Fixed bugs
Alembic
RF-2776 Major - UV's are not correctly stored.
RF-2769 Major - Stitcher relies on correct padding to sort files -
RF-2768 Major - Store velocity in all polymeshes as builtin (not only as arb geom) -
RF-2754 Bug - Different animations with the same alembic node makes stitcher crash
RF-2783 Bug - The "Geometry scale" global parameter is not applied correctly when loading cache alembic particle files for "Liquid-Particles" emitters.
RF-2780 Bug - Objects loaded from alembic files don't have valid texture coordinates even thought the textures are shown correctly on the OpenGL viewport. As a result things like, for instance, the Object emitter doesn't work when emitting from a texture.
RF-2749 Bug - Objects imported from Alembic are not updated properly during animation when the global "Geometry Scale" parameter is different than 1. This happens for both regular objects and objects imported as a Multibody.
Alembic I/O
RF-2753 Bug - RF crashes when displaying a stitched particle mesh and loading an undefined frame
Attractor daemon
RF-2556 Bug - Attractor daemon does not work with secondary emitters of Liquid-Hybrido type.
RF-2558 Bug - The "Affect" parameter in the Attractor daemon does not work with Hybrido secondary emitters when the value is set to "Velocity".
Built-in objects
RF-2542 Bug - Cell size scale is not applied to new scene objects unless scene is reopened, or cell size scale is changed again.
C SDK
RF-2731 Bug - It is not possible to link a Group with a Hub with scripting or graphs.
RF-2732 Bug - Removing nodes from a graph or Python may crash RealFlow if there are groups in the scene.
Command Line Version
RF-2550 Bug - RealFlow crashes when launching Hybrido simulations with Initial State.
Coriolis daemon
RF-2561 Bug - Coriolis daemon does not work with secondary emitters of Liquid-Hybrido type.
RF-2562 Bug - The "Affect" parameter in the Coriolis daemon does not work with Hybrido secondary emitters when the value is set to "Velocity".
Drag force daemon
RF-2544 Bug - Drag daemon does not work with secondary emitters of Liquid-Hybrido type.
DSpline daemon
RF-2567 Bug - The "Affect" parameter in the DSpline daemon does not work with Hybrido secondary emitters when the value is set to "Velocity".
RF-2565 Bug - DSpline daemon does not work with secondary emitters of Liquid-Hybrido type.
Ellipsoid force daemon
