Blend files can execute malware
In case anyone needs another reminder not to click untrusted links on the internet : This week Superhive (formerly Blender Market) vendors were the target of some malicious attacks. Many (myself included) received a legitimate-sounding support ticket asking for help with their product, probably AI-generated to target them specifically. Attached to the ticket was a seemingly innocent blend file. A chair model. When opening the file, Blender asks if you want to execute “rig_ui.py”. Sure, w...
VulkanThe 2025 LunarG Ecosystem Survey Results are here! See what Vulkan developers had to say about the state of the Vulkan ecosystem. Highlights in the blog post and a link to the full report! https://khr.io/1il
Vulkan is ready! 🌋
...for testing.
Help getting Vulkan ready by testing it and sharing your feedback with the developers. Learn more: https://devtalk.blender.org/t/vulkan-feedback-and-testing/39900 #b3d #Vulkan
Vulkan: Feedback and testing
Hi all, The Vulkan project is getting to a state where we need to validate if it can become an official supported backend (not experimental). Last month effort was spent to make the viewport performance comparable to OpenGL. Vulkan is used to draw the user interface and EEVEE. [!NOTE] Using Vulkan as a Cycles backend is NOT a target. It will have too many limitations concerning maintainability and features. We would like feedback on stability, features not working and troublesome platforms...
Worked on #OpenXR #Vulkan support inside #Blender3d. After a couple of days hacking it is clear how the final solution would look like.
The rendering and displaying part is working. But need external memory to give the offscreen render result to OpenXR swapchain.
Time to add support for VK_KHR_external_memory_*.
WIP: Vulkan: OpenXR support
Ref #133718 **Outline of the implementation** The Blender's VkInstance cannot be shared with OpenXR VkInstance. The reason is a chicken and egg problem where OpenXR needs to be started before Vulkan. OpenXR can add special vulkan specific requirements (instance&device) that are only available w...
#phoronix did a post about #blender3d transition to #vulkan.

They mention the work on GPU based subdivision. Today I was able to use GPU based subdivision on both Metal and Vulkan backend. Still in development.
Made possible by the #devfund !
Blender's Vulkan Renderer Is Making Great Progress To Production Readiness This Year
With the release of Blender 4.3 last November an experimental Vulkan back-end was added and it continues to be improved upon for modernizing this 3D creation suite for digital artists and serving a variety of other purposes
