Open source and Blender developer. Working on Blender's new compositor.

@AversionReality This will be supported in the compositor in:

@DanMaslyn No, a bounding box would cover the entire voronoi cell. Here, we are taking about the circle that is inscribed in the voronoi cell. See https://t.co/PcBiJLqfee

Blender v4.4 is released!
We rewrote the entire CPU compositor, providing significant performance uplift in some cases, better interactivity, and less memory usage.

The new architecture should make future development much easier, so stay tuned for the future.

@3pointedit @blue_nile_3d @Trinumedia This is not merged yet, use those test builds:

[Omar Emara @OmarEmaraDev]

@blue_nile_3d @3pointedit @Trinumedia They will also be available, not sure when exactly. Trying to get EEVEE working as a first step.

[Omar Emara @OmarEmaraDev]

@Trinumedia @3pointedit Yes. This screenshot was actually from the viewport compositor. There are some tests builds here if you want to give it a try. https://t.co/ttVXuVjCVy

[Omar Emara @OmarEmaraDev]

@3pointedit @Trinumedia EEVEE supports AOV passes, so you can just create a UV AOV pass and access that from the compositor. Just make sure to add 1 to the Z component because that's what the compositor expects.

[Blender Developers 🔶 @BlenderDev]

The GPU Compositor is now official! 🎉

Blender 4.2 LTS will make use of your GPU to power compositing setups. Available in the Options tab in the Compositor sidebar, and the Performance panel in Render Properties.

Congratulations VFX module!

@3D_director The pass itself is not supported unfortunately, so not at the moment.

[Omar Emara @OmarEmaraDev]

@3D_director This is probably best handled as a bug report.

[Omar Emara @OmarEmaraDev]

@3D_director @dfelinto @erindale_xyz If the node didn't convert automatically, report this as a bug with the file.

[Omar Emara @OmarEmaraDev]

@Trinumedia @Laserschwert_ Actually the banding is due to limited precision. You need to change the precision to Full in the node tree options to avoid it. This option is in 4.1 only, hence why I only enabled the pass in 4.1. This Full thing will happen automatically in the future.

@bipmatt That makes sense. I will look into it.

Release Notes:
https://t.co/leWTTbYVaQ

[Omar Emara @OmarEmaraDev]

@andrewpprice It is already in master behind an experimental flag. It will move out of experimental in 3.5 and will be officially part of the 3.5 release. However, MacOS will not be supported and there are a number of limitation as shown in https://t.co/6YNmEoA4mZ.

[Omar Emara @OmarEmaraDev]

@3D_director @ilychris_ @afeso_art @deadtunnelrat Yes. It is available in the daily builds.

[Omar Emara @OmarEmaraDev]

@3D_director @ilychris_ @afeso_art @deadtunnelrat Charlie implemented and committed that last week, so it will be part of the 3.5 release. https://t.co/9MYEjNdYk2

[Omar Emara @OmarEmaraDev]

@3D_director If you think it is a bug, just open a bug report. If not, just send it in a private message on twitter.

[Omar Emara @OmarEmaraDev]

@danielpartzsch It will be release as part of 3.5. It should be safe to use in production, taking into account its limitations and compatibility against the existing compositor, which will be documented.
