Shaderlight allows key image attributes to be changed interactively without having to restart the entire rendering process from the beginning. Changes to materials, environments, lighting and textures can be made at any time during rendering, even at high resolution. Ray-tracing performance for glossy surfaces has also been increased.

Shaderlight 0.2 is available to download from the manufacturer’s website for US$75. The first release version is scheduled to appear at the end of the year.
