Thursday, October 13th, 2011

Version 5.0.8 is a big update and is now available for download! Be sure to update to this version for all the latest bug fixes. There are a ton of changes including the fixes and changes below:

- Improved Video Card Compatibility for both Mac and Windows.

- Updated file icons.

- The ProAnimator Standalone now saves the Maximize setting for the inner interface window (Windows Only).

- The Render Test button now works for all Cameras instead of just the Main Camera.

- Fixes an issue where After Effects may run out of memory and crash during rendering.

- Fixes an issue where editing the text from a version 4 project may cause the text to shift in position.

- Fixes an issue where Reflectivity Maps created from version 4 may appear differently than in version 5.

- Fixes an issue where black pixels may appear and flicker during a render when using Fresnel materials.

- Fixes an issue where you have to re-link the Text Substitution file after re-opening the project file.

- Fix for a crash that may occur if you are working in a separate program such as Illustrator or Photoshop, and using the Save command.
