Version 3.1.9 - June 8th 2015
- added support for Max 2016
- if the time output mode is set to single, Export MXS writes a single frame even if animation is requested
- pack'n'go resolves missing file paths in the same way the renderer does, before attempting to copy the files
- the exporter looks for missing IOR files and MXM files in the same way it does for textures
- fixed: pack'n'go crashed with some types of materials
- fixed: the hue adjustment parameter was inverted in the bitmap preview window
- fixed: crash on export when the Maxwell extensions cannot be loaded
- fixed: the animation setting in the export MXS dialog and maxwellExportMXS command was not taken into account
- renamed the "appendFrameNrToImg" flag for the maxwellExportMXS command to "appendFrameNr", because it also affects the output MXS file name, not just the image files
- added support for extra sampling
- updated the range of the devignetting parameter to match Studio
- added MAXScript functions for manipulating visibility flags: maxwellGetObjectFlag and maxwellSetObjectFlag
- added support for UDIM (tiled textures)
- the MXS extension is always appended to the name of the output scene files, even when they already contain a dot in their names
- added a frame offset parameter for the volumetric object
- fixed: clicking the "hide to camera in shadow pass" checkbox could set it to an indeterminate state (checked but grayed out)
- the environment intensity multiplier is exported to Maxwell so that the value correctly appears in the multilight panel
- renamed default item in the FIRE window camera menu to make its purpose clearer
- the material displacement component is exported even when it is disabled, so that it does not disappear when editing a material with MXED
- fixed: the density parameter for the scatter modifier did not allow decimals
- fixed: wrong file names for custom alpha channels
- fixed: crash in Max 2012 when changing a viewport to ActiveShade
- fixed: crash in some cases when closing the object properties dialog when Maxwell is not the active renderer
- fixed: viewport slowdown when using many MxLights set to correlated color emission
- fixed: the range of the emitter correlated color and coating thickness parameters did not match Studio
- added support for multiple selection in the light linking UI
- added support for per-material custom alphas
- decreased the time needed to open the object properties dialog on scenes with many referenced materials
- fixed: the "use global settings" texture parameter was not set correctly when importing a MXM file
- fixed: constant density volumetric objects were not exported correctly
- fixed: floating reflections/shadows were not working when rendering in draft mode
- fixed: visibility flags were not exported correctly for Max instances
- fixed: incorrect names exported for Max instances, causing blocked emitters to break if they were instanced (among other things)
Version 3.0.35 - October 14th 2014
- added the maxwellGetCorrelatedColor() MAXScript function
- fixed: maxwell MAXScript functions didn't work anymore
- assistant materials retaui their name when converted to layered materials
- added the Hair appearance for the material assistant
- the plug-in no longer reserves a license when Max starts. The license is acquired when exporting or rendering for the first time.
- fixed: wrong UVs when importing a mesh with multiple UV sets from a MXS file
- fixed: the flip flags on the global normal map of the Maxwell material were not exported correctly
- fixed: wrong Nd for the the ghost BSDF component created for MxLights
- fixed: the Maxwell object properties rollup for MxLight objects was truncated
- fixed: area light rectangles created by MxLight objects were twice as big as they should have been
- fixed: emitter textures (HDR and projected image) were not copied by Pack'n'Go
- Pack'n'go now exports asset files introduced with the new v3 features
- fixed: Maxscript error when calling MaxwellRenderer()
- fixed: assitant materials couldn't be cloned
- fixed: maxwell material import and export functions couldn't be called from Maxscript
- fixed: axis conversion wasn't applied to scatter values
- fixed: converting assistant materials into layered materials removed top level multi materials
- fixed: No viewport display for maxwell nodes
- fixed: Crash in mxlight
- fixed: Displacement was always exported as on
- fixed: Location settings were disabled when the sun was turned off
- fixed: Maxscript error when cameras contain newline characters
