MoonRay for Blender0.1.26

Highlights in this version

HDRI sun

Small suns in HDRI skies

A sun a few texels across lit scenes up to 71 times too bright. MoonRay's light sampling is fixed and matches Cycles.

Ellipse

Every area light shape

Ellipse and stretched disk area lights now light the scene, and Spread keeps a light's power as Cycles does.

N-gons

Concave faces, right

L-shaped cards, stars and floor plans render as Blender splits them, instead of covering their notches.

Everything else is in the changelog.
