Full change log:
New features:
(*) VRayEdgesTex: Add mapped multiplier to control the rounded corners' radius;
Modified features:
(*) V-Ray: Add a warning when there are Render Elements with filtering off and Progressive Sampler;
(*) V-Ray: Avoid saving the "Shademap export" helper channel to image files;
(*) V-Ray: Render Raytrace material as black to avoid interfering with shading;
(*) VRayOSL: Increase width of the string widgets;
(*) VRaySamplerInfo: Add tangent and bitangent modes in object space;
(*) VRayVolumeGrid: Copy-paste support for render gradients and curves;
(*) VFB: Revert the VFB zoom modificator to Shift+Ctrl+LMB/RMB;
Bug fixes:
