How do I set the filatoon render engine?

jmucchiello

I just upgraded to 4.23 Premiere. Should I see Filatoon as a render engine? I added a Filatoon Draw Options object into a scene but when I go to render engines it just lists ViewPort, OpenGl, IRay, 3DL, and scripted 3DL. Shouldn't one of them be Filatoon?

Filatoon is a shader.

Filament is a viewport draw style , not a render engine option. To render with Filament you select "Viewport" as render engine, and Filament as Viewport draw style

You really explained that well.

I can't find the filament viewport draw style anywhere, it isn't Windows-exclusive is it?

Yes it is, as far as I'm aware at the moment Macs don't have access to it.

Unfortunately it is. Apparently on the Mac Filament can't be implemented with the version of Qt framework DS4 uses (not sure why but I suppose the Mac version of the library is missing some features Filament would need), it requires the Qt upgrade that will come with the next major version of DS.
