If so you can easily edit the camera controls.

Question: Anyone having issues with textures not appearing despite being referenced in the XML?

indeed that was the problem (actually I had boost, just 1.38, after upgrading to 1.40 it went on).

I managed to successfully build Mitsuba after some additional annoyances with glew libraries. Now it’s time to dig into the manual and the program itself :)

Cheers!

this error message is a bit misleading since it could also mean that you’re missing the BOOST libraries. Perhaps the error message in “config.log” may be helpful.

I can’t compile Mitsuba on Ubuntu 9.10 64 bit, it fails to recognize the compiler which is definitely installed. How could I fix this?

scons: Reading SConscript files …
Checking for Qt 4.x… yes
Checking for g++ …no
Could not compile a simple C++ fragment, verify that g++ is installed!

In the meanwhile, you could use the Visual C++ builds provided by users on blenderartists.org.

I have a AMD and i am unable to test it.

Thanks any way, great Job Wenzel!

* Append Blender’s build configuration so that it compiles with COLLADA support which depends on OpenCOLLADA libraries and header files, which I also had to compile from SVN and install.
* When copying the add-on to Blender’s scripts/addons directory you must copy the entire ‘mitsuba’ folder, not what is inside the folder.
* You have to enable the addon in the blender preferences, select ‘Mitsuba’ as the render engine, and then in the Render Properties, set the executable path to the folder that Mitsuba is in.
* It also only seems to work if you execute blender from the command line.

Mitsuba should appear in the dropdown for render engines, right? Still isn’t working(it isn’t showing at all), although I’m on OS X 10.6.5, and using Blender build 2.55 r33269.

If anyone with a similar setup gets it working, let me know.

Jakob, you need a tip jar on your website and I hope your thinking about marketing Mitsuba. It looks to be shaping up nicely and I’d gladly pay market price for a good, integrated renderer for Blender.

Cheers!

There’s no directions included with it and typically you simply place a plugin in the Blender scripts folder, but this isn’t working for me.

I have a recent(yesterday) blender build from Graphicall.

Je suis un utilisateur de blender de longue date et je salue l’arrivée de toutes ces belles nouveautés. Je crois qu’il serait souhaitable de partir dans la voie de l’intégration total du moteur dans l’interface de blender à la manière de yafray 009 à l’époque. Cela positionnerait ainsi, immédiatement le moteur comme une des meilleures solutions de rendering de Globale illumination disponible actuellement pour blender. Et de faciliter encore de système de rendu réseau avec une détection automatique des nodes un peu comme “modo” ou le génial “loki render”
Encore bravo..

Pressing “a” frames all objects in the scene. Pressing “f” frames the selected object, vertices, faces or edges. (doesn’ t seem to apply to mitsuba as I don’ t think there is a way to select and object/vertex/face..)

Then for general navigation this is what is set as default :
Alt+Left click rotates the camera around the object.
Alt+Right and/or mouse wheel click to dolly.
Alt+Middle click pans the camera.

I’m looking forward to get more documentation. Your piece of software is really promising ! I’m already dreaming of voxel fluids export from Houdini and Maya to mitsuba :)

An uninformed counter-question: what do you like about Maya navigation? The fact that you can rotate around a certain center point? How do you usually navigate through your scenes in Maya?
