Blender 2.45 Release Candidate 2 Compared to the previous RC the changes are:
FBX export now works for armature/poses
Fixes in Collada export
Shadow calculation bug fix
The most important Bug Fixes in 2.45 are:
SSS work with panorama render
Remove artifacts with negative lights using SSS
Disable SSS better for preview rendering, so it does not slow down other preview render at all.
Fix error in Transform Constraint with planar constraints when the plane was perpendicular to the viewport.
Fix a Vector blur error in "Ztransp" that produce black lines (on edges) appeared, which didn't get blurred away.
Fix a error in the Particle System that cause bad result in command line renders especially or in rendering first frame of animation.
Fix Verse crashing in 64 bits Linux.
Math node now has reflective behavior.
Importing 3DS files with lamps failed.
Bundled python modules were not included in 2.44 by accident, making some scripts fail in 2.44 that worked in 2.43 (Windows Only, when Python was not installed)
