      I found this bug in BFA 2.94

      Try to optimize some render settings and found this bug.

      at first think it`s depends on the render engine, but no.

      Sampling Tab

      Light Path Tab

        Uh, that’s not nice O_O

        Thanks for the report. I will have a look at it tomorrow!

            Okay, got it back working again. As a quick fix you can replace the ui.py file in the .2.79scriptsaddonscycles path of your Bforartists installation by the one in the zipfile attached here.

            Note that three props are missing now in the Light Paths panel, compared to the Blender 2.7.9 release. But i compare my code with the Blender master. And here those three props are gone. See image.

            A new version may need a few more days. I will first go through the UI again, compare it with the Blender UI, and check if something else is broken. We had already two regressions too much that made it through.

            Kind regards

              File instal full path:

              C:Program Files (x86)BforartistsBforartists 0.9.4 – 64 BitBforartists_win64_0942.79scriptsaddonscycles

              That is shadow check box ?

                Yes. Replace the ui.py here with the one from the attached zipfile.

                That is shadow check box ?

                No. That is without. The shadow checkbox is gone. Don’t ask me why. The Blender devs did it. I just implement their code here.

                I have of course searched if they have placed the feature elsewhere under another name. But without luck. And the prop for the shadow checkbox is gone in the code. So there is nothing that i could do. Since i rely at the Master code, not the Release Version code.

                  So, to turn off shadows it now is only in light settings?

                    Seems so. As told, i haven’t found another location for it anymore. But imho, this makes much more sense, since shadow is a light setting.

                      According to the tooltip in Blender this turns on or off wether transparent shadows are calulated or not. – Is it turned on or off by default? Anyway, it would be handy to have as an option.

                        The Blender manual does not apply here anymore, unfortunately. As told, Bforartists relies at the Blender Master. Not the Blender release version. That’s two different branches. The release version has this checkbox. But in the Blender master it’s gone.

                          Um.. this is kind of a big issue. Shouldn’t this also be another BFA release?

                            We cannot make a single release for every bug, sorry :)

                            But yes, 0.9.5 is at its way. But first let’s triple check that we have really catched all showstoppers. I want to start this check since three days now, and there is always something else to do ^^

                              Yeah.. makes sense. Good things take time.

                                Just wanted to add, Blender Master has two new panels in the object tab now. Motion Blur and Cycles Settings. And in Cylces settings you will find shadow settings now too. And we have it like in Blender master, we have the two new panels already.

                                We need to add this to the manual at one point. Creating a task now …
