Hello everyone!

Happy to make my first post here

I just installed today's nightly 20170426 so I understand that the VRay for Blender addon should be 3.5 instead of 3.0 like they were until a few months ago. In the addons folder I have vb30 though, not vb35, and in the addons section of user prefs it says Render: V-Ray For Blender 3.0. I have also updated the exporter which is now v3.2155 ans I still seem to have only vb30. Is it a typo or for some reason the addon has been reverted to vb30 in the nightlies? Or is it just me?

I am just checking to make sure that everything is ok. I have VRay Standalone 3.5.04 (the latest up to date release). Everything else is fine as far as I can tell for the moment. Thank you!

The python addon is still named vb30.

The 'sRGB' option has been removed from Render -> System -> Exporter. Now the exporter uses the blender setting: Scene -> Color Management -> Display Device.

Hi guys,
Fog bias seems not to be working in the last version. No matter what value I use, the result is always the same.

Tested with this nightlies builds:
V-Ray: vraystd_adv_36101_x64_vc101_hwlic_27448
Blender: vrayblender35-2.78-ae32ee9-x86_64-windows

Sorry guys, my fault.
Fog bias is working fine (for some reason it is less sensible to values than it used to be).

I see the Vray for Blender builds are continuing to be updated, but there are no recent standalone builds (last one was June) Does it matter which standalone build we use with V/B? I'd like to submit some bug reports, but I'm not sure what is the latest setup I should be using. I'm using a May 25 vray3.5 build for the standalone. Is it OK to use the latest Blender nightly with this install, or should I use the June vray 3.6 standalone install?

Ah, thanks! Didn't think to look there, I'd gotten so used to grabbing the latest nightly.
