  • Missing features in 2.44.01

    Hi guys, was wondering if somebody could help. We are currently using Vray for Maya version 2.25.01.23440 and there seems be some some features that are no longer available in 2.44.01.
    Here are some examples:
    On Vray Rectangular Lights there is Directional and Directional Preview in the older build. There is other, smaller thing, but this is one of the big ones that we currently used. Is it now added in some other way?

    Thanks,
    -Chris

    What build exactly are you using, because there is no such thing as 2.44.01.

        Hi,

        Build 2.25.01.23440 is V-ray nightly.
        Build 2.40.01 is the latest official one and it doesn't include some features available in the nightly builds like the light Directional parameters.

          Thanks for the info Tashko...
          We are using this feature extensively.. Any probabilities that it might be added back in the next nightly.

            Just to clarify what Tashko is saying:
            Even though 2.25 is a lower number than 2.4, 2.25 is actually a higher build than 2.4 because 2.25 is a nightly.

              Just some clarification, the version that we are looking at is 2.40.01.

                Thanks for the clarification.
                As an addition I would like to add that the new features available in the Nightly Builds are not parsed to Official Builds right away.
                The reason for this is that they haven't been tested extensively and some unwanted bugs could occurs - and this wouldn't be very good if happens in the official release.
                After certain period of time when we are sure that these features are working properly we move them also into official builds.
                In any case where something is available in the Nightly Build but not in the Official one - the only option would be to use Nightly Build if this feature is important for your work-flow.
