IMPROVED: Stability and Blender 5.2+ compatibility — internal update that makes the addon more stable and ensures full compatibility with Blender 5.2 and later versions. No new features or workflow changes.
NEW Version 2.5.1
NEW: Four new Mode Generation algorithms:
NI: DCT, NI: DST, and NI: FFT: Fast spectral solvers with different behaviors at the edges (perfect for general images or isolated subjects). Note that these methods may sometimes flatten the highest peaks of the resulting height map.
Fuzzy: An advanced, noise-robust algorithm that uses fuzzy logic to handle imperfections in the normal map, resulting in very clean and smooth bas reliefs. Includes customizable parameters (Lambda, Adaptive, F-Transform).
IMPROVED: SKO Curvature Map — Replaced the previous curvature generation method with a new algorithm that produces cleaner, more precise surface detail with significantly less noise. The old method tended to introduce excessive noise, especially at lower resolutions. The new approach captures edges and surface variations more faithfully, resulting in better detail for your bas reliefs.
IMPROVED: SKI Cavity Map — Replaced the previous inverted sketch method with a dedicated cavity map algorithm that extracts surface concavity directly from the normal map. This produces smoother and more accurate fine detail compared to the old approach, which was prone to noise artifacts.
NEW: Curvature (SKO) setting in Layer Settings — A new blur radius selector that lets you control how much the SKO curvature edges are smoothed. Choose between Smallest and Largest; we recommend values between Smallest and Medium for best results.
NEW: Cavity Map (SKI) settings in Layer Settings — New Radius and Blur controls for fine-tuning the cavity map generation. Radius controls sampling distance; Blur applies subtle smoothing to the output.
NEW: Combined SKI export — Added Combined SKI maps at 100%, 75%, 50%, and 25% intensity to the Export Maps dialog, bringing the total number of exportable maps to 17.
Important: As with every part of Bildeform's workflow, the quality of the curvature and cavity maps depends directly on your input. Higher resolution images (2K+), using the best MoGe-2 model (Large), and the maximum Detail Level produce the best results.
