Requisites planned for Maxwell 2.6

  • Plugins should export native hair primitives when the host platform supports it
  • Plugins should export native particles when the host platform supports it
  • Support for exporting native lights automatically. (you will find some convenience functions in maxwelllights.cpp)
  • Plugins should export several cameras (not the active one only) when possible. It is mainly because some people are starting to make works in stereo, and exporting two mxs's just because the scene changes is not desirable. We will evaluate how to support stereo cameras in the future in a more automatic way.
  • It will be provided SDK support for reading multilight settings and importing them back into the host platform. It is a key feature that many people have asked for, so we have included it in the v2.6 agenda.
  • Eventually it is planned adding one more channel (normals channel). More information soon.

Requisites planned for Maxwell 2.5

  • Integration of Fire unless the host SDK makes it impossible.
