-LuxRender
-=========
+luxrender (rendering engine)
LuxRender is a physically based and unbiased rendering engine.
-Based on state of the art algorithms, LuxRender simulates the flow of light according
-to physical equations, thus producing realistic images of photographic quality.
-It is fully-featured, with a command line application as well as a GUI, widespread
-render farm support, instancing, volumetrics, motion blur, and more.
-
-This package supports 64-bit systems only, because it installs the pre-compiled LuxRender
-package. It is possible to install LuxRender on 32-bit system, but it requires building from source.
