Avoyd 0.25 first beta build is out with improvements to the voxel editor:
You can now easily import flat images in addition to heightmaps, with the option to make them emit light. This is useful for lighting your scene with for example a starfield or the view outside the window of a room. How to import and use flat emissive images to light renders.
Another new feature: if you want to add Materials to a group you can now do so in the Material Tool using the + button above the grid of material swatches.
