Hi all,
since Alpha v4 contained some serious bugs, I've decided to release next alpha faster than usual, after adding just single major feature - IES lights (both both v-ray and mental ray IES light objects are supported).
It is subject to the
Corona licence/disclaimer. The installation instructions are
here.
Below is a list of the most significant changes. There were also lots of small bugfixes/performance improvements/tweaks:
- IES lights supported
- multiscatter + forestpack support
- Fixed long transforming vertices bug
- Fixed bug saving cropped images/not saving 16bit exr/tiff
- panorama exporter support added
- override material supports include mode
- fixed “camera clipping + HDcache” bug
- Slow viewport when CoronaSun set to "From Sky"
- fixed faceting when using extreme bump
- multithreaded enviro lights parsing for improved scene build performance
Installation: select your 3dsmax version, copy over the files (there is one new shared library, Corona_IES_parser.dll, that goes to 3dsmax root)
