Version 6.0 - Modulo Kinetic user manual

Drivers

We recommend to use these AMD drivers (Download the correct versions):

You need to update the Deltacast drivers to version 6.26.1 (Deltacast Update Procedure).

New Book Designer panel dedicated to creating projection studies with option to export to PDF.
Integrated a VNC Viewer directly in Kinetic Designer, accessible from the V-Nodes top menu
Added an EDID Generator to the GPU page of the V-Node’s Remote Settings window.
Added a Segment Mode to media playback in the timeline to read segments until the end before passing on to the next (Useful when playing media that react to user interactions)
Added PVW and PGM buttons to the Timeline List panels to respectively toggle visibility of the timeline in the Designer and the V-Node(s).

Improved functionalities of the 3D Viewer panel (camera orbit, move/rotate/scale gizmos, new grid, etc.)
Added two different render modes to the 3D Viewer panel: Study Mode and Render Mode
Improved rendering of PBR materials and changed Standard material into Unlit material.
Added support of GLTF file format.
- GLTF is now the recommended import/export format
- Added an option to optimize GLTF files on import: compacts the hierarchy of imported model as much as possible with a setting to reduce polygon count
Added a VP information button displaying distance information of a selected projector in the 3D Viewer
Added a 3D Physics Engine which can be controlled via tools in the compute graph
Added the possibility to play media directly on the color texture map of a material
Reparenting of nodes has changed: nodes now conserve their absolute position when being moved to other nodes in the 3D Hierarchy
Added import of point lists from C4D or Blender for the 3D Mapping of outputs (Advanced tab)
Added a night sky environment map and a parameter to modify env. map display opacity independent from the env. map lighting intensity

Projector & Cameras Yaw/Pitch values can me moved with the keyboard arrow keys
Added a first-person view orbit mode
Added infinite mouse scroll on the 3D Viewer (cursor teleports to the other side when reaching the panel’s edge on pan and orbit)
Added support of HDR and Tone Mapping (AgX algorithm)
Added display of multiple projector boxes when using the projector’s stack parameter
Added display of last measure when using the measure tool
Improved display of softedges in 3D view
Cameras and Projectors now automatically increment a number in their name when created

Javascript node now supports using external files and an external editor
Javascript node now has a trigger mode to execute the script only once when triggered.
Designer functions have been added (80 + javascript functions to control different aspects of Kinetic Designer)
Blob Tracker node now has an automatic upscale feature and min/max values on its parameters for improved stability

QR Code Image Extractor: Create template files with QR Codes that can then be extracted by this node
Trigger Area Scene 3D: Use a camera from your 3D scene to to 3D Picking and add interactivity to the 3D elements displayed.
Instantiate 3D: Clone an instance of a model in a 3D scene with materials, animation and skeleton
3D Physics: Control the aspects of a 3D Physics Engine applied to a 3D Scene
String nodes: A collection of nodes to perform various operations on strings in the graph
Update media: Dynamically update a media in the media list

Removed support of Azure Kinect (obsolete)
Added possibility to automatically address a range of IP addresses when creating multiple devices at once

Added possibility to launch a folder of tasks and launching a random task within a folder of task
Added possibility to link setColor subtasks to Color variables for 3D materials

When exporting a 3D scene in a 3D file format, projector boxes will now properly be integrated
Measures / Annotations are now properly added even when clicking outside the mesh
Annotations now display correctly in Orthographic camera mode
