XB2 is working on all platforms, bring tested here at the moment before we release to users, also trying to squeeze in space/sky system, it didn't work right in pure OSL, so it is being baked into V4 (terrain and planet can be OSL, as can starfield).

Could you squeeze in atmospherics too like clouds, rain, rainbow etc? I think it is a must for any modern renderer. Game engines like unreal 4 are light years away with atmospherics Thanks

I have a new interior project I would like to try with XB2, any indication of when I could get my hands on it? :)

In the long term, everything is possible.

Please submit a feature request for this, thanks.

When I switch between two Render targets - I get some bugs. Check my video.
The same bug when I render with a Batch Render.
With 3.08 everything is OK, except Batch Render Job node. It still not working.

Here the scene files:

Thanks for letting us know. Vijay has now fixed the batch render script for the next release.

We'll look into the RT switch issue - I have reproduced it internally, thanks for the files.

We'll have an ETA on the forum and FB group on SA XB2 and a number of V4 XB2 plug-ins this week unless something surprising pops up (in which case we'll also let everyone know).

10 months later Lmao -- thou it feels like that sometimes between the 3.08 & this major 4 release. I just want to be able to fit larger scenes that crash with the current version.
The scenes I have are just collecting dust until then
