====================================
YafaRay + Blender Exporter for Blender v2.7 ChangeLog
=====================================================

---------------------------------------------

* Added note about Blender-Exporter only working for Blender v2.7x versions. `[Blender Exporter + Core]`

YafaRay v3.4.0 (2020-03-22) for Blender 2.79:
---------------------------------------------
Note: don't mind the release date, the project has been mostly inactive for a long time, so only a few (although significant) changes since v3.3.0, but it was about time to give the last changes a proper release version number.

IMPORTANT: current LIMITATIONS of YafaRay:
* YafaRay only supports *one* scene in the .blend file. If you have more than one scene, it could cause unexpected results and problems in the new Material Preview Controls.

* YafaRay v3 has only limited support for multiple YafaRay versions and forks installed at the same time
SOURCE CODE
-----------
YafaRay source code is hosted in GitHub.

If you have several YafaRay versions together, *make sure* that you enable in Blender *first* the old and *later* the new v3 in that order. If you have problems, disable both, restart Blender and enable them in that order.
* YafaRay Core source code is available in: https://github.com/YafaRay/Core
* YafaRay Blender-Exporter (for Blender v2.7x) source code is available in: https://github.com/YafaRay/Blender-Exporter

Having several versions could cause in some cases:
- Black renders
- Random crashes
- Inability to enable the YafaRay v3 plugin or all kinds of strange problems

If you have any of these problems, remove any other yafaray folders (or derived forks) from the Blender addons folder and try again. This typically solves most of the problems stated above.
RELEASES
--------
There are two different types of YafaRay Releases:

* Releases for Blender: they include the Blender-Exporter code and the YafaRay Core files, in a package ready to be installed in Blender.
* Standalone Core Releases: they are intended to be used by 3rd party software and *not* to be used with Blender.
