MtoA 3.1.2 is a feature release, including the following improvements:
Shaders
- New aiOsl shader, that allows to write inline osl code and use it in a shading tree.
- Added Sheen parameter in aiToon and in the list of AOVs.
- Added "Azimuthal Roughness" to aiStandardHair.
- Added Velvet preset for aiStandardSurface.
- Fixed crash when assigning a shader to a custom shape procedural.
RenderView / IPR
- Always add default persp camera to the list of available cameras in ARV.
- Fixed error "Arnold RenderView is not unique" that could prevent from using ARV when opening an existing scene.
- Removing objects inside Render Setup collections wasn't refreshed in IPR.
- Enabling / disabling collections from Render Setup wasn't refreshed in IPR.
- Deleting an assignment in aiSetParameter wasn't refreshed in IPR.
Other
Added arguments to Maya batch render to output Stats and Profile info.
Set Overrides were not working on Standins.
Upgraded Cryptomatte to 1.1.0 which contains the fix: "Preview AOVs are now always displayed in display drivers, even when preview_in_exr is disabled".
Upgraded OIIO (2.0.1) and OSL (1.10.1).
Incompatible Changes
- Curves first segment wasn't rendered with the right amount of CVs. This was mostly visible for low samples and is now fixed. Existing scenes might, therefore, render differently.
