What's Changed?

The trunk node sockets now have descriptions, similar to branch nodes

• The node panel is a bit messy with all the sockets rendering below the groups but that'll be a fix for another time

Release V5.1.0

Pivot Painter 2.0

What's changed

Added support for Pivot Painter 2.0

This is probably a naive implementation but it's working in UE5. I attempted to get it working for Unity but I want to push out some QoL updates before I continue (i.e. testing)

• For each vertex, we are now baking in the following data:
  • stem_id - Which branch this vertex belongs to
  • hierarchy_depth - How deep in the tree (0=trunk, 1=branch, etc.)
  • pivot_position - 3D point where this branch connects to parent
  • branch_extent - Length/size of this branch
• These are visible in the spreadsheet view in Blender
• New node created to handle export of UV coordinates
• Documentation on how to use this in UE5

Small Cody Tidy-ups

• Working on Pivot Painter, I realised that I was starting to create a mess that would be hard to test. I've separated out some logic to their own modules.

Release V5.0.3

What's changed

Leaf Generation

The leaf generation wasn't working as it was supposed to. It was generating a twig at (0,0,0). It was also hard to understand what was happening in the blend file (as someone who works with code).

This attempts to resolve the leaf generation by:

• Moving the node generation from the blend file to python (utilising the handy tool https://extensions.blender.org/add-ons/node-to-python/)
• Removing the fancy twig node and instead creating a base square leaf mesh to use.
  • Handles better on lower spec machines
