PopcornFX Plug-in for iClone v1.01 (1.01.1519.1) released on April 11th, 2018

PopcornFX Plug-in Enhancements 

1. (*.pkfx) can be dragged and dropped via the viewport.  There is no need to use Plugins > PopcornFX > Import PKFX.



2. The universal Adjust Color panel is now usable with PopcornFX texture channels.

3. Loading (*.pkfx) files for Lit Particle Material types will generate PBR metallic and roughness textures which can then be modified with Adjust Color tools.

Case in point:

PopcornFX Super Tools Bug Fixes 

To have these enhanced features take effect, you'll need to load the new Super Tools and then apply your attributes and settings again.
  • Texture & Distortion Emitter
    • The orientation of the Gizmo was not taken into consideration when the align mode was set to Horizontal.
[Before]                                                                                        [After]
     
  • Mesh Emitter
    • The resulting rotation was incorrect when Forward to Velocity was disabled.
    • The emitted mesh was erroneously rotated when Spin Speed along Velocity was set to 0.
    • Scale Y and Scale Z attributes were mistakenly swapped.
    • The behavior of Initial Rotate (X/Y/Z) and Free Rotation Speed (X/Y/Z) was improved by mimicking those of the conventional 3D tools.
  • Ribbon Emitter
    • There was incorrect behavior with the Radius Increment Fade Out attribute.
    • There was no effect from the green channel of Texture for Emission, which is used to determine the size of the Ribbon.  
    • Velocity (X/Y/Z) gave incorrect results.
    • There was no effect from the Size Randomness attribute.
[Before]                                                                                        [After]
     
    • Distortion Intensity for Ribbon was ineffectual and therefore removed from the new Ribbon Emitter tool.
    • Added Z-axis to the Ribbon Twist Direction attribute.
