Title: Corona Renderer 1.6 for 3ds Max released!
Post by: TomG on 2017-04-24, 15:17:30: Corona Renderer 1.6 for 3ds Max released!

Full details and download over at our blog: https://corona-renderer.com/blog/corona-renderer-1-6-for-3ds-max-released/ (https://corona-renderer.com/blog/corona-renderer-1-6-for-3ds-max-released/)

Here are just a few highlights of what this release brings you!

- Faster rendering thanks to new Stratified random sampler, improved sampling of HDRIs with high contrast, lowered RAM usage.
- Major updates to Distributed Rendering, with 3ds Max pre-started on slaves to reduce waits, automatic sharing of assets across the network when needed, better UI, and more!
- Improved Interactive Rendering, with subsampling for faster rendering, fuzzy render regions, and more!
- The new Corona Image Editor lets you use LightMix, apply Denoising and adjust post-processing outside of your 3D application!
- LightMix now can be baked into the scene, making it the easiest way to get the lighting you want, and the automatic set-up has been improved with more options and information.
- Improved Corona Scatter with many new options such as scattering in regular patterns, and along splines.
- Support for 3ds Max 2018.
- And way too much more to list here, see the blog for full details: https://corona-renderer.com/blog/corona-renderer-1-6-for-3ds-max-released/ (https://corona-renderer.com/blog/corona-renderer-1-6-for-3ds-max-released/)

Hi, DR should be rock-solid now, however there is always a small chance that some unknown bug will surface. In such case, please report it on the forum or on Mantis (https://corona-renderer.com/bugs - but not in both places please, as we don't want to end up with duplicated reports) and we will look into it asap, and provide a hotfix.
