The Light Sampling display option now affects the environment light occlusion sampling for speed/quality tradeoffs.

Clarified comment inside of vellum solver overlap creation wrangles.

Fixed an issue with pdg.WorkItemHolder.addWorkItemFromJSON not correctly adding output files to the new work item when used in a static processor node. This issue also affected the JSON Input TOP node.

Materials with transparency set to 1.0 will now render specular reflections in the viewer with HQ Lighting and Medium/High Transparency. They previously didn't display at all.

The fireball and bonfire have been slightly tweaked.

Add HOM functions to `hou.HDADefinition` for maxNumOutputs. This is to be analogous to the functions for maxNumInputs.

Fixed a bug where the uniform scaling knob on the axial style scale handle did not work properly when the handle had a large apparent world space size.

The Geometry Spreadsheet no longer adds errors to the status bar when its SOP fails to cook. This resulted in unexpected red-banners in the status bar, instead this relies on the nodes own flagging for error reporting.

Fixed a bug in the DOP Import SOP's "Create Points to Represent Objects" mode where the pivot location could be incorrect when Preserve World Space Positions was enabled. This occurred when there were object level transforms on the original source objects, but the DOP Import SOP was in a different geometry object.

Improved performance of UDIM filename expansion in VEX. This will improve rendering performance for mantra and karma.

Fixed an HQueue bug where a job sometimes became indefinitely attached to a client machine. This led to "Client <hostname> is reporting job XXXXXX which does not exist." errors when the job was deleted from the system.
