• Bugfix in flat mode for hermite curves.
• Added EMBREE_CURVE_SELF_INTERSECTION_AVOIDANCE_FACTOR cmake option to control self intersection avoidance for flat curves.
• Performance fix when instantiating motion blurred scenes. The application should best use two (or more) time steps for an instance that instantiates a motion blurred scene.
• Fixed AVX512 compile issue with GCC 6.1.1.
• Fixed performance issue with rtcGetGeometryUserData when used during rendering.
• Bugfix in length of derivatives for grid geometry.
• Added BVH8 support for motion blurred curves and lines. For some workloads this increases performance by up to 7%.
• Fixed rtcGetGeometryTransform to return the local to world transform.
• Fixed bug in multi segment motion blur that caused missing of perfectly axis aligned geometry.
• Reduced memory consumption of small scenes by 4x.
• Reduced temporal storage of grid builder.
