MagicaVoxel 0.99.4 Released

<div><p>MagicaVoxel, the cross platform completely free voxel editing application, just released a new version, 0.99.4 (and 0.99.4.1).&nbsp; The release is focused heavily on adding new rendering functionality.</p>
<p>Details of the release(s):</p>
<blockquote>
<ul>
<li>Renderer [0.99.4.1]
<ul>
<li><kbd>Sky-&gt;IBL</kbd>: Image Based Lighting. use “.hdr” format panorama images to light the scene. </li>
<li><kbd>Fog</kbd>: add Equi-angular sampling back to reduce noises. support fogs in othogonal views in a bounding volume. </li>
<li><kbd>Media</kbd>: enable <kbd>Sample-&gt;TR-Shadow</kbd> to allow single direct lighting; enable <kbd>Sample-&gt;MIS-Cloud</kbd> to allow multiple direct lighting (very expensive). </li>
<li><kbd>Color</kbd> all color options have their own color pickers which support HSV, RGB, H-Block and Hex values. </li>
<li><kbd>Palette Menu</kbd> right click the palette view to show the pop-up menu. </li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Renderer [0.99.4] </li>
<ul>
<li><kbd>Matter-&gt;Cloud</kbd>: Media material which supports multiple scattering inside volume. </li>
<li><kbd>Sample-&gt;MIS-GGX</kbd>: Multiple Importance Sampling (MIS) for GGX surfaces (Metal/Plastic/Glass) for better reflection. </li>
<li><kbd>Sample-&gt;TR-Shadow</kbd>: Tranlsucent Shadow which allows light passing though glass and cloud voxels. Only <kbd>Glass-&gt;Attenuation</kbd> can affect the light color. </li>
<li>can adjust <kbd>Bounce-&gt;Diffuse/Specular/Scatter</kbd> path depths separately. </li>
<li>can assign glass/cloud materials to sphere/cylinder shape voxels (for experiments only). </li>
<li>the renderer pipeline is refactored, which needs more time to improve, optimize and fix bugs. </li>
<li>some features such as fog scattering requires more researches. </li>
<li>frame drops and noises are expected. </li>
</ul>
</ul>
