MadMapper 5.2 BETA Release notes
ADDITIONS
-Added YUV (YCrCb) Color-Profile control in video-inputs / NDI / FFmpeg (autodetected if possible, user setting if not) for better color accuracy
-DMX Fixtures CSV import: handle fixture name & group hierarchy
-Added support for Kinect ONE (v2) on Windows, macOS Intel & macOS Silicon (M1) & improved Kinect Masker generator
-Added support for Intel RealSense on Windows (works on macOS versions up to Monterey)
-Added support for Xbox controllers (wired and bluetooth on Windows, bluetooth only on macOS)
-Added "CUE ALL", "Copy Settings“, "Paste Settings" & "Reset to default values” when right clicking on parameter groups (for Surface FX, Materials etc.)
-Added Copy/Paste Output Geometry / Input Geometry / FX Settings / Laser Settings on surface context menu
-New Text Generator (supports all installed fonts, multiline, text alignment...)
-New Generator: Countdown
-MadLaser: added Laser 3D surfaces
-MadLaser: added PONK support (in & out). PONK stands for "Pathes Over NetworK", it's an open source protocol to transmit geometry over network (mostly designed for laser)
-MadLaser: added Laser Generators - Polyline Mixer, Countdown & Text Generators
-MadProjectorControl: Added projector lamps lifetime info
IMPROVEMENTS
-Quad & Laser Quad: When adding / removing mesh warping points or generating a mesh grid in bezier mode, preserve transformation as much as possible
-Improved media sampling on surfaces (black outside media rectangle while preserving pixel perfect mapping)
-Revamped Preferences dialog with new Startup section
Improved UI-state restoration, now saved in project as well
FIXES
-Fixed MIDI port naming when using multiple devices (annoying with MIDI Out module & feedback device assignment)
-Fixed game-controllers Y axis being upside-down
-Fixed a crash when exporting to MiniMad on macOS 10.13
-Fixed AVFoundation video-inputs not functioning when reconnected
A MadMapper 5 license is required to use this Beta version
(Don't forget that this is a BETA version, so use at your own risk if you're in production)
We hope you'll love it!
Enjoy!
