I used the Bucket rendering mode......
But it was a pain in ass to know when the pass is over... Would be damn nice to see the buckets, where they are...

i would use progressive. Buckets have no performance or other benefits over progressive ;)

I talked with Joel about the new UI. Hopefully he will get it done. With new clean UI, it will be a lot simpler and easier to set up :) There would also be very explanatory tooltips as well as good presets.

Rawalanche, are you talking about the Standalone App or the Blender corona UI?
The UI of the Blender addon could get more organized; I would kick everything, what is not supported by Corona; i tested 2 Hours the Blender lights with no sucess until i recognized that they are not supported, bytheway he makes a nevertheless an excellent job!

Try to double your light samples multiplier value ;) There are indeed cases where buckets may be slightly better, but also cases, where they may be a bit worse. Progressive is always a safe bet :)
