Info:
MtoA 5.0.0 introduces Arnold 7.0.0.0 and is a major feature release bringing parallel preview renders on the CPU,
multiple outputs for OSL and custom shaders, brand new imagers along with many other enhancements and bug fixes.
System Requirements:
-Maya 2019, 2020 or 2022
-Windows 10 or later, with the Visual Studio 2019 redistributable.

Warning:Be sure to scan all the downloaded files with your Antivirus, and if there is an executable or installer file, make sure to have your antivirus active and open in the background while installing or running the installed app. Some of the materials posted here are grabbed from CGPeers, so it could potentially have something injected in them.
We always ask bloggers to scan all the files before publishing the posts, but sometimes it's hard to detect all these things, so if you found anything suspicious (Not false positive, Generic, Patcher, Riskware and Heuristic results, most patches could get false flags like that.) be sure to post comments with the file name and a VirusTotal report result link (higher than 30% positive result). Thank you.
