Could someone point me to any information or posts on the new Maxwell materials? They don't render the same as in V1.0 so I'm wondering what the process is to convert them....

I can't find much.

Thanks. One of the materials that looks radically different is just a BSDF with a coating. I would have thought this would look the same for V1 and V2...

Coatings obviously act a lot differently even on just 1 BSDF. Why is this? Anyone?

We've detected bugs in coatings and now they are fixed. It's why they look different, now. :wink:

Hi Tom,

So when is they next release with fixed bugs due? I bought/downloaded V2.0 about 2 weeks ago.

I think Tom wanted to say that coatings in v1.7 had bugs, so they where fixed with v2 release, that's why they look different now.
