MicroSplat 3.9.7

- Streams now tintable

- Fix to procedural texturing sample stripping on windows

- Fix to trax tessellation displacement when using only snow tracks

- Documentation buttons readded to every module

MicroSplat 3.9.0

- Massive refactoring of internal use of texture samplers. A total of 20 samplers were removed from the system, and I don't think it's possible to exceed the hardware sampler limit (16) anymore. Unfortunately this required bumping the major version, since it affects almost every module.

- (internal cleanup) Removed surface shader legacy cruft, mostly using modern declarations and sampling conventions now.

- Fixed a few places where textures were being wrapped instead of clamped, causing potential seems between terrains

- Texture Selection Displays now shows overriden layer name when layer is overridden in Texture Array Config

MicroSplat 3.8.14

- Added "TerrainCompatible" tag to shaders so Unity 2021 doesn't put warnings in the terrain editor

- When using the slope filter in terrain blending, the normal from the terrain is only taken into account on the blend area, not on the tops of objects which are just recieving terrain texturing

- Flip Mesh Workflow normals to match unity standard orientation

- Force array to have 1 texture in it if no textures are provided on conversion

- Trax now filters downward facing surfaces from the effect

- Cleanup to some trax code in HDRP

- HDRP GI emission flag added

- Fix to per texture rotation of UVs in tessellation stages

MicroSplat 3.8.13

- Fix to distant resampled triplanar normals

- Snow amount would get modified by the angle filter, causing the snow to fully appear much too early (around 0.2 in the demo scene). This now always spans the full range from 0-1.

- Better integration of snow with tessellation. Displacement starts a bit later to give time for snow to visually appear before build up. Displacement now fills in the low areas first, then eventually flattens the terrain when enough snow has built up.

- Fix to compressor to make sure compression is applied in build on newer unity versions

- Remove per-pixel normal setting on digger shaders

MicroSplat 3.8.12

- Fix to per-texture controls for second/third noise normal in anti-tiling module

- Fix to triplanar when using blend surface normals and tessellation

- Fix to microsplat compressor file format not being linear

MicroSplat 3.6.6

- Fix to using lightmap UVs in Mesh Module

- Fix to tessellation offset

MicroSplat 3.8.4

- Significant optimization to vertex size and interpolator usage for terrain shaders, which helps vertex throughput on low end devices and when using tessellation. Please update tessellation, SRP adapters, and low poly modules if you are using them.

MicroSplat 3.8.0

PLEASE DELETE THE CURRENT VERSION OF MICROSPLAT BEFORE INSTALLING

- MicroSplat now delivered as a Package instead of as an asset. This means that it can be found in your Packages folder.

- Examples are no longer imported as part of the module. Instead, you can install them by selecting the module in the Package Manager and unpacking the sample you want to try.

- MicroSplat now uses assembly definition files. If your code uses assembly definitions, you will have to create appropriate references to MicroSplat. Note that all modules use assembly references to inject themselves into the main MicroSplat assembly definitions, so you do not have to account for module usage.

- Note that due to the new assembly definition files, some 3rd party assets will need to be updated to work with MicroSplat again. If you are using lots of third party integrations, you may want to wait to update until they have been updated as well.

- The minimum Unity version for new MicroSplat development is now 2019.4, previous versions are still available for 2017+.

- The Ultimate Bundle can now be downloaded as a single download instead of as separate modules!

MicroSplat 3.795

- Fix to triplanar when downloading triplanar and core separately instead of part of the terrain collection

- Fix to POM when certain per-texture properties are used

MicroSplat 3.75

- Parallax Occlusion Mapping option added to tessellation module

- Fix to Parallax Mapping

MicroSplat 3.74

- Changes for 2020LTS render adapters

MicroSplat 3.733

- Fixes to distance calculations in HDRP

- Fix to _Control0 sampler stripping issue on windows

MicroSplat 3.731

- Fix to tessellation with terrains not at 0 in standard pipeline

MicroSplat 3.73

- Fix to terrain blending under HDRP

- Fix to wind under URP

- Fix to tessellation and procedural texturing

MicroSplat 3.72

- Fix to tessellation and draw instanced in HDRP, please update HDRP, tessellation, and core modules.

MicroSplat 3.7

The entire system has been rewritten to run off the Better Shaders framework. This is a pretty massive change that fixes many slight differences and bugs between the various render pipelines, making it much easier to fix issues across all the pipelines at once.

Note that Unity's Package Manager is completely broken in most versions of Unity, will show that it has the latest version, but instead install older versions. To fix this, please delete the asset store cache before downloading any assets, otherwise you will most likely not get the latest version.

MicroSplat 3.64

- Fix to grainy textures when using triplanar with per texture UV scale

- Tessellation Offset is now applied before trax and other modifiers, making it blend much better.

- Fix to editor throwing a null ref when first turning autonormal on.

MicroSplat 3.61

- NEW: Object Shader now supports Cutout shaders as well as opaque ones

- FIX: Reduced texcoord usage in HDRP when using non-tessellated digger/vertex workflow shaders.

- FIX: Per-pixel normal texture now set as linear when created

- FIX: compile error on windows with global normal

- FIX: viewDir calculations in surface shaders (fixes parallax)

- FIX: Compile error with object shader running under UPR/HDRP

- Small fix to tessellation in HDRP when terrains are not at 0
