Does the addon work with Eevee and Cycles?
Blend Craft Compositor is designed to work exclusively with Cycles and does not support Eevee.
Can Blend Craft Compositor be used to preview effects in the viewport?
No, Blend Craft Compositor only works within Blender’s Compositor and does not provide real-time effect previews in the viewport. The effects are applied after rendering in the compositing stage.
Can I remove individual render passes to speed up my render time?
No, each render pass is blended with the others, and removing one could cause missing information, potentially leading to rendering issues. For optimal results, it's best to keep all the necessary passes connected.
What if I want to add additional effects?
Blend Craft Compositor is designed with a shader group setup, accessible through compositor nodes. You can freely add extra effects to enhance your scene. However, note that these customizations will not carry over when you click "Setup Compositor" on a new scene.
How do I reset the compositor to default settings?
You can reset the compositor by clicking the "Load Defaults" button located in the Presets tab.
How do I connect multiple view layers in the compositor?
Simply click "Setup Compositor", and the addon will automatically connect all the necessary render passes to your compositor, ensuring a seamless workflow.
What Blender versions are supported?
Blend Craft Compositor has been tested with Blender 4.3 and is compatible with any higher versions.
Does Blend Craft Compositor work with Mist and Volume?
Yes, Blend Craft Compositor supports Mist and Volume passes. It automatically integrates them into the compositor, allowing for easy adjustments to atmospheric effects without complex node setups.
Does Blend Craft Compositor increase render times?
No, Blend Craft Compositor does not significantly increase render times. It works in the compositing stage, applying effects after rendering. However, using certain effects or high-quality settings may slightly impact post-processing speed.
How can I speed up my render time?
The biggest factor affecting render time is the denoiser. To optimize performance:
Go to Effects Tab > Denoiser ; Set Prefilter to Accurate; Disable Use HDR ; Reduce the Max Sample Amount in the Render Tab ; Adjust Light Paths > Max Raytrace Bounces based on your project's needs;
These adjustments can significantly improve render speed while maintaining quality.

Can the add-on be used in animations?

Does Blend Craft Compositor support GPU rendering?
Yes, the addon enables GPU rendering by default, ensuring faster performance when using a compatible GPU.
Can Blend Craft Compositor be used by beginners?
