EnhancementsToon tone-mapping:You can now drive the hue and saturation of tonemapping in the toon shader. The toon shader has four new parameters that complement the existing value-based tonemapping parameters. The connected shader's U coordinate drives direct light hue and the V coordinate drives saturation, which enables textures like those below to map the toon shader's response to colored lighting (Note: make sure to set the image's wrapping mode to clamp and filter to closest for best results) (ARNOLD-10687). These toon parameters include:
- edge_tonemap_hue_saturation
- silhouette_tonemap_hue_saturation
- base_tonemap_hue_saturation
- specular_tonemap_hue_saturation
Color palette images -> base_tonemap_hue_saturation
Better volume denoising:Denoising volumes now produces better results. The changes in how volume albedo is computed help the denoiser to keep more details. Ringing artifacts when objects are viewed against the background are also reduced, and a new N_denoise AOV fixes some denoising artifacts visible in low-AA renders. (ARNOLD-14936, ARNOLD-13071)
Many-lights support for light linking:Global light sampling is now applied per group of lights linked to a shape. That can improve rendering performance for scenes with light linking. The ALab scene now renders twice as fast when you use Global Light Sampling. (ARNOLD-14985)
Improved Standard Hair on GPU:The GPU renderer now supports the extra_depth parameter. This enables accurate rendering of blond or bright-colored hair without raising GI_specular_depth.
Improved volume albedo AOV:Volume albedo values are now more physically-based. This improves volume denoising and any LPE AOV using volume albedo is now much more useful for compositing. For backwards compatibility, you can set the new global option legacy_volume_albedo to true. (ARNOLD-13071)
Bake Geometry can now bake to USDSubdivided and displaced geometry can now be baked to USD, ASS, or OBJ. (MTOA-1918)
Improvements to the Arnold RenderView snapshots workflow
- Snapshots by default now point to a folder based on the current scene name. You can use a custom folder instead, and this custom location will be saved with the scene and used instead of the default scene folder (MTOA-1923)
- Snapshots can be moved to a different folder. When you set a new snapshosts folder, or load a scene with a different snapshot folder, a Move option is displayed asking if you want to move the current snapshots. (MTOA-1932)
- A new Enable Snapshots Folder option that can be queried or set via MEL or Python
// Get the value of the Enable Snapshots Folder option
arnoldRenderView -get "Enable Snapshots Folder";
// Result: 1
//
// Set the Enable Snapshots Folder option
arnoldRenderView -opt "Enable Snapshots Folder";
Improved OSL interoperability:The color4, color2, vector4, vector2, and matrix33 are now supported as output types of OSL shaders when connected to Arnold shaders. Additionally, Arnold shaders that output RGBA or Vector2 types can now be directly connected to OSL shader color4 and vector2 input parameters. Those features make it easier to mix Arnold and MaterialX standard library shader nodes. (ARNOLD-1398 ARNOLD-14692)
Update OpenVDB to version 11.0:Arnold now uses the latest OpenVDB library. For the list of changes between OpenVDB version 7.1.1 and version 11.0, see the release notes. (ARNOLD-11217)
Change MtoA Windows installer to MSIMtoA now has a more integrated installer using the Microsoft Installer Framework (MTOA-1816)
USD Enhancements
Cylinder lights- Cylinder lights are saved as UsdLuxCylinderLight primitives - usd#1894
API changes
Geometry baking API:You can now bake subdivided and displaced geometry. You can save the baked geometry either in another universe or you can change the geometry in-place in the same universe. Typically, you would bake geometry by looping over scene nodes with AtNodeIterator. Currently, geometry baking applies to polymesh nodes only.(ARNOLD-2815)
AI_API AtNode* AiNodeGetProcessedGeometry(AtNode* source_node, AtUniverse *dest_universe);
Incompatible Changes
Save usdz files to a usdz_tx folder:Previously when reading a .usdz file, any generated .tx files would be saved to a folder named.tmp. The .tmp extension may have led users to remove this folder prematurely, resulting in extra work the next time the usdz was rendered. These files will now be written to and read from a folder name.usdz_tx. (ARNOLD-14999)
Improved volume AOV:The volume albedo AOV and LPE scattering event has been improved. For backwards compatibility, you can set the new global option legacy_volume_albedo to true. (ARNOLD-13071)

Arnoldis an advanced cross-platform rendering solution, developed by Solid Angle and used by renowned customers in film, television and animation. It was developed as a photo-realistic, physically-based ray tracing alternative to traditional scanline based rendering software for CG animation. Arnold uses cutting-edge algorithms that make the most effective use of your computer's hardware resources and was designed to easily adapt to existing pipelines. It is built on top of a pluggable node system, so users can extend and customize the system by writing new shaders, cameras, filters and output driver nodes, as well as procedural geometry, custom ray types and user-defined geometric data. The primary goal of the Arnold architecture is to provide a complete solution as a primary renderer for animation and visual effects.
Arnold for Mayais an advanced Monte Carlo ray tracing renderer built for the demands of feature-length animation and visual effects. It uses the Open Shading Language to define the materials and textures. Arnold for Maya (or MtoA) provides a bridge to the Arnold renderer from within Maya's standard interface.

This tutorial shows how to use Bifrost quad points scattered on a head model in combination with Arnold shaders to create a 2D paint style.
Solid Angleis leading provider of rendering software for animation and visual effects. The Arnold team believe that accurately and efficiently computing light transport in CG scenes is the best way to create stunning imagery for films and TV. Developers strive to provide clients with the best rendering tools to efficiently create realistic images. Solid Angle is a wholly owned subsidiary of Autodesk Inc, and has its offices in Madrid and London.
