Hello, great to see new release. unfortunately, cannot update as the launcher is stuck at updating at 0%. Tried in different machines but ends up in same result. see attached pic.

This has been the way since the initial full release. As a workaround, we download the installer and reinstall the whole software. It seems ver. 1.6.2 is not yet added to download option.

Hopefully, d5 team will be able to find a way to fix the issue at earliest.

Thank you

Team Maverick

Please, update the download link for installer to current version.

Hi John, sorry unfortunately wasn’t able to update at all. my whole process was: Installed-update-stuck-force_close-crashed-reinstalled-repeat same process. I gave up and continued using 1.6.1 version as it was working.
my email address is: zinoarchi@yahoo.com
location: Dhaka, Bangladesh

p.s.: as i was searching for reasons for not updating i found in the log that the updater was trying to contact usa server and getting timed out. in the configuration file i noted: region is set to usa. Hope this may enable you to delve further into the matter.

Hi, thanks for your detailed answer! This message is very important for us! I have sent you a installation package, please check your email and have a try.

still no multibouncing for GI… no material emision singlesided or self illumination only, no background override, no interface scaling for 4k monitors…

multi bouncing is available in output. Please try to render an image.

Thank you

where?
