Bug fixes

V-Ray

• Crash rendering scene with ForestPro 7;
• Crash when a VRayBumpMtl is applied on an object and another VRayBumpMtl is used as an Override Mtl;
• Error building Embree voxel tree when "Conserve memory" is enabled in certain scenes;
• Increased memory consumption with displacement in specific cases;
• No illumination on surrounding geometry from PhoenixFD/VRayVolumeGrid's Fire Lights;
• Underwater lighting is missing when the camera is under the water;

V-Ray IPR

• Incorrect rendering during IPR when switching from None to Volumetric/SSS translucency in VRayMtl;
• VRayPhysicalCamera Tilt & Shift is incorrect since 5.1.00;

V-Ray GPU

• Crash with big light cache subdivs;
• Texture on objects with normal displacement appear smudged with on-demand mip-mapping;

VRayCryptoMatte

• Regression with node custom attributes;

VRayDisplacementMod

• Crash with on specific geometry with Editable poly modifier;

VRayICC

• .icc files are not loaded through the DR assets transferring;

VRayLight

• Random modes for textures applied to VRayLight copies produce non-randomized lighting;

VRayMtl

• Crash when setting reflection/refraction depth too high;

VRayProxy

• Newly created proxies with "preview from file" use the default cube for viewport selection instead of the preview geometry;

VRayUVWRandomizer

• Crash when switching between different texture instances;

.vrscene exporter

• Archive as ZIP is greyed out if we open another scene to export;
• Archiving to zip or directory merges the assets instead of overriding them;
• Missing geometry in exported scenes when there is a VRayDistanceTex and VRayDisplacementMod on EditablePoly;
• Tile UV mapping of Bercon Tiles is not working properly;

V-Ray Material library browser
