Veras - Release 1.4.0.1

To install the new version, please use the link in the post above.

Features

  • Increased max resolution for trial accounts to 1024x1024

Improvements

  • Limited the lowest resolution for the V5 Render Engine to 1024x1024 for better render output
  • Updated the web browser icon for Veras

Loving the new update… learning how to utilise full potential, but am already getting much better results, and can control outcomes a bit more, perspective is working more accurate, and the creative part is architectural not purely artistic… which is a big win! Congratulations team!

  • corrected the Render Selection behavior to be similar to V4 in functionality
    • before this update, drastically changing a color of a material to a different color was not possible
  • updated the Material Override values to work better with the V5 engine
