Finally an open source GPU based renderer that can used for serious projects. When Animux Foundation created its renderfarm with emphasis on GPU renderers it was eagerly waiting and hoping to find a GPU based renderer to be used on it. We finally have SmallLuxGPU based on LuxRays which does exactly that. This introduction tutorial by Sebastian Konig shows you how to use this powerful new renderer. (more…)

This tutorial by CGCookie takes the viewer through an introduction to using the LuxRender rendering engine from rendering engine in conjunction with Blender. Learn where to get it, how to run the script, and how to render to LuxRender. (more…)

Everyone in the animation industry is familiar with the voracious appetite a studio when it comes to dishing out huge files on and out of server. This means you should have a filesystem that can do a great job at I/O. The British studio, FrameWorks, was one of the earliest adopters of, Lustre, an open source clustered filesystem to help meeting this demand. This Google Techtalk gives you an understanding of what exactly Lustre all about. (more…)

?The tutorial by Allan Briton shows how you can set up light sources, so that controls can change LuxRender illumination values and intensity.   (more…)

The latest version of Animux comes with LuxRenderer V0.6 which can be used with Blender to create as an alternate renderer than the Blender Internal. In this time-lapse video tutorial, Allan Brito,?  shows how to start a simple model in Blender 3D, and by the end of the modeling process, setup a render in LuxRender. The video will show the basic steps to start a daylight simulation and setup UV Maps in LuxRender. (more…)

The video shows how you can set a scene for rendering with Blender 3D internal and YafaRay. (more…)
