Flatiron 1.6 released

0 Comments        

New features in 3d-io's scene render to texture plugin for baking full scenes or selections of objects into a single UV Map include: additional unwrap options for hard surface objects, automatic self-illumination setting for immediate viewport previews and direct access to the render element settings through MAXScript. Read on for more.

Changes in Flatiron 1.60:
- added additional unwrapping mode for hard surface object which produced suboptimal results with the default organic unwrapping mode
- added option to automatically adjust self-illumination of baked materials
- added option to force the baker to use the 3ds Max default material independently from the scene source materials
- added MAXScript access for the bake element parameters
- fixed distortions when rendering multiple maps where the unwrap had a different aspect ratio than the rendered textures
- fixed sub-materials getting mixed up in Multi/Sub-Object materials when the ‘Clean Multimaterial’ option was used
- fixed issues with grouped objects only being partially included when baking selection sets
- fixed texture corruption for certain render options when the currently selected layer was hidden during rendering
- in addition this release contains various minor fixes and performance improvements
