[Bf-extensions-cvs] [7d11bb35] master: The addon gets updated for Eevee/Cycles - part 4: a point light source for Eevee is re-inserted (I forgot that this is needed for Eeve) and the transparency material properties of the vacancies when using Eevee have been changed: the cubes show now a nice transparency.

The addon gets updated for Eevee/Cycles - part 4: a point light source for
Eevee is re-inserted (I forgot that this is needed for Eeve) and the transparency
material properties of the vacancies when using Eevee have been changed: the
cubes show now a nice transparency.
