Updates:

• We have added a new Noise (Gaussian) node which generates smooth and random Gaussian noise that are tileable and customizable. The
• We have added a new Normal Generation node. Four new sliders have been added which gives precise control when generating normal maps. 
  - The previous Normal Generation node is still available as Normal Generation (Legacy) and will be deprecated in the future. We will give at least a month's notice before we do this. 
  - We have not updated the normal generation function within Material Generation. We recommend that users create their PBR maps using the individual generation nodes for the highest quality results.

• 3D Viewer can now load materials without locking the node graph. This is shown by a progress bar in the bottom right hand corner and is most noticeable with 8K textures.
• Improved error handling in various nodes.

Resolved Issues:

• Fixed issues around tiling and zoom level when switching between nodes.
• Fixed issues related to copy-pasting nodes, saving projects.
• Fixed minor bugs around UX/UI issues and general performance bugs.

Known Issues:

• Loading projects from previous versions can sometimes take longer to load, and open with disconnected wires. Reconnecting the wires and saving in the current version should fix this issue.
• The following nodes cannot be canceled, so the user has to wait until they are executed: JPEG Artifact Removal, Up-res, Blur, and Albedo Generation (although this node usually executes quickly).

Officially Supported Nvidia Drivers:

• All versions from 417.35
