demo questions and v3

hi,

first of all greetings to the forum members and developers.
i am writing here because i do not have access to max plugin area and the support is not answering my questions.
will try and keep it short.

- is there any speed difference between V2. and V3? what is to be expected for those coming from using v2 in terms of performance?

- how is volumetric stuff handled within max?
phoenix fd has a openvdb loader which i intend to use. will this work or will there be a otoy loader for volumes?

- displacement and bump material do not work together in the trial version, not even with the mix material fix. will this be amended in v3?

- i have read that max 2017 plugin will come in the days following the release. any concrete info when we might use it?

- will there be substances support?

- rendertime subdivision is ignored on my end. is this normal?

i want to pull the trigger on the license but am honestly weary about some aspects and would like to make sure what i am buying into.
now i have to say that octane blew me away both by speed and quality but i wasted far to much money on renderers tbh.

thanks

Few day after may 15th, we'll see the difference of performance between v2 and v3. ;)

It should be faster in most scenes. That has been the general consensus from our own testing and user feedback so far.
