I have managed to make work one of the latest nightly builds of Luxcore Luxblend with Blender 4.2.0 and I am very happy with it and also with Blender Cycles

[Ponlets]

people talk about using moonray but there is no direct means to just use it with blender as they expect you to know how to compile it yourself which i feel is unreasonable when it should be like an addon ... can someone make a reasonably straight forward tutorial on how to make it work with Blender?

[t-love]

i have all of them, they are awesome -- they have also all been around for a long while and are well-known.

[dissonanceparadiddle]

I'm so excited to have the potential to make fuzzy fluffy crazy stuff like in trolls.

[Capsicumh]

cycles literally make the things i make 10x better

[DerekGreen]

The big thing LuxCore has going for it is that it's a spectral renderer, whereas Cycles is not.

Man you always bring good content, thank you!

How have you make the paper animation in this video ?

[birdaid]

How did OTOY OCTANE not make it in the list though?
Because its also free and undoubtably thee best in all in the list?

[Loembstv]

Hi,
Don't you have an online training for editors?

[eclairesrhapsodos]

What about Octane and Renderman, I think its best free render engines for blender.

[TheThebeep]

Octane is also free with a limitation that you use only one GPU.

[TheNjordy]

Moonray is pointless, so no reason for it to gain traction.

For quality in Blender -> Cycles, nothing else is worth it
