It aims to be attractive for artists and add-on developers to freely share their work on, even if they choose to be using third-party services to generate revenues with the same or similar extensions.īlender’s realtime rendering engine EEVEE has been evolving constantly since its introduction in Blender 2.80. No commercialization will happen on the platform. The extensions site will only offer GNU GPL compliant software, or CC-BY–SA compatible content. blend files (assets, data) you can create it to make custom tools or complete experiences.īlender Foundation will launch an official community-moderated website for sharing, discovering and downloading add-ons, themes, and asset libraries. Thanks to Blender’s very high level of customization using Python scripting, it’s possible to build up Blender from scratch with your own UIs and editor layouts. This makes it easy to use, make and share bundles of brushes with others. The asset system and browser will fully support brushes for painting and sculpting. The next steps are to support more nodes and features, and in the long term bring GPU acceleration to the existing compositor. The initial version of this feature will be available in Blender 3.5.

Artists do not have to wait for a full render to start compositing, for faster and more interactive iterations. This project adds a new compositor backend, taking advantage of GPU acceleration to be performant enough for realtime interaction.Īs a first step, this backend powers the new viewport compositor, which applies the result of the compositing nodes directly in the 3D viewport. This project is also expected to wrap up in 2023. In parallel – and using – this development, Apple engineers have been working on making Blender fully compatible with the Metal graphics API on macOS. Blender Foundation will invest developer time to finish a migration to the Vulkan graphics API in 2023. Vulkan is the cross-platform successor to OpenGL, with many opportunities to improve performance and new features like ray-tracing. Blender developers already work for many years to prepare a move away from OpenGL. However it is expected to be deprecated by the industry in the coming years. OpenGL currently powers the user interface, 3D viewports and EEVEE. Aside from the community effort to keep core functionality stable and up to date, several high profile projects have started already that – fingers crossed – might get realized this year.
