Please download and test the Beta 6 of what is to become v1.6.0 in the very near future.
For a detailed list of changes, please see
software.primefocusworld.com/sof … _notes.php
Here are the highlights:
*Multi-threaded lighting! Up to 5 times faster on 8 cores.
*Fixed the crasher with 250+ million particles introduced by the multi-threaded drawing code in Beta 5.
*New FumeFX workflow (no 2.0 support yet though, 1.2 only). A PRT FumeFX object now creates particles in the viewport that can be transformed, deformed, modified with KCMs, deleted and so on without saving to disk. Like PRT Volume supports randomized positions, multiple particles per voxel, even Normals generation from Density Gradient. Matching PRT FumeFX Exporer was added for mass-changing many PRT_FumeFX systems.
*New Surface operators and Geometry Input nodes in MagmaFlow for kd-tree-accelerated mesh-based operations (RayIntersect, NearestPoint).
*Fixed input, output and conversion of Quaternions, e.g. Orientation channel from PFlow will be saved and loaded correctly now, also allowing for Orientation deformation as demonstrated in this example: software.primefocusworld.com/sof … tation.php
*Lots of bug fixes and improvements.
Have fun!
