v0.4.5
95f09c9

The v0.4.5 release contains the Viewport 2.0 MM Renderer and Maya 2024 support for Windows. MM Renderer supports the ability to see MM Image Plane nodes behind objects with the useBackground shader or "hold out" attribute enabled.

NOTE: It is not recommended to mix this release with v0.3.x. It is recommended to use v0.4.5 only on new projects as there may be some incompatibility opening Maya Scenes created with v0.3.x using v0.4.x - if this is an acceptable problem, feel free to mix and match as needed.

The mmSolver release for Maya 2024 on Linux is only supported on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 8, or Rocky Linux 8 and will not work on RHEL 7 or CentOS 7.

Fixes / Changes:

  • MM Renderer (#231)
    • First stable release of MM Renderer with stripped back feature set to minimal features.
    • Fixed MM ImagePlane nodes rendering "behind" all objects when used with the native Maya 'useBackground' shader. This allows hidden line effects in Maya with real-time lens (un)distortion.
    • Ability for custom plug-in nodes to be rendered in 'useBackground' shader, same as native Maya imagePlane nodes. See #231 (comment) for details.
  • Support for Maya 2024 build on Windows.
  • Minor fixes to build scripts.

Known Problems

  • Markers are not distorted by Lens Distortion in Maya 2023.0, and 2023.1.
    • Please upgrade to (at least) Maya 2023.2.
  • MM Renderer incorrectly displays selection in Maya 2022.0.
    • Please upgrade to (at least) Maya 2022.1.
  • Solving Lens Distortion does not act correctly in some cases - this is being actively developed and improved - please report bugs.
  • There are lens distortion update issues in the Maya viewport with Markers and Lines node types.
  • Compatibility with Maya scenes with mmSolver v0.3.x nodes may not work as expected - please report issues.
  • The mmImagePlaneShape does not work the same as Maya native image planes with the useBackground/hold out options in Viewport 2.0.

Please report any bugs or suggestions you find in this release here and clearly state the version of mmSolver you are testing.
