TheBounty Renderer (rewrite for wxWidgets)

Report for Yafaray TheBounty in OSX 10.9.5
Although it took a little effort, I was allowed to work it.

At first ,get Yafaray 0.1.5 archive for OSX binaie version .
http://www.yafaray.org/download
http://www.jensverwiebe.de/Jens_Verwiebe/Software.html
Click "Zum Laden hier Klichen"
(I want tried it on 10.7.x,but doesn't work.)

It is assumed that the unarchived "yafaray" folder move to /Applications.

Currently, Yafaray-xml for OSX doesn't work as it is.
You must enter a few commands from terminal.It might be a little hard.
(You have get agreeing to the Xcode/iOS license before this process.)

Use terminal,Check a link information for dynamic library about yafaray-xml.

Code:

otool -L /Applications/yafaray/yafaray-xml

Result

/Applications/yafaray/yafaray-xml:
/usr/lib/libstdc++.6.dylib (compatibility version 7.0.0, current version 60.0.0)
@rpath/libyafaraycore.dylib (compatibility version 0.0.0, current version 0.0.0)
/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1197.1.1)
/usr/lib/libz.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.2.5)
/usr/lib/libxml2.2.dylib (compatibility version 10.0.0, current version 10.9.0)
/usr/lib/libc++.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 120.0.0)

So change the link of "@rpath",type a command in terminal...

Code:

install_name_tool -change "@rpath/libyafaraycore.dylib" "/Applications/yafaray/bin/libyafaraycore.dylib" /Applications/yafaray/yafaray-xml

Check for it works wheater or not. type a command in terminal...

Code:

/Applications/yafaray/yafaray-xml -v

INFO: YafaRay (0.1.5)
INFO: The plugin path is: /Volumes/Daten1TB/bf-blender/Yafaray-development/yafaray-repository/Core_main_build/../addon/yafaray/bin/plugins
INFO: Environment: Loading plugins ...
ERROR: Environment: There is no image handlers registrered
INFO: YafaRay XML loader version 0.2
Built with YafaRay version 0.1.5

This must be set to the path of the plug-ins.

and before run wings app, move/remove to old Wings3D's "Preference.txt" for avoid error.
(It might be good to only modify some of the settings, but ... I do not know best ways.)

Next..., Run Wings3D app.
for Install Thebounty(yafaray exporter) plugin
plugin files will found from https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1684...yafaray.7z
(Use latest wpc_yafaray.beam from dropbox!! ,the time stamp is 2013/11/24 20:14)
(Also an older "TheBounty" archive can download from oort's site,but this version is old,It will be cause error.{case clause,{1.0,50.0}}
(The Older version's time stamp is 2013/11/23 6:40)


Now setting from Wings3D,Edit > Plug-in Preferences > TheBounty
Set path for TheBounty

/Applications/yafaray

and ... Set Yafaray-Plugin path to option(contains hyphen and space)

-pp /Applications/yafaray/bin/plugins

Then, an item "Yafaray/TheBounty" appear in Wings3D's File > Render Menu.

When you rendering image,It is better to check a log open to Wings3d's console window.
Also make and set a material to your object ....and some Light in geometry always.
If NO Light object is present at all in the geometry, Rendering fails, you will get the following error in console.

Yafaray TheBounty rendering screenshot( OSX 10.9.5)
(Note:This case I named folder "yaf" ,Of course a Dylib-link changing to /Applications/yaf/bin/libyafaraycore.dylib. )


Yafaray TheBounty option setting


------------------------------------------------
We known an another plugins("Yafaray for Wings3D".)
Yafaray0.1.5, I also test to both plug-in.
Both plugin works on OSX 10.9.5 under Yafaray 0.1.5dylib-fixed.
When migrating I was used to remove the Preferences.txt for avoid errors.

if you insatall Wings3D Yafaray plugin(from oort's site), the path have to contain file name.
for example

/Applications/yafaray/yafaray-xml

Yafaray option ss is here
