About this thread
You will find in this section everything needed to easily make photorealistic renderings of Mecabricks models with Blender.
Software and files needed
• Blender
• Blender Add-on by Mecabricks
• Environment images [e.g. zbyg Packs]
Where is the video tutorial for all of this? I can't see a link to it anywhere 😦
How do I render once I've downloaded the Blender and the Blender Mecabricks extension?
Thanks,

Every Time I put in my creation, the app shuts
Hello,
My Linux distro updated blender to 2.81 and since then I can't use the addon any longer.
Any timeplan for th new version of your addon?
Add-ons will be updated when the new part system will be in place.
Unlikely to be before the end of 2019. I would think that late January is more realistic.
[edit] For whatever reason, you need to re-install the add-on, then close and re-open Blender. It works normally after that.
Indeed, I posted the same on the thread about the full add-on.
Now I have to understand why Eevee doesn't render transparent bricks properly, for sure it is fast but this transparency issue can't be just a tradeoff, I must be missing something.
Maybe I'm doing something wrong. I've updated to 2.81 and I can't seem to be able to install the newest version of the add-on. It pops up a bunch of errors and ends up not installing. 😦
It is a know issue. Blender Windows has a bug with the API I use. I am trying to fix it.
Awesome! Hoping it will get solved! 😃
It has been already solved yesterday.
When I try to download the new, updated version by adding it to my cart, I get the message "You already own this item." Am I doing something wrong?
If you already have the add-on, you need to go to the page that shows all the products you already "purchased".
Thanks!
Is there a way to turn off LEGO logos on stutds now, as .zmbx export doesn't have such option? It helps during render of big models.
Also now viewport colors are not assigned to materials and everything grey in viewport. Is it a bug or intentional?
This is now a setting located in the option panel when you import the file in Blender
Viewport colours will be added again in a next update.
Is it possible to Import only 1 version of each material so you can easily select parts by their colour (material)?
I have a problem with this new version because when i import a model to blender the model it correctly imported but when i change the viewport shading to material preview or rendered, blender closes itself, I had feelling that the software has a problem but I tried to import a collada file that it does not have these problems.
Someone help me !
@hamid make sure that the render engine is set to Cycles. Eevee is not supported.
Yes , now i can change the viewport shading to rendered but, the material preview the same problem remains.
But i want eevee mode.
and if I import a collada file the textures is not well put.
The material preview mode in Blender runs on Eevee...
I may fully support Eevee in the future but even if I do there is no guarantee that it would work on your computer. It would really depend on your computer specs. Eevee is a young renderer and it has a long road ahead to be optimized.
