QuickTiles 1.4.0.0 (11.08.2025)

Major improvements

  • A new version of the Crop – Center+ algorithm has been added, allowing you to add tile lengths. To do this, the plugin mixes multiple tiles from the same ID.
  • A new, more reliable algorithm for working with auxiliary files. Increased reliability in case of scene crashes and material breakdowns
  • Possibility of direct editing of seams on a mask through HSV in a slicer
  • The ability to disable the mask affect in the slicer for each channel
  • Updated the algorithm for generating the shape of seams. It has become faster and smoother, and is now superimposed on the replaced seam texture.
  • Added an algorithm for auto-downloading missing textures from the server when starting a scene and updating materials
  • Added an algorithm for automatic re-downloading in case of damage to library texture files
  • Added a multiformat when saving files. By default, all channels are saved in JPG 8 bits, and normals and displacement in PNG 16 bits.
  • The Outline function in the slicer can now stretch selected tiles separately in width or height.
  • Added the ability to work efficiently with Real World map size. The function works in Vray and Corona. The texture size is automatically transferred to the appropriate fields during the Update.
  • When working with Real World map size, the texture is displayed in the viewport at the correct scale.
  • Added the possibility of random series shifting in linear patterns
  • The block of work with the tilt of the tiles has been changed. Now you can activate randomization for each side and turn separately.
  • Added a new Color Picker, developed by our programmer in-house. You can also activate it for the entire 3d max environment.
  • Added the ability to dim the brightness of the created edge in the shape generator.
  • It is possible to add a background image to the Editor's Pattern substrate.
  • Added a version for 3d max 2026
  • Added automatic creation of firewall rules during installation

Minor improvements

  • Two new color templates have been added to search in the preset library pink and beige
  • Added AO generation in the seam, when setting the shape
  • Added a randomization seed shift for different channels. For example: if the current tile in the diffuse channel has darkened when randomization is set, it may brighten or remain the same on other channels. Previously, the seed and the degree of randomization coincided.
  • The update status bar has been added to the Update window. The last operation and the time it took are now displayed
  • In the slicer, the deactivated black tiles now also become more transparent
  • Added automatic channel recognition when working with the seam substrate
  • Added a light grid on top of the tiles in the pattern editor. It has become more convenient to see the size of the tiles being created
  • The maximum field size for creating a linear pattern is now 300x300 cells (previously it was 100x100)
  • The subscription activation button is now always available
  • Improved the algorithm for randomizing the width of tiles in linear patterns
  • Now, when enlarging the tiles in the container, the specified edge shape does not go beyond the edges, but remains anchored to the container
  • The channel activation algorithm by color has been changed. Previously, the color should have been different from black, now it's enough to enter and exit the color picker, and the channel is activated
  • Added automatic window size reduction for low-resolution monitors

Bug fix

  • Fixed the seam distortion algorithm
  • When working with the plain texture as the source, the scale did not increase by more than 100%
  • When working with the plain texture, the scale changed depending on the resolution and size of the patch
  • Improved the algorithm for loading textures from the server. Now, if the file breaks, the texture is re-uploaded automatically
  • Shortcuts have been restored (some were not working)
  • The storage time of temp files was 30 times longer than it was set in the menu. Now it matches the specified one
  • There were holes when working with some large patterns
  • Fixed crash when resaving one preset on another
  • Fixed distorted display of the normal map in the slicer
  • In the slicer, when switching from mode 1 to 3, the tiles were incorrectly sliced
  • The display of names and information in the lister has been fixed on 4K monitors
  • Fixed incorrect operation of some tools in the slicer when using grid border reduction (Cropping)
  • Other minor fixes
