Where?????? Yafaray exporter for 2.5x

[twohot]

I have seen evidence that people are test-running the new Yafaray exporter for the latest Blender (2.5x series). However, finding the exporter scripts have not been easy. Seems there are different parallel threads on the subject as though there are different versions being developed simultaneously. So, who is actually developing the script officially? Who is not? Where can I get the right one? Why isn't there a link to the script on the download page?

1. Got yafaray exporter for Blender here:
git clone http://github.com/shuvrosarker/yafaray_exporter.git

2. Used scons to build yafaray 0.1.1 from Source downloaded from Yafaray website. (Official download page)

3. Did some preliminary tweaks as explained here: http://somenewcolors.blogspot.com/2010/08/installing-yafaray-exporter-for-blender.html

4. Ran Blender from Terminal

5. Got the following results:

So, how do I get yafaray and Blender to cooperate?

shuvro began coding the exporter as part of the GSOC, but I don't think he is working on it now. The exporter you have may be old.

The most recent exporter:-
git clone git://github.com/megasoft78/Blender-2.5 ... ficial.git

More information here:-
http://www.yafaray.org/node/434
http://www.yafaray.org/community/forum/ ... &start=165

You can download recent Blender builds with the Yafaray exporter from graphicall.org

Please bear in mind the exporter, and Blender 2.5x are unfinished and not considered stable for production use.
