  • New Kill Behavior

  • New Accumulator Trigger

  • New Trajectory Edit layers in the Layout Tool (smoothing, avoidance, vector field...)

  • Component based edition of slot of the PopulationTool

  • Render Previz display mode now supports up to 16 shadowing lights (spot, omni, ambient, point or directional)

  • Render Previz display mode can now be extended via its .GLSL shader

Improvements

  • PopulationTool can now be used as an emitter

  • Added grouping options in the SnapTo Layer of the Layout Tool

  • Added an option to copy physics properties from a Character File to another in the Character Maker

  • Improved interaction between Navigation and Locomotion Behaviors

  • Improved undo / redo in the Layout Tool

  • rgbPP PPAttribute is now used as the diffuse color of the displayed Entities

  • Arnold opaque attribute can now be set per mesh in the Character Maker

  • GLMCROWD_UNIT environment variable can now be used to set the Crowd Unit within the Manager Node and the NavMesh Tool

  • Starting duration allows to spread the transform change on time or animation's translation in the SyncMotion Behavior

  • Syncing a SyncMotion Behavior on another now shares the transform information

  • Syncing a SyncMotion Behavior on another now makes one owning the animation time information
