I have posted an updated version that should fix a problem that would happen when the plugins path has "_" in the folder name. No more Image Handler errors should happen as long as the "Plugins Path" is set in the YafaRay Options Dialog.

I have posted an updated version of the YafaRay plugin on my website.
I discovered that Spot Light Angle was not being exported. This has been fixed. I also added two Spot Light settings that were missing... Blend and Fuzzyness.
The Help information for Material Object Properties and Lights has been updated.
Ambient Lights now default to Constant instead of None.
oort
When I changed the default for Ambient Light Background from None to Constant, I introduced a bug (Infinite Light Dialog crashing). Not worth the extra time to make it that way so I have switched the default back to None.
The updated plugin is on my website.
Sorry if you already installed the buggy version...

I discovered that the Background Color under YafaRay Render Options was lighting the scene, when it should not. Add an Ambient light and set Background to Constant and enable Enlight to light the scene with a Background color. Enlight is now disabled by default.
The updated plugin is on my website.

I feel like I am playing the whack-a-mole game...
Changing the default for Enlight to disabled, caused the Samples setting to be disabled in the Ambient light dialog when Enlight is enabled. I have fixed the bug and updated the plugin on my website.

Hello,
I've released the new YafaRay v3.0.0-beta, and I'm willing to help with the Wings3d plugin (as much as time allows!)
I would like to know what is the current status of the plugin, who is maintaining it at the moment (oort?), where is the source code and (very important to me) where is the plugin license information (is it released as GPL, LGPL or other type of license?)
Thanks and best regards
David,
Glad you are interested in working on the YafaRay plugin. I used to keep it updated but my free time is very limited lately...
The version on my website is only for Wings 1.x.x builds and not Wings 2.x.x builds.
Micheus has been making all the latest changes for us. The source code is included with the latest Wings3D 2.x.x source code. It is under the same license as Wings3D, since it is part of the Wings3D source code.
I noticed today that you have released the new YafaRay v.3.0.0 beta. I hope to try it soon. I still hope you will add SSS to your build of YafaRay.
Edit: P.S. I have tried to maintain compatibility with each new release of the plugin and Micheus has continued to do so. A scene that works with an older version of the plugin will work with the newest version of the plugin. That way, example files or any persons files do not have to be modified to work with a new version of the plugin. This has not been completely possible but every attempt was made to do so. I hope you can do the same. There are several example files at the bottom of my Wings3D page.
Thanks,
oort
This info is for anyone who wants to play with the latest release of YafaRay, when you do Edit > Plugin Preferences > YafaRay to configure the plugin, you will need to add "-pbp none" (without quotes) to the Options line.
oort
I found the need to set "-pbp none" is caused by a bug in YafaRay v3.0.0. It will be fixed in the upcoming v3.0.1
Where to find this v3 for download?
I checked the Yafaray download page and the GraphicAll.org, but nothing.
