BlenderDMX Addon 1.8.1 Released


Blender 4.3 now supported, Updated pygdtf/pymvr, Drivers keyframe recording

Translations

Numerous translations have been added. Many thanks to all contributors.

MVR and GDTF Imports

The pygdtf and pymvr libraries have received several improvements. These, together with some other changes in BlenderDMX Addon, should further improve GDTF and MVR imports.

MVR Import can now be adjusted to utilize (or not) Focus Points as device Targets.

Blender 4.3 support

SVG imports and some other documented and undocumented changes to the Blender API had to be handled to support the 4.3 release of Blender.

Key-frame recording and playback of #bdmx drivers

There are new options to allow recording of #bdmx drivers. In order to re-play them, the drivers need to be disabled, which is not easily supported in Blender but a workaround has been found and implemented.

Remove BlenderDMX Addon from a .blend file

A new option in Setup - Extras: “Remove DMX from blend file” tries to clean up BlenderDMX Addon device specific data from a .blend file.
