Integrate zstacker into Blender UI #2

Hi, could zstacker be implemented also as a blender Addon, or alternatively be released with some python scripts that can be run directly from the Blender scripting window in the GUI? Thanks!

In short, no. The real answer is maybe but would require a Python-only rewrite.

The current use of the OpenVDB depends on the C++ API. Blender addons are pretty much Python-only, unless you package compiled code for all architectures (e.g. both including x86 and ARM Mac builds, for example).

It should be possible to do a Python-only version of this software, as there is an OpenVDB Python package, which would let this be implemented as a Blender addon.
