wiki/compilation
To generate the installer I've just installed NSIS and described in the link above and used the option "-a" in the "python build.py" command.

...and only lack a version for linux 64bits and win 64bits

I'm having some issues with win64 compilation specific with ffmpeg and libavcodec libs.
About linux build, in the next few days I'll post it.

The exporter right now is not compatible with Vray 2.00 maya2012 stand alone Demo. right?

As I know Maya version doesn't matter because standalone are the same, just the exporter is different but we don't use maya exporter.
I think it should work.

There is a control in camera's UI to use this camera in camera loop.

I'm silly, it seems that it works. Just had to change the resolution to 600x450 which is the maximum allowed by the Demo xD
Thanks.

Re: V-Ray/Blender 2.5

i watched the fxphd vray 101 tutorial . and vray has mesh lights. and you can also use textures on mesh lights.

i downloaded the exporter today and mesh lights dont work. mesh lights dont need global illumination. they are lights created from blenders mesh. and if htey have UV you can add textures.

how come mesh lights never work? is the problem that blender.org always changes smoething when they update blender?

Re: V-Ray/Blender 2.5

Object panel -> Light works fine for me; texture is taken from object's material.
