Glad to see a new real-time path tracing engine after all those years :) We are also interested in a Linux version for real-time ray traced scientific visualization on a semicylindrical display wall (which measures 8x3 meters and is powered by eight 4K projectors). Lighthouse seems very interesting...

Cool, that's good to hear. What do you mean by render core dlls? Do you mean runtime loaded library (basically deferring algorithm selection)? If so, it is easy to do that in Linux with .so libraries using dlopen.

How much of the code is Windows specific? And are there plans to make the project work in Linux?

I'll be there.

Nice, thanks for sharing!

Cool

Welcome

Nice

NM, re-reading, it is clear that it doesn't generate object code. I think it's a nifty project, and probably a good way to learn stuff, but I think if you spend effort writing optimized C++, I'd be very surprised to see this perform similarly.

Does it generate object files? IMO, this is pretty neat. It would be cool to write kernels using python, and then link those into C++ code.
