Build 1.50.00 final
===================

New features:
(*) New render elements: VRayMatteShadow, VRayTotalLighting, VRayRawTotalLighting;
(*) Added exporter script to the .vrscene file format supported by the standalone version of V-Ray;
(*) Animation modes for the irradiance map (added two new modes “Animation (prepass)” and “Animation (rendering)” along with a paramter to control the blend between frames;

Modified features:
Core engine
(*) Increased rendering speed for some types of scenes;
(*) By default V-Ray no longer uses rQMC sampling; instead, a modified version of Schlick sampling is used (noise is reduced in certain situations);

Installation
(*) Updated WIBU-key drivers for 32- and 64-bit Windows* (including Windows* Vista*) are included with the installation;
(*) The uninstaller will unregister any V-Ray services as well (DR spawner, license server etc.);
(*) The installation has three options for the type of installation (full workstation installation; render slave installation; and license server only);

Lights and cameras
(*) New photometric models for VRaySun, VRaySky, VRayPhysicalCamera and VRayLights;
(*) Global option to work in the system lighting units of 3dsmax for consistent results with 3dsmax photometric lights;
(*) VRayLight has a “Cutoff threshold” parameter, which allows to reduce render times in scenes with many weak lights;
(*) VRayLight has an “Affect reflections” option to control reflection visibility separately from speculars;
(*) VRayLight has a “Simple portal” option that speeds up the rendering by considering environment color only (rather than tracing behind the portal);
(*) VRayLight has a “Cast shadows” option;
(*) VRayLight objects now produce accurate motion blur when animated;
(*) VRaySun is now compatible with the 3dsmax Daylight system and can be selected as a sun type;
(*) VRaySky will now pick the first VRaySun light in the scene that is enabled (rather than the first one at all);
(*) VRayPhysicalCamera supports horizon line in the viewports, clipping and environment near and far ranges;
(*) VRayPhysicalCamera has a parameter for controlling the amount of vignetting;

Disributed rendering (DR)
(*) DR is now supported for Render-to-texture;
(*) DR can now be started as a BackBurner job;
(*) Render slaves can be added on the fly to the distributed rendering;
(note: the servers must still first be added as DR servers list in the DR settings);
(note: if more than 1 network adapters are installed on the slave, set the VRAY_DR_SUBNET env. variable);
(*) If “Check for missing files” option is checked, DR will now fail on the render slaves if some maps cannot be found, instead or rendering wrong buckets;

Geometry
(*) New default “Auto” mode for the “Default geometry” parameter automatically detects heavy meshes and instances and renders them as dynamic geometry to save RAM;
(*) The ply2vrmesh converter now supports .obj files and has some .obj-specific options;
(*) VRayProxy objects display faster in the viewports;
(*) VRayProxy will now re-link the .vrmesh file at each frame, rather than only at the render start;
(*) VRayProxy objects now produce motion blur when the proxy transformation is animated;
(*) VRayProxy objects now generate velocity information for image motion blur when their transformation is animated;
(*) VRayProxy objects now declare the .vrmesh files to the Asset Tracker in 3ds Max 9;

Materials and textures
(*) Added exclude list for material override in the Global Switches rollout;
(*) Matte objects with the “Shadows” option checked will now generate VRayRawLighting, VRayRawShadow and VRayMatteShadow elements;
(*) VRayDirt has an option “Work with transparency”, which causes it to take into account the transparency of occluding objects;
(*) VRayHDRI has a “Render multiplier” parameter, which additionally modifies the map only at render time;
(*) VRayHDRI maps now declare their files to the Asset Tracker in 3ds Max 9;
(*) VRayMtl has a new “hybrid” SSS model;
(*) VRayMtl now has an “Envrionment priority” option to control environment override behaviour between different materials;
(*) VRayMtl now has a “Roughness” parameter that allows to produce effects close to dusty surfaces (like skin or the surface of the Moon);
(*) VRayColor texture has an option to apply gamma correction to the displayed color in the UI;
(*) VRayFastSSS material has been reworked to use the irradiance map interpolation mechanism for faster and smoother results;
(*) VRayEdgesTex can now be used as a bump map to produce a rounded-corners effect on triangle meshes;
(*) VRayMtlWrapper has the options “No GI on other mattes” and “GI surface ID” added to it;
(*) VRayOverrideMtl has a shadow override option;

GI solutions
(*) The irradiance map viewer will print out the progress of merging irradiance maps;
(*) The autosave file names for irradiance/light cache/photon/caustics maps are now updated at each frame, rather than only at the render start;
(*) The irradiance/light cache/photon/caustics maps are auto-saved as soon as they are computed, rather than at the end of the frame/rendering;
(*) The “Save maps per frame” option has been removed from the GI rollout;

Render output
(*) “Don’t affect colors” option for color mapping; useful if you only need the sampling adaptation to be performed;
(*) “Clamp Level” option for color mapping (specifies the level at which colors are clamped, if clamping is on);
(*) Options for directly controlling the render mode (region, crop etc) of the V-Ray VFB;
(*) When rendering to texture (RTT) the 3dsmax VFB is now always generated, regardless of whether the V-Ray VFB is on or off;
(*) V-Ray will write a tiled OpenEXR file directly to disk, similar to a raw .vrimg file, if the raw file name ends in “.exr”;

Others
(*) VRayDisplacementMod now supports high-dynamic range textures for displacement in “2d landscape” mode;
(*) V-Ray will now force multithreading when 3dsmax is in slave mode, regardless of the 3dsmax multithreading option;
(*) Added “Affect alpha” option to VRaySphereFade;
(*) VRaySphereFade works correctly with transparent objects;
(*) VRayFur can now generate motion blur with more than 2 geometry samples;
(*) The default value for the number of light cache passes is now 8;
(*) The parameters of the renderer have been split into several tabs in the Render Scene dialog for 3ds Max 9 and later;

Known issues:
(*) When rendering a 3dsmax Raytrace material applied on VRayProxy objects, V-Ray will crash; removing the Raytrace material prevents the crash;
(*) Instancing a group inside a ParticleFlow system may cause a crash, if the original group is rendered as well; hiding the instanced group prevents the crash;

Bug fixes:
(*) “Affect shadows” and “Affect alpha” options did not work for VRayMtls inside a Multi/subobject material (RC3 bug);

(*) Crash with the “Show map in viewport” option for VRayMtl when using Direct3D (RC3 bug);
(*) Textures with mapping channels greater than 1 are now correctly shown in the Material Editor;
(*) The “Global light level” options from the Environment dialog now affect the color of VRayLights and standard 3dsmax lights;
(*) VRayBlendMtl did not list the blend textures as sub-anims;
(*) If “Render to raw image file” option for the V-Ray VFB was ON, but the file name is empty, V-Ray would freeze while rendering;
(*) The parameters of VRayMtlWrapper did not have proper names in Track View;
(*) If the primary GI engine was light cache or photon map but GI is turned off, standard materials would render black;
(*) VRayMtl materials with low glossiness inside a VRayBlendMtl could produce polygonal artifacts on shadow/light boundaries;
(*) The pixel aspect ratio from the Render Scene dialog was ignored when rendering with DR to the 3dsmax VFB;
(*) A low-dynamic range 3dsmax frame buffer was used even when saving to a high-dynamic range file format (.exr, .hdr etc);

(*) Incorrect sampling with gamma color correction when some of the pixel RGB components is zero;
(*) In 3dsmax 9, VRayMtlWrapper, VRay2SidedMtl, VRayOverrideMtl could crash when reset from the Material Editor;
(*) Some V-Ray materials (e.g. VRayMtl) did not reset when the “Reset” button from the Material Editor was used;
