YafaRay is a free open-source raytracing engine. Raytracing is a rendering technique for generating realistic images by tracing the path of light through a 3D scene.

A render engine consists of a "faceless" computer program that interacts with a host 3D application to provide specific raytracing capabilties "on demand". Blender 3D is the host application of YafaRay.

YafaRay is released under the LGPL 2.1 license. Download YafaRay in the downloads section.

Betas of every and each GSOC YafaRay project are being released. We need as much help as possible to betatest them, so most of the bugs can be ironed out before the GSoC program ends. The more case scenes we try with and the more renders we produce, the better. In this section of the YafaRay forum you can check on-going betatesting threads and participate in. We also need volunteers to produce Windows builds of each GSoC project.

Thank you for participating!
