If your setup uses nodes.
This node makes it effortless to apply effects like weathering, dirt, or paint peeling specifically to the edges of objects, enhancing realism without complex UV mapping.
The memory footprint of displacement mapping has been optimized. Scenes that previously required 64GB of RAM now run comfortably on 48GB, thanks to better tile caching in Hotfix 2.
: Architects can easily build intricate floors, bathrooms, and brickwork procedurally. Instead of sourcing heavy, fixed textures, you can define custom tile patterns, control corner rounding, adjust gap blur, and randomize color inputs directly via a single map node.
