Cornell box comparison : PovRay vs. YafaRay vs. Kerkythea

[micheus]

I did some more tests and evaluation on my PCs. I'm on Windows 10 and surely some update broke the Kerkythea startup with parameters:



Windows is reporting a app error, but the program starts OK in standalone mode.

oort told me he can run the program - although the rendered image fail to load with the same error code (-1073741819). He is on Windows 7

There were changed nothing for long time in this plugin. Also, all render plugins use the same module to run the command line and wait for the image be finished. So, there is no way to blame the plugin or Wings3D for this new behaviour.

I'm going to wait a little more to see if any Windows update put things right.
I just noticed there is a new update waiting I allow it to be installed 20H2.


Until there, we need to start Kerkythea standalone, export the file from Wings3D and load/merge on it - as I used to do and which I believe it's more productive.
