If only I could convince my Supervisor of that!?

Anyway, up next is updating the Shader nodes and writing the Shader export. Since Mitsuba doesnt support per-triangle shader assignment, then I will probably have to redo the .serialized code so that it groups triangles by Shader.

So, instead of one .serialized file with all the meshes for a scene. It will probably be one .serialized file per mesh, with the mesh broken down per Shader inside in the .serialized file.

I created a folder called Mitsuba_cpp. I do not know how to create a branch in a Mercurial repository ..:(. If anyone can do it, we can better for separate the data from both exporter, to avoid confusion for users. Or maybe, create an new repository.
Go to work..

The point list is not unique the way I’m reading them, which screws up the triangle point indexes which are unique. The reason is, I was reading each triangle, instead of asking the mesh for its data collections.

Sooo…I will end up having to do multiple loops. Good part is, Mitsuba is loading the serialized file so far, but crashing on creating the index list.

So..almost there.

The good part is, the SI Object model exposes all the data as an object, so I only have to iterate over the collection once and I have access to everything I need for export: normal, position, index, UV, vertex color.

For the optional data (UV, VertexColor), I’m still considering some methods to determine if that data is defined at the Mesh level, without evaluating each point on the Mesh.

Thank you for including files CMakeList.txt. That made ​​things easier for me.
Another issue almost resolved, the notice of incompatibility with my old NVidia, not occur if the scene includes point lights or spotlights. Only fault with IBL lights. :)
Greetings…

Thanks a lot for your reply – it takes a load off my mind!

Thank you for this great renderer. I am a hobbyist and am looking for a good renderer for animations. I have great hopes from Mitsuba. :-)

Keep up the good work.

Regards
Anurup

thank you for reporting this. It turns out that my Fedora build machine accidentally did not include this file in the RPM :(.

This is fixed now, and it will be included in the next version which will be released in a few days. If you don’t want to wait for that, you can also directly compile Mitsuba from source — it’s not very hard on Fedora, and it’s described in the documentation.

Cheers,
Wenzel

I recently heard of Mitsuba and have been trying to sink my teeth into it. Ran into a problem trying to use the Blender exporter. The command line output says .dae has been exported successfully, but then it says “/usr/bin/mtsimport” not found.

For the life of me I cannot find this binary anywhere. I am on Fedora 17 x86_64 and installed Mistuba from http://www.mitsuba-renderer.org/releases/current/fc17/. (Installed both files just to be sure).

I am probably missing something elementary, but I would be grateful if someone could help. I believe I have searched around enough before asking this question here.

Thanks in advance.
