make sure you upgrade your runtime / plugins as well before switching to this version.

! IMPORTANT ! After upgrading a project to 2.13.0, make sure you clear your shader-cache by doing 'Edit > Clear shader cache' !

Note: UE4 & UE5 plugin archives are provided as 7z archives for better compression. They can be extracted using 7zip.

Changelog 2.13.0

Builds (Jul 21st 2022)


GPU simulation

  • D3D12 & PS5 GPU simulation overhaul: Optimization & stabilization
  • Fixed #11323: GPU sim (D3D12): Effects using samplers suffer from a significant CPU overhead due to sampler properties being reuploaded every frame.
  • Fixed #11305: GPU sim: invalid CPU particle count when particles die in less than 4 frames
  • Fixed #11190: GPU sim: Prewarm is messed-up
  • Fixed #11188: GPU sim: discretize function is wrong, returns discretize(x-1)
  • Fixed #11187: GPU sim D3D12 & PS5: Shape sampling is broken on some shapes (Spheres & Complex-ellipsoids)
  • Fixed #11186: GPU sim D3D12 & PS5: disassemblePCoords functions & nodes are broken for Spheres, Cylinders, and Capsules
  • Fixed #11179: GPU sim: Incorrect time scales handling
  • Fixed #11173: GPU sim: effect.scale not supported
  • Fixed #11174: GPU sim: effect.axis* not supported

Editor

  • Fixed #11202: Saving an asset takes several seconds

Effect editor

  • #5434: Add particle memory usage viewer (CPU & GPU)
  • #10480: Mesh backdrop: Only list meshes with geometry and meshes with animation when browsing for MeshPath and AnimPath

  • #10481: AnimTrack backdrop: Only list meshes with animation tracks when picking an anim track
  • #11171: Remove ultra-niche instrumentation driver toggle button from viewport toolbar: No reason to have it here as nobody outside the PopcornFX devteam is realistically using this undocumented feature.
  • Fixed #4420: Timeline track descriptions are not localized

Nodal editor

Rendering
