Thanks for the links and thread on this. I've got a quick question.
Would it be conceivable to farm out an external process to write sims (as
opposed to frames) to disk using the existing render api as it stands or
would I have to start altering code within Blender to facilitate that?

Hi All !!
:)
I am writing a point based rendering engine to render point clouds. I want
to plug it into Blender so that i take advantage of Blender's existing
functionality.
I am writing my code in C++.
I have already downloaded and built the blender source code.
Can anyone help me how to proceed with integrating my code with Blender?

Hi Vishesh,

right guy to answer your question, but if I were to make my own rendering
engine, I would first just clone Cycles with a new name. After that I would
strip the cloned code to the bare minimum (the communication of the scene
to the engine) and do the plumbing to my rendering code.
The code for Cycles is in the /intern/cycles directory, copy it to e.g.
/intern/myrenderer, and then proceed to replace all the required
identifiers. You will have to include the new module in the build system,
and probably make some other changes elsewhere in order for Blender to show
your engine as an alternative, but I have never done it before, so I can't
help you with that.
Cheers, and good luck.
Daniel

Hi,
Here [1] is a minimalist doc about about to interact with Blender. But, as
already said, reading how Cycles integration into Blender works is the best
way to go.
