* Removed support for 3ds Max 2014 and 2015
* Removed warning about using V-ray bitmap in IR (it works correctly)Experimental

* Fixed endless IR restarts in V-Ray in certain situations (e.g. when using IFL file as density map).
* Cosmos models imported as part of Scatter presets are disabled for rendering. If needed, it can be enabled again in 3ds Max, in object properties of each of the models.
