    Its there a plan for an update for Blender 4.2 ? Cant install the Addon no longer in 4.2. (MAC)

      It should work in 4.2. please edit the init.py file and add a blank line at the top. Then save and it will install if you just drag and drop into 4.2. it's a bug in blender and it will be fixed in a new update coming soon in Blender. Not to mention I'll make a fix on the add-on as well.

    Fantastic tool , really saved huge time rendering interiors for commercial buildings , and best of all it gives you the ability to keep the interiors relevant to the project , it works best with night shots

    A great product. If it works. Unfortunately, I first had to find out for myself that this addon is not compatible with KIT OPS FREE.
    Probably a bug, since Blender crashes immediately. The Pro version is recommended. But what exactly does that mean?
    A support request for my case was only answered with this sentence: Help me help you. http://cw1.me/bugreport
    When I bought KIT OPS PRO to try, everything works fine.

    This is incredible. I've seen things that SORT of approximate it ("The Impossible Box")--but nothing that creates these sorts of assets in a way that is reasonably easy to follow and extremely effective. This is potentially a game changer for certain kinds of scenes that would be nearly impossible to do conventionally (it's also cool for some wild effects you also couldn't do otherwise).

      Thanks, Marco, for the kind words.

    This works really well. On the shader part, as a user of vRoom for LightWave back in the day, I've longed for something like this; the OSL shaders worked nicely, but weren't ideal in a number of cases. The only minor thing is that, just for the sake of understanding, having some written guidance for the magic of the shader network would complete the package in my eyes. There's a lot that could be learnt, if there was an overview available to explain it to the interested, but unfamiliar.

    On the texture generation, this is really nicely done. I've never really seen something like this before that wraps up the image generation pipeline in this way for the cross-maps needed by the shader. It's very nicely done indeed.

    I'm not sure whether it would be possible, but the moon-on-a-stick user in me would love to have a magic shader that would randomly apply one from a list of cubemaps across non-contiguous polygons in a material. In this way, one could have a single mesh of 'window' polygons across a building and have rooms assigned pseudo-randomly, with night/day combinations and the like. This would make a one-stop shop for decorating building meshes (in my mind), with a good amount of randomness.

    The other minor request would be to have window distortion applied (not all windows in buildings are perfectly flat, with various deformations). That would sell the illusion quite well, I think.

      Thanks Phil, the random application I think can be done with scatter or SYNTH or I think even some of the ramdomize tools that come with Blender.
