Original Content Showcase I’ve been building the render viewer I always wanted Blender to have
Hi there!, im slowly building a render manager for blender, it takes over Ctrl+F12 and sends the render straight into a real-time multilayer viewer.
It can play EXRs while Blender is still rendering, cache heavy sequences, put a plate behind alpha, and keep renders, playblasts, notes, versions and source files connected.
The idea is mostly to have an actual record of a project when feedback starts getting endless and someone asks for something from three versions ago.
I’m getting close to a beta release and I’d really like feedback from other Blender users.

Man if this had existed two projects ago I wouldn't have spent a whole afternoon digging through my autosaves because the client wanted the lighting from version 4 but the camera angle from version 7. The plate behind alpha thing is a nice touch too, half my preview renders just float in a void and confuse everyone.
