      Manage Assets

      Now you can manage asset files for Material Libraries and 3d Models directly from the Explorer tab.
      Available all required operation for manage asset files such as “Rename”, “Set Path”, “Browse”, “Copy to” and etc. All almost what you can find on Asset Files tab.
      For excluding from processing some files, such as Render Elements use the menu-item “Exclude”.

      FStorm Render
      Also the new version supports for the new 3ds Max Renderer: FStormRender – creation of Proxy, IES lights and materials what are compatible with the FStorm renderer.
      Support for RedShift and Arnold renderers will be added in the future releases.
      However, Project Manager will be useful to the users of these renderers and now,
      because its basic capabilities are not limited to the creation of Proxy and IES.

      Add Materials from Material Library
      New ability to save materials from the Material Editor.
