Smart Weathering 3.0.0 - Presentation

We are very happy to announce that we have launched a new version of our SW add-on with lots of enhancements and new features
This new version comes after doing a lot of iterations not only in the shader and the add-on parts but, also on something we always wanted to add since its launch in Blender, Geometry nodes!
This trailer shows just a few parts of all the improvements we made. We would need a movie! Well, maybe not that much, but check out the release notes page.
It is packed with many new things, so we prepared a release note page where you can check all the information regarding this big release and what it brings out to you.

It's practically overwhelming how many new features there are!

[@Tinquify]

Thank you very much for your kind comment and for always being very supportive! 🙌💪
We wanted to improve it the best we could, and it is great to know that it's perceived that way 😄

Thanks for this update! Brought so many more effects to the table and I'm glad I don't have to deal with long node group anymore. For anyone upgrading make sure you're uninstalling the old addon lol.

[@Tinquify]

Thank you, and it is great to know you appreciate the update! And yes, the node was and still is very long, but now it is easier to navigate! Please follow the install steps in our documentation, check our other reply in your other comment.

WOW ! this looks incredible! Are there any instructional videos on how to get the most out of the addon?

[@Tinquify]

Thank you very much for the comment! We have a very extensive notion documentation that is loaded with info on how everything works, and other things such as tips, instructions, and so on.
The links are in the Smart Weathering documentation portal, in the product "documentation" section on Blender Market, and in this video description.
Here is the link to it just in case
tinquify.notion.site/Smart-Weathering-v-3-0-0-3b8607ac0e1644a7be7693d9671d8c24
We are adding info to that documentation, and we are planning to do some instructional videos over time. So stay tuned!
We have some workflow tutorials from previous versions that are still relevant. We will be updating them with this new version and new tips.
You will find them in our TH-cam "SW Tutorials" playlist:

And, here is a good example of a useful tutorial from the previous version

There's no bug report feedback or discord button on the store pages so I'm reporting it here. Not sure if it's just my end but when I undo an adjustment on the Dirt - Random - Hard Main, blender goes unresponsive.

[@Tinquify]

Thanks for the feedback, we would need more info about it to better understand it. Please send us an email to [e-mail] to better help you (describing OS, Blender version, PC specs, and if possible sending a screen video that shows the problem).
You can also use the form where you can report us feedback (bugs, suggestions, ideas, show us your artwork). This form will ask for the same info.
The links are in the Smart Weathering documentation portal, in the product "documentation" section on Blender Market, and in this video description.
We leave them here as well for your convenience:
