Joons Renderer vs. p5SunflowAPIAPI

in Contributed Library Questions • 1 years ago

Pros, cons, likes, dislikes...

I want Sunflow to work in Processing and couldn't get P5Sunflow working so I looked elsewhere.

I am trying to decide which is easier (less hassle) to implement. I have read through all the forum posts on both and have been experimenting with p5SunflowAPIAPI a little. It seems pretty easy to use so far but I'm interested in what others have encountered lately. I am using Procesing v1.5.1 and eclipse.

Any advice is much appreciated!

Joons uses sunflow's native external render template (an SC file) to define the scene.

so you will have to learn syntax of that file.

p5sinflowAPIAPI wraps all the hassle with .sc files in method calls.

with some help from amnon.owed and this I've managed to get a couple of neat renders with sunflow.

I prefer this one for now, although I didn't find a way to define depth of field with it.

you could try referring to monkstone user on this thread as he was recently caught experimenting with different ray tracing libraries and processing.
