You can download Corona 3 daily build and find your answer there.
Intrigued! I'm not big following the development here, so I didn't know this is already being implemented :D

Just wondering, after corona 3 is released will the things that were addressed in that release be removed from this poll?

I removed Corona Scatter Improvements, since that is currently running and will conclude soon. But I intend to keep memory (and speed) optimizations there, since it is an ongoing process (it can always be faster/consume less memory). I dont see other features in this poll that got addressed in v3 (I already removed some earlier)

Well, autobump is also already implemented, but the other displacement improvements are still valid.

Does that means no mapable transformations for Corona scatter? :[

Can we not assume that stuff under the hood like making memory/speed/displacement better and existing features better is a given?
It just seems that it might make more sense to use the poll to vote on new features so they dont get buried by the obvious and more permanent ones that have been on the poll for a long time and everyone wants?

Like we all obviously expect Memory optimization  Displacement improvements and Speed improvements each major version dont we?

I think that devs use this poll not to see what users want to be implemented, but to see what users whant to be implemented first. I think every feature in this poll is interesting and should be implemented at some point, the question is what to prioritise, having in mind limited resurses.

I completely understand. I do still think though that having the ones i mentioned on the poll is a little odd considering we all would expect things like memory improvements and speed improvements version to version anyway. If they werent there then people would have to vote for some of the other features which maybe are just as popular but havent been on the poll as long to accrue so many votes.

How is the work on the GPU front coming along since it's the highest polling feature?
I also visited a few threads here about the shader and fresnel stuff and a better shader implementation (e.g. https://forum.corona-renderer.com/index.php?topic=13398.150)
Is this something you guys are working on? I am curious. Thank you :)

Added improved tone mapping.
With the v3 feature lock I am resetting the poll again. lets see what is currently the hottest request, before v4 feature list is finalized!

Wonderful thanks Ondra. Still think speed and memory improvements shouldnt be on there though ;)

I agree, that's a given that will skew the results

Red and high end cinema cameras which look super flat like this :



I think the point of having tone mapping like DSLR consumer cameras is to have renders "ready-made" like the photos we are most used to seeing everyday.
