Info:
SpeedTree is a suite of 3D-modeling tools that combines the efficiency of procedural modeling with the flexibility of hand modeling. Since its launch in 2001, SpeedTree has been used in hundreds of AAA and indie games and more than a hundred movies and television episodes. The software has earned a Scientific and Technical Academy Award and an Engineering Emmy, both in 2015.
New Features
Mesh-Based Smooth Normals
Leaf and frond meshes have new lighting properties allowing them to compute smooth normals based on the mesh after procedural deformation has been applied (this was only approximated in previous versions).
Improved Quadification
Quad indices for triangle only meshes are computed with a new, faster algorithm that creates more evenly distributed quads. This is particularly noticeable on high poly meshes.
Bug Fixes
File Dialog Crash
The crash associated with previously available drives no longer being accessible has been fixed.
Lumberyard Face Winding
The face winding for Lumberyard exports has been modified to work with both the vegetation shaders (this always worked) and non two-sided shaders.
Unwrapping Fixes
A bug where shell generators could be mapped incorrectly during unwrapped exports has been corrected. Small items that were scaled up could cause overlapping in the atlas ? this issue has also been corrected. In addition, an improvement has been made in the algorithm to prevent the unwanted expansion of tiny details.
Growth Wizard Crash
Generators with failed welds could cause the ?Growth Wizard? to crash when it was exectured. This bug has been corrected.
Lightmap Density Incorrect on Load
Lightmap density visualization will now be correct immediately on load. Previous versions required an additional compute.
Incorrect Polygon Count Display
Polygons removed during collision could cause an error in polygon statistics reporting. This but has been corrected.
Node Position Offets
These edits where moving the nodes appropriately but their new position was not being accounted for correctly in all computations. Bones, pruning, and wind weights now account for the new position.
Warning: Be sure to scan all the downloaded files with your Antivirus and if there is an executable or installer file, make sure to have your antivirus active and open in the background while installing or running the app. Some of the materials posted here are downloaded from CGPeers, So they could potentially have something injected in them.
We always ask bloggers to scan all the files before publishing the posts, but sometimes it's hard to detect all these things, so if you found anything suspicious (Not false positive, Generic, Patcher, Riskware and Heuristic results, most patches could get false flags like that by some Antivirus companies.) be sure to post comments with the file name and a VirusTotal report result link or the file MD5 Hash (higher than 30% overall positive result). Thank you.
