V-Ray Scene Import
Native V-Ray scenes can now be converted and used within Maxwell automatically. This feature is currently only supported in the standalone Maxwell Studio version.

Light Groups
Group and control lights into a single emitter using the Multilight eMixer. This helps keep MXI file sizes manageable and decreases complexity in scenes using many emitters.
