All right.. SSS don't work on 2.0.1 exporter version atm. Only wings3d 1.5.4 + thebounty rc4 + old exporter.
I'm re-writing all 'modulators' code.

Just to be clear...

Wings3D 1.5.4 + thebounty rc4 + old exporter is not working for me...

Thanks,

povmaniac,
I finally got back to this and was finally able to get Wings3D 1.5.4 + thebounty + old exporter to work for me.

I had to start a new file from scratch, since my example scenes would not work.

The only file that makes a difference in rendering sss is libyafaraycore.dll

Below is a comparison with the first image showing "TheBounty" using build date version 3-29-15 and the second image showing TheBounty build date version 5-12-15. The only thing I changed in the two renders is the version of libyafaraycore.dll used.

SSS worked better in the older version. The scene has a spot light in front of and behind the monkey.

Thanks,
oort

Yes, it is different but .. ¿ have not you noticed that now the render is more rapid??
I have introduced some changes for improved SSS processes...

I just did a test with the Jade Dragon from my website. Yes it is much faster... 25 seconds with the new version (5-12-15) compared to 2 minutes and 39 seconds in the old version (3-29-15).

I hope you can get the quality back to what it was in the old version. I have tried changing all kinds of settings but nothing has helped... I am not seeing the SSS anymore...

Thanks,

Maybe you need review their values. The new code work fine here..

povmaniac,
Could you please post an example scene with the blender monkey. Then I can compare to see what setting I need to change. I have tried every possible setting without any improvement...

Thanks,

Do you mean start the GUI application from wings3D?

[povmaniac]

Yes. This part is easy, it is only necessary to change 'yafaray-xml.exe' for 'thebounty-gui.exe' in the options of render. But maybe I refer that is need extend the Gui options before implemented.
