Some new materials and functions:

falsecolor

Displaying falsecolor information on selected objects only. Falsecolor output directly available in the previewer (no postprocessing necessary).

mistfunc

'Hack' for creating nice visual impressions of participating media with varying density. (Workaround: enables modifying the scattering albedo with a pattern).

finishfunc

Enables to modify the 'surface finish' properties (specularity, roughness, transmission, specular transmission) with a pattern.

transglow

Transparent glow (ambient calculation-only) material for use with alpha-channel-image mapping (color4picts)
