Maxwell updated their renderer for Modo R2 to version 2.5100. The new updated release is featuring several changes, bug fixes and also some new features. Maxwell improved the Maxwell Fire window refresh; now window automatically refresh if a scale, rotation or translation item has been added to or removed from an item. Also the base style of Maxwell Fire window has been changed from palette to window style. The new feature which Maxwell implemented in this release is the possibility of displacement controls for auto converted materials by Maxwell Render. A short list of new improvements and fixes is below.
Improvements:
- Maxwell Fire window base style has been changed from palette to window style. (With the new window style Maxwell Fire window does not obscure the active application under OSX cocoa version.)
- Small changes on material auto-conversion (better conversion for bump maps and transparency).
- Plugin exports Gradient Environment
Bug fixes:
- Fixed: Plug-in does not collect images in the export directory if directory does not exist (in collect images to export directory mode).
- Fixed: Object Motion Blur does not work (limitation: currently plug-in does not export motion blur data for mesh deformations).
- Fixed: Plug-in mixes channel separate/embedded modes.
