5.2.1.49 Release Notes

RELEASE DATE: Tue, 06 Jul 2021

Maxwell

Changes

  • The default value for the denoiser Feature Influence parameter has been changed from 0.6 to 0.25 so it preserves better the texture details.

Fixes

  • MXI files greater than 2GB and generated from v5.2.0 could not be read.

  • MXI files with region render didn’t open correctly in Maxwell.

Known Issues

  • MaxwellScatter extension removes MaxwellScatter extension from the scattered objects (if they have), so nested scattering is avoided.

  • Benchwell stops sometimes before the benchmark test has finished, in some cases. We don’t allow uploading the results then.

 

Maxwell Studio and MXED

  • Substance Painter extension: added Displacement subdivision and Displacement height configuration fields in order to control the displacement without having to convert the material to advanced.
