tyFlow v2.007 is up!
https://pro.tyflow.com
Additions:
* added Terrain Download operator for downloading terrain height and color data from public DEM/satellite APIs
* added menu to copy/paste animation clip info between tyActor helpers
* added "use local offset" option to Spline Paths operator, when in PhysX bindings mode
* added options in Birth Inferno operator to switch cooling/dissipation timing from per second to per frame
* added surface area filter to Inferno Emitter operator
* added new grid file extraction mode (now default) to Birth VDB operator, for merging multiple grids of the same type, scalar grid triplets into single vector grids, etc
* throughout all VDB operators, "density" and "velocity" grid labels have been changed to "scalar" and "vector"
* added thickness region and mesh push parameters to Inferno Collider operator
* added "outward from meshes" option to tyPush modifier in simple spline push mode
* added matching face re-order mode to tyVertexOrder modifier
Fixes:
* fixed an issue with the way noise of the Inferno Vorticity/Temperature/Density operators was computed
* fixed an issue where adding an Inferno Vorticity operator to a sim would apply vorticity twice (both before and after conservation)
* fixed a crash that could occur in a tyBoolean or tyMultifracture modifier, when an input operand had more map channels than the source object
* fixed an adaptive grid issue which could cause planar Inferno simulations to generate large, sparse-cube-aligned artifacts on planar surfaces
* Alembic export will now zero-scale particles in-place before/after their lifespan, rather than to the scene origin
* improved distribution of display vectors in VDB Display operator
* fixed an issue where animating the thickness of an Inferno Emitter operator, with a Value operator, wouldn't update the sim over time
* fixed an issue where animated Inferno bounds wouldn't clear emission caches on static objects, leading to invalid emissions
* fixed an issue where the tyPush modifier, in spline push mode, wouldn't properly use knot selections on shapes with more than one sub spline
* improved the way the tyPush modifier, in spline push mode, pushes spline tangents relative to their knots
* fixed an issue where Inferno source operators (collision, emitter, etc), were not necessarily evaluated in order
* fixed an issue where Inferno flipbook export wouldn't work properly when progressive refinement enabled in a view mode that doesn't support it (ex: wireframe)
* fixed an issue where having multiple texmap-based Value operators in a flow could cause a crash during threaded initialization
