  • Added animation transitions with Fade

It uses linear completion for animation transitions. This will ensure that the image does not change suddenly.

  • Textures are now loaded as NoMipMaps when the file name includes _NoMip.

Material

Added a node to implement soft particles in materials.

Added a node to get the magnification of the effect.

Dynamic parameter

Added a step function

Optimization

  • Implemented multi-threaded updates. Faster update speed.

  • Geometry instances implemented. Improved speed when displaying multiple copies of the same model.

Tool

Packaging

  • Added a feature to create a package.

You can export all the files related to an effect to a single package, or import them from a package.

UI

  • Changed the behavior of the docking panel

  • Changed to frameless window (Windows)
