In this update, we've focused on enhancing performance and fixing critical issues.

New Features​

Improvements​

  • Improved performance(up to 10x) by more aggressively reusing textures in the Stamp Brush.

  • Enhanced the UI to display the asset name in the header/title of the map item in the brush component.
  • Added notification when forcing an update if updates are disabled.
  • Added an option in Noise to disable location-based noise seed, preventing noise changes when moving the brush.
