Hi, as mentioned in a title i have a work (face) done in arnold 4 with alsurface and i would like to convert it to Arnold 5, is that possible? Cause when i want to load the work into A5 package alsurface is obviously not avaiable so i can't use anrold converter.
I am also very interested in getting more information on how to best transfer Arnold 1-4 Shader Networks s to Arnold 5.
I would be very thankful if anyone could recommend detailed documentations, tutorials on how to preserve the overall aesthetics and how to convert/replace/rebuild deprecated or incompatible nodes in the best possible way?
There is a brief summary on some key points somewhere on arnoldpedia, but it's really more of a general note and somehow quite hidden.
