exrTrader V1.3 is available now in our downloads section.

exrTrader V1.3 is available for Windows 32bit/64bit as well as a Mac OS X CFM and UB.

The Mac OS X version of exrTrader is now available as a DMG.

This is a maintenance update to exrTrader.

Changes since V1.2:

• Added support for the refraction buffer in LightWave 3D V9.6
• Added "flip" option for single channels
• Added "Luminance as RGB" option when saving greyscale buffers to single images
• Added a new naming option for output files
• Tweaked the preset mechanism to allow for for longer names as well as names containing "special" characters.

Important for note for Mac OS X UB users

The path to the storage of global presets has changed in the UB version of exrTrader as of version 1.3.
It used to be the installation directory of LightWave 3D, now it is "/Library/Preferences/LightWave3D"
If you used global presets, please copy the "SimplePreset" folder from your LightWave 3D folder to "/Library/Preferences/LightWave3D"
