Hello,

We have released an update for the Form·Z 6.1 plug-in (Windows and Mac), incorporating the following fixes and improvements:

- Fixed issue when renaming MXM files
- Fixed issue with HDR offset always becoming 100
- When "copy background to all the channels" is enabled, intensity, scale and offset are properly copied to all the channels
- Fixed issue with wrong labels in some fields in Sky/HDR
- Fixed "purge materials message" which was displayed when the MXS file was not properly written
- Possibility to extract Sun rotation of form•Z sky
- Better error message handling

- Ability to extract form•Z lights. At the moment, point and spot (cone) lights are supported. Position, Direction, Color and Intensity are mapped from from•Z to Maxwell Render. Intensity can be set in mode “simple” or “accurate” using Watts + Efficiency or Lumens/Candelas. By default, form•Z lights are hidden to camera, so they are not visible in the scene. There is a new group of options in the Maxwell display options dialog to set these new light options.

Thanks!

Nicole
