Maxwell Render | Official public forum

Version 3.2.5

• rebuilt for compatibility with Maxwell 3.2.0

Version 3.2.6

• fixed: material component nodes (layers, BSDFs etc.) were not displayed in Hypershade in Maya 2016

Version 3.2.7

• workaround for Maya 2016 bug which breaks animations for Maxwell sea, BIN mesh loader and MXS sequence references

Version 3.2.9

• increased the range of the Parallax Distance camera parameter
• set the default value for the stereo separation camera parameter to 6.5
• when creating a stereo camera rig, the center camera also shows the Maxwell Render rollup in the attribute editor
• updated the plug-in API to allow other plug-ins to export Maxwell hair
• fixed: wrong output image name when using the <Scene> macro and running an interactive batch render
• fixed: the RF BIN mesh loader object did not update in the viewport when changing the current time
• fixed: the output image format was reset to PNG when saving a scene that was using EXR

Version 3.2.10

• fixed: slow voxelization in FIRE
• fixed: adding a new customa alpha channel and selecting "no" when prompted to add the selection to it assigned all the objects in the scene to that channel

Version 3.2.11

• rebuilt with the latest SDK for compatibility with Maxwell 3.2.1.1

Version 3.2.12

• Fixed: environment preview did not work in Viewport 2.0
• Fixed: objects with semitransparent Maxwell materials did not appear correctly or at all in Viewport 2.0
• Fixed: area lights did not appear in the "Block Emitter" dialog

Version 3.2.13

• Added support for Maya 2016 Extension 2
• Fixed: FIRE did not work if the viewport driver was set to DirectX 11 or OpenGL core profile

Note: The viewport render engine defaults to "OpenGL - Core Profile" in Maya 2016 Extension 2. Maxwell material previews and some custom draw objects (e.g. grass and sea) do not work with this render engine. To see Maxwell materials and custom objects in the viewport, you need to go to Windows -> Settings/Preferences -> Preferences -> Display and change the "Rendering engine" setting to "OpenGL - Legacy". This compatibility issue will be resolved in a future plug-in update.

Version 3.2.14

• added support for the UV rotation and hue adjustment texture options
• rebuilt with the latest SDK for compatibility

Version 3.2.15

• Added support for Maya 2017
