  • Strand renderer
  • Strand force, gravity, modifiers, collision.
  • Strand can also be cast directly to path, allowing for spawning hair on hair, line drawing, etc.

• New mesh data type.

  • Mesh from path node
  • Mesh transform node

• Color depth settings is now available in some nodes.

• [Path] Add transform tool.

• [Path] Add anchor array output.

• [Path] Add fix length mode.

• [Line] Add texture property.

• [Group input] Add path, particle, rigid body, fluid domain, struct, strand, and mesh data type.

• [Array processor] Array processing type moved to node setting.

• [Shape separator] Maximum shape moved to node setting.

• [Polygon shape] Add mesh and path output.
