Blendigo (for Blender 2.64) 3.4.9.4

This release is mostly for fixing the external material support that I think i broke last release. Let me know if it's fixed! Cheers.


ALL PLATFORMS: http://www.indigorenderer.com/dist/expo ... .4.9.4.zip

WINDOWS INSTALLER: http://www.indigorenderer.com/dist/expo ... taller.exe

Changes in this release:

3.4.9.4
-------
* Specular material 'transparent' defaults to true.
* Specular material default IOR is now 1.5.
* Fixed external materials that were broken in 3.4.9.3


NOTE: This exporter REQUIRES Blender version 2.64 or newer

It also requires Indigo 3.4.7 or newer to be installed.

MANUAL INSTALLATION

Unzip the archive. Move the extracted indigo folder into your Blender addons folder.
You should end up with <blender scripts>/addons/indigo/

Run Blender 2.6, go into User Preferences/Addons, and find the Render section. Locate the Blendigo entry
and enable the addon by clicking the little checkbox on the right.

INSTALLATION VIA BLENDER

Run Blender 2.6, go into User Preferences/Addons. Click the "Install Addon" button and choose the blendigo-2.5-3.2.12.0.zip file. The addon will be installed and shown to you, ready for activation.

If you are upgrading, be sure to choose the "Overwrite" option when selecting the .zip file.

You can easily check the installed version in the Addons panel. After upgrading/replacing I would strongly recommend restarting blender.


KNOWN BUGS
When motion blur is enabled, objects with keyframes whose parents also have keyframes may have incorrect transformations in Indigo.
The workaround for this is to disable motion blur for the scene. This can be disabled by unchecking the 'Motion Blur' checkbox in the Render settings tab in Blender, in the 'Indigo Render Engine Settings' section.

Check it out, some info about getting Blender's nodes usable for external renderers. Would be great to get Indigo working with Blender nodes once this gets in!

I'll post more info as I find it.

Nick, Thomas, have you guys played around with Blender nodes? Super easy to set up complex materials, will be sweet once they're usable for external stuff.
