After popular request we are shedding some new light in the new view layers and collections of Blender 2.8.
It’s been too long. Do you remember Eevee? A lot of development happened in the past month, so listen up.
Eevee is a new realtime engine of Blender 2.8 with support high-end PBR graphics coupled with a responsive realtime viewport.
The following document is the plan of action for the viewport project in Blender 2.8. Throughout 2017 we are expecting to tackle:
