Other features include new AOVs and display modes for troubleshooting scenes, the option to generate Playblasts from the 3D view, and support for SeExpr expressions, layered Alembic files and the USD format.

The update will introduce a complete revamp of the lighting model that aims to do away with conventional CG light types entirely, and improves rendering of matte surfaces and handling of anti-aliasing.

Isotropix has previewed some of the new features coming up in Clarisse iFX 4.0, the next major update to its set dressing, lighting and rendering software. Scroll down for the commercial release and pricing changes.
