+:warning: For versions of blender prior to 3.5, you may encounter the error message `Failed to load Mitsuba package` after installing the dependencies via pip. In order to fix that, you need to run blender with the `--python-use-system-env` flag in order for it to correctly pick up the dependencies. In order to do so, find the path to the blender executable, and in a command prompt run:
+```
+<path_to_blender> --python-use-sytem-env
+```
