YafaRay4tS v1.0.0
Re: YafaRay4tS v1.0.0
Awesome, looks kind of like a Sun Dial!
Can not wait to try it out
Looks like you solved the Sun Sky washing out the colors of the scene objects
What is the Background Skylight and how or when would you use it?
Is it related to the Sun Sky and or Darktide?

Re: YafaRay4tS v1.0.0
I never saw the Sun Sky washing out the colors, so you may still have the problem when you get it.
Background Skylight is the YafaRayLightRig used for lighting from the background and is used in both Sunsky and Darktide.
Re: YafaRay4tS v1.0.0
It is just the Sun Sky Preview not the rendered image where the scene objects get washed out to white
If I delete all of the SunSkyObject lights except the first one, the preview does not wash out the scene objects
Just did a test with no scene lights using Sun Sky as a Background type
If I do not enable the Background Skylight, it renders Black

Re: YafaRay4tS v1.0.0
This works better for me even with all of the Lights

Re: YafaRay4tS v1.0.0
Pre-update release March 17 2024
fix yafaray camera name - camera from the library is NOT the yafaray camera
dont use clipboard when animating with modelspace
anim panel opens floating for easier render cancel when modelspace is included
new open camera 3d view button
new backgrounds
sunlight select, selects the directional light, not the sun sphere
new light direction controls
change select sunsphere to open panel for sunskyobject
show/hide for sunsky and yaflightrig nodes
fix external render frame # bug
both yaf bg and hdri will check each other for pre-existing previews/background spheres
removed moonsky sphere and light
fix light count in bg preview
general sunsky preview improvements - limited by many crashes during material edit
opt viewer and image viewer will not close each others windows
darktide night colors for sunsky nodes
can move background lights closer than background sphere for improved shadow preview quality
background changed default diffuse and caustic photons to true to match blender
The bulk of planned changes are in place, the next release should be bug fixes and ui enhancements. Outside of that some of the sample scenes need some minor fixes and notes.
There is no documentation for these changes yet.

Re: YafaRay4tS v1.0.0
I added the text of the changes to the pdf documentation. So there is at least a description of the new panels and controls.

No lights in the scene and add Sun Sky Preview with Use Sun disabled, renders BLACK and does not match the Preview
SunSkyObject panel - Directional Sun Light button does not work
Not able to adjust the shadow, because the scene is Black
tS761 non-UU installation

Not happening here. Get the background of SunSky, mostly white.
Side note: Tried your scene and it doesn't have any yafaray materials.
