For 2 or more hair systems with only output curves (no paint effects) using the same nucleus solver, the draw of the output curves for the 2nd and subsequent hair systems was off by one frame. |

The following section describes limitations, workarounds (where applicable) about this release.
| Bug Number | Description | ||||||||||||||
| API | The following changes may require users to modify their existing scripts or plug-ins in order to preserve their functionality. | ||||||||||||||
| MAYA-35278 | Maya
2015 C++ Plug-in Wizard will generate C++ projects which still use
build toolset Visual Studio 2010. This will lead to one link error. Workaround : Upgrade the generated project to use Visual Studio 2012. |
||||||||||||||
| MAYA-29178 Illegal Node/Attribute Names |
A
valid node or attribute name consists solely of alphabetic, numeric and
underscore characters, where the first character cannot be numeric.
However, it has been possible to introduce invalid node and attribute
names in various ways, which then get saved out to the binary scene
file. In Maya 2015, if you try to load a scene containing illegal node names, the nodes will still be loaded, but a warning dialog will appear. This dialog can be disabled using the disableIncorrectNameWarning command. You can list the nodes in a scene which have illegal names using the new listNodesWithIncorrectName command. Illegal attribute names are still accepted for the moment, but Maya is currently replacing its own illegal names with legal ones. The changes so far are to the volumeLight, pointLight, directionalLight, areaLight, spotLight and nonExtendedLightShapeNode node types. For all of these, the following attributes have been renamed:
In old scenes, the attributes will be renamed when the scene is loaded and an alias will be set up so that the old name still works. However, you are still advised to update any scripts and plug-ins you have to use the new names. |
||||||||||||||
| Namespace
and Object Name Validation |
Namespaces and object names are now validated when a command's arguments are parsed, and not when it is executed. This means that some commands which were silently failing before due to invalid names will now cause your script to halt. | ||||||||||||||
| Transitive
Header Includes |
Some
of the header files included by other API header files have been
replaced with forward declarations. For example, MArrayDataBuilder.h
used to include MDataHandle.h.
That include has been removed and replaced with a forward declaration
of MDataHandle,
which is all that MArrayDataBuilder.h
really requires. If you have code which has been relying on these transitive header inclusions, then you will have to modify your code directly to include the headers it needs. |
||||||||||||||
| Viewport
2.0 |
The
MUIDrawManager::FontSize enum has been removed and the setFontSize()
method now takes as its only parameter an unsigned int giving the pixel
size of the font. The kDefaultFontSize and kSmallFontSize symbols from the FontSize enum still exist and retain their meanings, but they now contain the pixel sizes of their corresponding fonts and reside in an unnamed enum. So if you were passing one of these to setFontSize(), then that code does not have to be changed. However, if your code refers to the FontSize enum itself (for example, to declare a variable or parameter) then it must be changed to unsigned int instead. |
||||||||||||||
| Other |
The
adsk::Data::Accessor::performRead() pure virtual method now takes
wantedStructures and wantedAssociations params. Previously, derived
classes simply read all the structures and associations in the file.
Now they must limit themselves to only those specified by the two new
parameters. With the switch to the 10.8.* SDK on OS X we lose C++ access to many Cocoa data types. To work around this, the MGLContext type returned by M3dView::display() has changed from NSOpenGLContext* to void*, and the MNativeWindowHdl type returned by M3dView::applicationShell(), M3dView::window() and MQtUtil::nativeWindow() has changed from NSView* to void*. The handlesApplyEdits() method has been removed from MFnAssembly and MPxAssembly and the applyEdits() method has been removed from MPxAssembly. Since these were non-functional stubs, there is no loss of functionality. The calling signature of MFnDependencyNode::addExternalContentForFileAttr() has changed and is not compatible with that in 2014. |

| Bifrost | |||||||||||||||
| MAYA-30813 | Liquid voxels don't show up in non-perspective cameras. | ||||||||||||||
| MAYA-32763 | The
default value of 0.5 for Master Voxel Size may be too small to generate
voxels on some emitting meshes below a specific scale, including
primitives. For example, no voxels will be generated for a default
polySphere with radius=1. Workaround : To generate voxels, either lower the Master Voxel Size or increase the size of the sphere. |
||||||||||||||
| MAYA-32869 | Bifrost
scene is getting evaluated over and over during batch render when runup
is enabled. Workaround: Disable Runup. |
||||||||||||||
| MAYA-33411 | Bifrost:
Separate thickness required for shell and solid. The default thickness for an emitter is 0. This is good for a solid but for a shell it produces no results. Must be set to at least 1. For colliders, the default thickness is set to 1. This is fine for solids, but for shells, even at high resolutions this results in penetrating liquids. It must be set to at least |
||||||||||||||
| MAYA-33644 | Bifrost:
Resulting Simulation motion seems incorrect and seems to be due to
Collision objects Conversion
Thickness. Fluid will react with a surface tension type behavior even when stickiness is set to zero. Workaround: Set Collision > Thickness to 0 while keeping Collision > Mode at Solid. |
||||||||||||||
| MAYA-33722 | Bifrost:
Interior Particle Density requires a hard set minimum limit of 1 for
Bifrost particles to appear. Workaround:
Make sure Interior Particle Density has a value of 1.0 or
greater so that you have at least 1 particle per voxel. Values below 1
will not emit particles.
|
||||||||||||||
| MAYA-33828 | Currently, setting keys on attributes found on the bifrostLiquidContainer node is not a supported workflow. | ||||||||||||||
| MAYA-34114 | Bifrost
will still render even after disabling the display of particles and
voxels in the Bifrost Shape Workaround : Hide the Bifrost object (set visibility=off). |
||||||||||||||
| MAYA-34177 | The default maximum particle viewport display number is set to 1 million. This creates repetitive looking patterns for higher resolution simulations. You can increase the number for a more accurate representation of the simulation while respecting the limits of your graphics card. | ||||||||||||||
| MAYA-34338 | Certain mesh colliders will crash Maya | ||||||||||||||
| MAYA-34412 |
Certain
non manifold geometry containing intersecting surfaces will
fail to emit bifrost particles.
Workaround: Rebuild the offending geometry. In some cases, you can clean up the mesh by relaxing the geometry such that there are no intersecting vertices. |

| MAYA-34435 | Cannot perform render layer override on any Bifrost nodes | ||||||||||||||
| Bullet | |||||||||||||||
| MAYA-34627 | Alembic
export corrupts rotation data. This affect Rigid Sets only. Rigid Body
Shapes do not have this issue. Workaround : Set the transforms of the ancestors to the identity transform (freeze transform). The leaf nodes are exporting with world transforms and not the local transforms. |
||||||||||||||
| Cache Representation - Baked Geometry | |||||||||||||||
| MAYA-31013 | Maya
will crash during Windows remote desktop session if you try and import
a gpu cache. Workaround : 1. On the host system, set Viewport 2.0 as the default renderer for the workspace. You cannot do this using the client. 2. Access Maya on the host system using the client. |
||||||||||||||
| MAYA-31525 | Errors
may appear in the Output Window and Script Editor when background
loading gpuCache cache scenes in the Legacy Default Viewport on Windows
with Quadro series graphic cards. This is an issue happening on the
Nvidia driver side and it has been fixed in driver 332.50 Workaround : Upgrade to drivers of version 332.50 or higher. |

| MAYA-22876 | As of Maya
2015, the calculation used to derive the Input Mesh Attract
setting has been updated. Previous to version 2015, the values set for
Substeps attribute in the Solver Attributes section of the nucleus
Attribute Editor tab created too pronounced an influence on the mesh
attraction. (This change to the Input Mesh Attract calculation applies
to both Locking and Non-Locking options.) If you have an Attribute preset that uses this setting and you want to retain the pre-2015 behavior, apply it to the nCloth and then run the command: convertPost2014ClothInputAttract nClothShape1; Re-save your preset with these new nCloth values. This changes the input attract values back to the previous (pre-2015) behavior derived from the nucleus substeps values. |

| MAYA-22740 | The
following method has been deprecated: MPxContext::doEnterRegion( MEvent &, MHWRender::MUIDrawManager&, const MHWRender::MFrameContext&) Please use the following method instead: MPxContext::doEnterRegion(MEvent &) If you are currently using the first method in your plug-in, you may need to update and recompile your plug-in. |
||||||||||||||
| MAYA-23695 | The
saveImage command does not work as expected for shaded objects. Workaround : You can execute the following script to take a snapshot of the current scene view and save it as a endSnap.jpg file, to the \images directory of your project directory. This workaround can be used for both the Legacy Default Viewport and Viewport 2.0. tring $ws=`workspace -q -fullName`"; evalDeferred "string $wsp=$ws + \"/images\""; evalDeferred "sysFile -makeDir $wsp"; evalDeferred "string $wspf = $wsp + \"/endSnap.jpg\""; evalDeferred "refresh -cv -fe \"jpg\" -fn $wspf;"; |

| MAYA-24576 | When depth peeling is selected as the transparency algorithm for Viewport 2.0 (in the Maya Hardware 2.0 Render Settings window), multi-sample anti-aliasing only affects opaque objects but not transparent objects. | ||||||||||||||
| MAYA-30985 | Occasionally, when your instances have negative scale and you have other features such as backface culling enabled, your lighting may appear incorrect. In general, if you have negative scales and your instances appear incorrect, disable GPU Instancing. | ||||||||||||||
| MAYA-34989 | When switching between the Shade All and Shade Selected Items viewport modes, if either the wireframe or shaded object disappears, you can workaround the issue by disabling Consolidate World in the Viewport 2.0 settings. | ||||||||||||||
| MAYA-35665 | Older
drivers for 1800M may crash Maya. Workaround : Update to a newer driver. |
