This is a very exciting thing which may have further reaching implications than just volumetrics. With PBRT sneaking it’s way into the CVN perhaps we’ll start to see the technique in other places as well. PBRT has been a dream of mine since I first got into 3D illustration back when I was a kid, it’s very exciting to see it’s implementations.

I’ve been waiting and hoping for this feature since blender first hit the net years ago. The results you have up so far are great. It feels like christmas! Thank u SO much for joining in and working on this!

Great work. Can’t wait to see it implemented in Blender. Can’t wait to see it in action.

It is great that Farsthary has the chance to learn with you. It is very generous of you, Matt, to undertake this. Farsthary will bring to the table his will and dedication of which he is not short in supply and I am sure that he will become a superb developer.

Thanks to the both of you.

I love reading about all the development of features
in Blender, especially this one because physics are my
favorite thing in Blender!

I’m definitely keeping my eye on this…

Been looking forward to using this… I am sure glad that you are apart of making sure that it is done right and that it will make it into blender. Thanks

This is fantastic news! Can’t wait until I can start playing with it for real.

Good luck to both you and Raul

what can I say, incredible! my favourite hybrid artist/coder is taking control of such an amazing feature!

Raúl’s been doing a great work, but now that you’re in we will start to see the real thing, I know that you, as an artist, will put our jaws in the floor with each video (as my jaw is on the floor now with that simple spherical blend texture being volumetric!).

Also, you brought to us so many great features already! I know this is going to be great for you and for Blender, not only because of Volumetric rendering, but because of the exhaustive training this huge feature will give to you!

Thanks a lot, your to-do list is very impressive, you should keep it for yourself! now we’ll start asking for more! :)

cheers my friend!
