Thanks for the reply Vlado.

When 2.4 is ready, will there be an official announcement? I just want to make sure I get it as soon as it's up.

Yep.

Hello,

The 2.4 builds were removed from the download section on our web site because we found out that they needed more refinement. The release of 2.4 was moved back in time so we could synchronize features between versions, fix more bugs, etc.
Today we have released 2.3 version for all platforms.
Apologies for the inconvenience and thank you for understanding.

Linux and Mac but no Windows???????

MAC builds were made available shortly after Windows and Linux builds. Please check again, you should be able to see them.

We will have to check with our developers team about that.

Just checked. This is what I see:

Thanks for the screenshot. Makes it easier for us to help.
The builds that have Snow Leopard in their name are the builds for MAC. Snow Leopard is one OS version's name for MAC.

I don't understand your reply. My original question was where are the builds for Windows? Your reply was Mac builds will follow Windows and Linux? I see Mac builds, I see Linux builds.... I don't see Windows builds.

I assume we have a series of misunderstandings here and you meant to say that Windows will follow Mac and Linux releases, which you have obviously posted. No worries but I do have a different question. I had installed your 2.4 release. Will the 2.3 release properly install over the 2.4 or should I uninstall the 2.4 before trying to install the 2.3?

It is a glitch in the website mirroring stuff. It would be best to email us to vraymaya@chaosgroup.com and if needed our support guys can get you the builds in other ways, although I expect that the website will be fine very shortly too.

The V-Ray installer will remove any previous version automatically so there is no need to uninstall anything manually (although of course you can do that you wish).

Apologies, I didn't read your question correctly and thought you wanted MAC builds.
Just checked with our IT team and confirmed that all mirrors will have all the files in a couple of hours. US mirror is already synced.

Regarding Maya 2014 Extension: Probably V-Ray will be compatible but to make sure we will have to do more tests.
