September 25, 2026​

✨ Experimental new feature for de-duplication of materials

August 28, 2026​

✨ Initial support for importing OpenPBR materials via USD

🔨 Considerably improved circular solid hole defeaturing
🔨 Selection of nodes for optimization now supports metadata access in script
🔨 USD exports will now feature extents on mesh prims

July 31, 2026​

⚡ Fixed a rare crash bug resulting from not properly catching malformed GLTF inputs

June 29, 2026​

🔨 Added support for boundary preservation factor fixing boundaries during decimation so they do not get decimated at all


⚡ USD exports now always specify an up axis explicitly

May 27, 2026​

🔨 USD export can now export tris and quads if there are per triangle materials
🔨 Triangle to quad conversion should now be more robust against duplicated vertex data
🔨 Splitting by material more consistently ensures that there are no multiple materials on a mesh


⚡ Fixed Cylinder UV unwrap scale setting not working properly
⚡ Fixed possible incorrect scaling of charts when unwrapping multi-material meshes
⚡ Fixed atlasFactor being ignored in some cases

April 24, 2026​

April 23, 2026​

🔨 Winding order repair with a decision per lump will now remove duplicate vertices first
🔨 More robust conversion of multiple UV atlases to UDIM layouts

April 20, 2026​

✨ Experimental feature to convert multiple generated UV atlases into a UDIM layout

🔨 Removing of triangles with non-finite coordinates is now more consistent
🔨 USD import was made more robust against malformed inputs
🔨 Loading images was made more robust against malformed inputs
🔨 USD export will not produce empty UV primvar indices anymore and set vertex interpolation in these cases
🔨 Display color conversion to material values will now only take effect if there are no basecolor or diffuse values or textures in input


⚡ Fixed normal issues with solid hole defeaturing
