DESCRIPTION
-----------
YafaRay is a free open-source montecarlo raytracing engine released under the LGPL 2.1 license. Raytracing is a rendering technique for generating realistic images by tracing the path of light through a 3D scene. 

Make sure that YafaRay is correctly installed in the appropiate place. See file "INSTALL" for installation details

For more information, see: http://www.yafaray.org

IMPORTANT: current LIMITATIONS of YafaRay:
* YafaRay only supports *one* scene in the .blend file. If you have more than one scene, it could cause unexpected results and problems in the new Material Preview Controls.

* YafaRay v3 has only limited support for multiple YafaRay versions and forks installed at the same time

If you have several YafaRay versions together, *make sure* that you enable in Blender *first* the old and *later* the new v3 in that order. If you have problems, disable both, restart Blender and enable them in that order.

Having several versions could cause in some cases:
    - Black renders
    - Random crashes
    - Inability to enable the YafaRay v3 plugin or all kinds of strange problems

If you have any of these problems, remove any other yafaray folders (or derived forks) from the Blender addons folder and try again. This typically solves most of the problems stated above.
