    Given that the blender studio uses mostly development versions, I believe there may be a connection with the 5.3 new Light accumulation node.
    I saw Cartesian Caramel use it to make shadows that adjusted to a voronoi pattern

      Main branch? Yes. Experimental branch? Probably not.

      Looking at Light accumulation node you mentioned, it lives in another experimental branch and node tree is a completely different beast. The improvement to the NPR workflow will be huge. Although I can’t see myself using it heavily soon. I will try it out once it is in main behind experimental flag or later.
