Version 2.7.16

added an about dialog to make it easier to determine the version of the plug-in
only the width or height of the output image can be specified directly; the other one is computed automatically to match the aspect of the view
point light sources are no longer hidden from camera
faster export in scenes with many lights
fixed: wrong position for the emitter meshes generated by the plug-in
fixed: incorrect export of split faces
fixed: scenes with grass created by an older version of the plug-in would crash in newer versions
fixed: an MXI file was still written even if the MXI output checkbox was turned off
fixed: incorrect export for some objects with multiple materials
fixed: emitter material generated for exported lights was black when encased in glass
fixed: incorrect placement for some light sources
fixed: the plastic, wood and wallpaint materials were exported incorrectly
fixed: wrong camera framing for rendered views

Version 2.7.19

added support for Revit 2014
textures assigned to native Revit materials are recognized in 2014, including the placement options such as tiling, rotation etc.
added object render flags (hide to camera, hide to GI etc.)
when the currently selected view is unavailable, the plug-in renders the first camera view it finds
added support for exporting and overriding materials found in linked files
fixed: the sun direction didn't match between Maxwell and mental ray in some cases
fixed: possible corruption of the scene information when changing Maxwell render settings
fixed: crash when trying to render several different documents successively
fixed: crash when editing Maxwell settings or objects after the document from which they originated was closed
fixed: the export could fail if certain paths had Unicode characters in them
fixed: crash when reading back emitter temperature from multilight when the target light didn't have a temperature parameter
