Final Quality Pipeline

Jerrythepopper in Rendering


What has changed so far

  • 1.4: a Temporal Denoise window where you preview one frame, measure the noise and process the whole sequence; processing can be cancelled and continued. The Sampling Analyzer adds Quick Check and a report with three options, Fast, Balanced and Safe, each with its own Apply button.
  • 1.3.1: background jobs now follow Blender's Auto Run Python Scripts setting. With Clean launch on, the analyzers and background renders run the .blend's Python only when you allow it in your own Blender. The download no longer includes the test suite.
  • 1.3: the Light Path Analyzer finds two values for every light path, Strict and Visual, with an Apply button for each. A setting it isn't sure about is never lowered. Scenes that don't fit in graphics memory are analysed faster. The report was rewritten.
  • 1.2: a new denoise layout (each light pass is multiplied by its surface colour first, then denoised), and grain kept only in the highlights. The Sampling Analyzer got its "within 10% of the tightest" rule, the depth-of-field step and First, Middle, Last. The Light Path Analyzer learned to measure further up on glass-heavy scenes and to say what to raise by hand. Run Temporal leaves far fewer dots along moving outlines.
  • 1.1: Filter Fireflies Before Remix, and a reliability release for Build, Remove, Health Check and Temporal.
  • 1.0: the denoise pipeline, the temporal pass, both analyzers, CLI render with a live estimate, and the bilingual UI.

The full changelog is in the .zip. New features get announced when they work, not before.
