Dear Friends,

Have a nice day! Today, we have good news again.
You'll notice some most wanted features like clipmaps finally arrived.
And as usual, more to come... Stay tuned!

Best regards,

MAXWELL RENDER 1.0
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NEW! Clipped Transmittance
Now, perfect clipmaps are possible with new implementation
in transmittance mapping. Moreover, it works with one sided
geometry and it's possible to have it rendered on both faces.
Sorry, no shadow problems this time.

IMPROVED! Weightmapped Transparency
Especially for the ones who need to make fur, hair, curtains
without using clipmaps but perfect alpha. You will be able to
make smooth opacity transitions between your layers.
Again we're sorry, no shadow problems here.

IMPROVED! Dispersion and Caustics
Dispersion and caustics with custom, Ior and Complex Ior
materials have been remarkably improved. Now, spectrum
is far more accurate.





--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NEW! MXI/HDR Emitters (*supports over material base)
Maxwell now also supports HDR images for emitters on-the-fly.
Just like other emitter types, it's now possible to apply HDR/MXI
emitters over your base materials. Yet, it's another name of power.
Multilight is also suppored by these type of emitters.

IMPROVED! Attenuation Model
New Attenuation model improved about precision and depth.
It's now supporting mapped transmitance better.
Tint the thickness in a physically correct way!
