Release Notes

0.29.0

  • Add Reference Blend feature to Carbon Cloth and Carbon Tissue.
  • Add Reference Blend example.

0.28.0

  • Add Carbon Rigid Transform node.
  • Add new Carbon Simulation Geometry icon.
  • Add new Carbon Rigid Body Macro icon.

0.27.1

  • Fix bug in Carbon Collider collision analysis output point group “analysis”. This group would disappear if the number of points contained in it became too big compared to the total number of points in the Collider.

0.27.0

  • Improve Carbon Simulation Geometry node to also work when not directly connected to a Carbon Simulation node.
  • Fix bug in Carbon Cloth where Animated Reducer and Animated Forces tickboxes were not read correctly from Carbon Cloth Material node.

0.26.1

  • Add Stasis to Carbon Cloth, Tissue, Morph, Rigid, Rigid Body Macro, Plumage, and N-Lattice.
  • Add Carbon Mesh Layout utility node.
  • Add Carbon Mesh Name Display utility node.
  • Add Carbon Mesh Weights utility node.
  • Add “Stasis: Cloth Knot” example.
  • Add “Stasis: Rigid Balls” example.
  • Add “Simulation Space and Goal Posing” example.
  • Add “Tissue Goal Posing” example.
  • Add “Tissue Biceps Rigging” example.
  • Add “Tissue Biceps Rigging Simplified” example.
  • Add “Tissue Facial Animation” example.
  • Fix issue in Goal Posing when turning kinematic points dynamic or constrained.
  • Fix broken Carbon Tissue Goal Posing.
  • Fix bug in Carbon Tissue Paint Map Physics Draw.

0.25.1

  • Fig bug in Carbon Garment Processor Deformer network which would trigger an error if any Cloth Start Meshes in the simulation did not have a primitive attribute called “name”.

0.25.0

  • Add Carbon Tissue and Tissue tutorial.
  • Add Carbon Volume Deformer node and examples.
  • Add Tetrahedralization User Guide.
  • Add Tissue Versus Pressurized Cloth User Guide.
  • Add Carbon Attribute Copy node.
  • Add support for Carbon Plumage and Carbon N-Lattice to Carbon Filter.
  • Add missing Carbon Plumage and Carbon N-Lattice to Carbon Flow’s Affected Nodes’ dropdowns.
  • Fix bug in Carbon Simulation Geometry when chaining multiple Carbon Simulation Geometry nodes.
  • Fix bug in Carbon Simulation Geometry when object nodes in the Carbon Simulation are bypassed.
  • Extend Carbon Flow node.
  • Improve speed of internal group indices processing. Primitive and Point groups are now processed much faster, speeding up simulation resets and frame updates for nodes with animated groups.
  • Fix issues with incorrect Constraint Count information on Carbon Binding, Carbon Stitching, and Carbon Welding.
  • Fix bug in Carbon Binding construction, which could cause Carbon Cloth to “disappear” after the first simulated frame in very rare cases.
  • Fix broken “Animated Goal Pose” tickbox on Carbon Cloth Material.
  • Improve Carbon Cloth Material loading messages.
  • Improve Carbon Shape and Carbon Body documentation.

0.21.0

  • Add Carbon Plumage and Plumage tutorials.
  • Add Carbon N-Lattice and N-Lattice tutorial.
  • Add Carbon Cloth Goal Pose tutorials.
  • Improve Panic Timer: Now allowing simulation cache replay up to when the panic time triggered.
  • Improve Carbon Simulation Geometry: Reordering / Adding / Removing objects from the Simulation no longer invalidates / breaks the Output parameters.
  • Change Carbon Rigid’s and Rigid Body Macro’s Mass parameter’s default value to 0.001, i.e. 1 gram.
  • Change default value of “Create Output Geometry” on Carbon Body to ticked.

Carbon Cloth:

  • Fix broken “Animated Goal Pose” tickbox on Carbon Cloth.

  • Change Thickness default value from 0.01 to 0.001.
  • Change Bend Limit Base default value from 90 to 180.

Carbon Garment Processor:

  • Add “Self Stitching” tickbox and improve naming of self-stitching Carbon Stitching nodes created by the Carbon Garment Processor.
  • Change Stitching Radius default value from 0.1 to 0.2.
  • Support Mesh Deformers workflow without Details.
