Be sure to read the Arnold core release notes from version 7.2.2.1 to 7.2.5.0 to see all the performance improvements and other changes that comes "for free" with the updated core.
SItoA specific improvements
- Support for multi-output shaders in the automatic shader building.
- Support alpha in the PNG driver (new in v7.2.4 core)
- Added
skip_alpha
setting to the TIFF driver. - Small UI enhancements in Render Settings.
Incompatible / Behavior changes
- The
unpremult_alpha
parameter in the TIFF settings has been renamed tooutput_tiff_unpremult_alpha
. - The
state_float
,state_int
,state_vector
anddistance
shader now have multiple outputs, and the main output of those shaders have been renamed. This means that they will be disconnected when opening old scenes. Just connect the first port of them to get the old look back.

- None
Build system fixes / changes:

Passes testsuite.
