Naked light Preview 6 Revision 2 is out!
Speed changes
Naked light is now dramatically faster in many situations.
There’s still quite a few performance tweaks that need to be done, but this is a pretty big leap forward in terms of responsiveness. I’ve also written a tool that, among other things, makes testing performance issues a lot easier for me.
Masks are editable
You can now select and edit (but not rearrange) nodes in a mask like any other.
In this picture, the first rectangle has been rotated after being added as a mask. Heads up: most of the blur filters are buggy(-er) when inside masks, and saving masks is still broken.
Bug Fixes
As per usual, there’s been a few bug fixes, mostly related to the Inspector.

Nice work!! It’s usable on my system, albeit a somewhat slow. I can see it’s definitely using the CPU to do all the heavy lifting. Have you tried doing any optimizations on either the GPU or CPU side? It’s still pretty glitchy. Not sure why the preview thumbnail for a composition is upside-down. Probably still need to focus on getting rid of more glitches before moving to performance. I will be testing a bit further sometime. Keep up the good work.

Hi, I was wondering if you had any plans to add OFX support? either way, this project is looking very promising.

Whats up? Cant start it? Whether on an PPC, nor on an Intel Mac?!

Extremely nice idea. A few days ago I was working with Photoshop CS4 to create a poster, and I did it all procedurally (with some handpainted masks). Not being node-based, working non-destructively is a little bit of a pain in PS, so I was actually thinking to make a GPU, node-based image editing software. Imagine how happy I was to know that you’re already doing that! I downloaded the preview version immediately. I have a macbook pro 17′, nvidia 8xxx based, with snow leopard. The image update is extremely slow, not interactive at all. Could it be that it’s because for some reason OpenCL is running on the CPU instead of using the GPU?

dude you should get this ipad ready huge market for tethered shooting then touch editing…

The UI looks just awesome. It looks like you are taking the Werkkzeug’s operator stacking to a new level! The problem ist, that I can’t get it to work on my MacBook pros either on SnowLeopard, nor on Leopard. I would LOVE to test it.

Application crashed before any window appears! Is the graphics card – GMA950 – not supported? Thanks

this api will be great

Is this program still being developed? It got off to such a great start. Would love to see it completed. For some reason pixelmator doesn’t do it for me and PS is . . . well, expensive and rapidly going the way of MS software.
