Gator Material Studio 1.2.2 Patch Notes

Gator Material Studio 1.2.2

This update focuses on Painter reliability and workflow fixes, along with a Designer preview correction.

Painter

• Reworked Material Brush painting so enabled channels update live during the stroke.
• Material Brush now supports individual values for Base Color, Roughness, Metallic, Normal, Height, AO, Emission, and Opacity.
• Improved Material Brush undo behavior so a multi-channel stroke is treated as one action.
• Fixed Clone source handling across multiple UDIM tiles.
• Fixed automatic UDIM switching during 3D painting causing unnecessary structural document updates.
• Fixed the first tablet-pressure dab beginning at full pressure.
• Fixed Brush Presets retaining a previous Stamp or Stencil when the new asset could not be resolved.
• Added a No Stamp option for explicitly clearing the active Stamp.
• Fixed library Stamps, Textures, Alphas, and Stencils not fully loading after opening a project until Refresh was pressed.
• Quick Mask enable and disable state now correctly marks the project as modified.
• Layers inside groups are now visually indented in the Layer Stack and return to normal when ungrouped.
• Improved Smart Material dependency validation so missing resources no longer silently produce non-portable Smart Materials.
• Added safer atomic saving for Painter materials, Smart Materials, export presets, and Brush Preset data.

Designer

• Fixed built-in Cube preview UV mapping so procedural materials use the full 0 to 1 UV range on each face.
• Designer Cube previews now more closely match the 2D procedural output, including patterns such as Brick Generator.

Additional

• General Painter stability and workflow cleanup.
