Changelog

This page tracks the changes and improvements made to the Fondant Stylized Normals Helper addon across different versions.

v1.1.0

Laplacian Smooth Modifier Changes

  • New Feature: Added Boundary Extrapolation to address bends in shading towards the boundaries of the mesh
  • Improved Structure: Restructured the modifier to use Node Groups. Improves modularity, and makes it easier to make custom alterations
  • Optimization: Moved Apply Object Transforms to the very end of the order of operations to avoid having to perform them multiple times
  • Performance: Greatly improved performance by storing more commonly used attributes
  • New Option: Added an internal option 'Triangulate to Boundary Corners'. When triangulating boundary corner quads (3 boundary vertices), will always connect an edge to the vertex at the corner so that it has a non-boundary edge. Improves boundary extrapolation calculations. Enabled by default, but can be disabled on the PrepareGeo group.
