Hello Developers !
I’m the maintainer of LuxCoreRender for MacOS. Since Blender 2.82 Blender will crash when activating the BlendLuxCore addon. No Problems on 2.81a and in Windows and Linux. I debugged blender latest.
here is the console output with backtrace

and a Screenshot of Xcode 10.1
It will be hard to reproduce the crash on Mojave and up since we (LuxCore) do not have AppleDevLic so the .dmg is not signed or notarized. So on Mojave and up SIP must be disabled otherwise it won’t work at all. So High Sierra is needed to reproduce the bug without SIP problems.
The lastest LuxCore build can be found here:
https://github.com/LuxCoreRender/BlendLuxCore/releases/tag/latest
It is really strange this only seems to happen on MacOS.
Help or ideas are very much appreciated from the LuxCore Team.
Thanks u3dreal(Luxcore)
