SItoA-6.0.0 Windows early access

[Jenus]

Since Arnold 6 doesn't bring any new features except that GPU rendering is no longer beta, I decided to do a fast release of SItoA 6.0.0 with Arnold 6.
There's also a new aov_write_vector shader but that's pretty much it. Arnold 6 is purely a GPU and performance update so everything new is under the surface.

It's not a official release since we haven't tested it on Linux yet but when it gets released, the windows build will probably be exactly the same as this, that's why I choose to not call this a beta.
Download windows only build here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/aom6z3719x6id ... addon?dl=0

And yes, this addon is significantly smaller than previous releases. That's because the huge cuda .dll isn't distributed with Arnold 6 anymore.

Merry Christmas!

GPU is there and working just fine. If you have troubles updating I suggest you read the update guide here: https://docs.arnoldrenderer.com/display ... ting+SItoA
