Blendit v1.7.1

Full dynamic one-click solution for material blending of objects.

Main features:

• Easily create material blend of selected objects with active
• Non-destructive operations: create, apply, remove material blends
• Option of executing the operations for all blends of source object
• Real-time dynamic blends works in viewport, Eevee and Cycles
• Option automatic create material from blended objects
• Option to Blend Normals of objects
• Easily tweak individual blend of object
• Easy tweaking of all blends of source object
• Blend styles: Height maps blending, Noise and Custom texture masking
• Preserve texture scale from source object with mapping options:

1. World space: Geometry node - Position output
2. Object space: Texture Coordinate node - Object output
3. UV v1: Texture Coordinate node - UV output + Blendit Transfer UV
4. UV v2: UV Map node + Blendit Transfer UV

Limitations:

• Only one blend per object supported
• Two source objects can't be blended together
• The add-on only works with the first material slot
• You shouldn't rename Blend materials for proper functionality
• You shouldn't remove original materials for proper functionality
• You shouldn't rename Blendit modifiers for proper functionality
• The quality of the blend depends on mesh density and topology
• Only an UV map with Active Render can be transferred
• Multi-user material doesn't support different blend source objects
• Auto Smooth turns on when Blend Normals is used
• You must use UV mapping and Transfer UV to blend Normal maps
• Used simple inaccurate blending of normal maps
• Automatic connected Displacement and Volume outputs aren't supported
• Limited support for input nodes depending on the source object
• Blender 2.90.x bug, crash when switching to UV Edit of source object
• Blender 2.90.x bug, crash when switching to Edit Mode of source object
• Mappings inside node groups are not affected
• Using AutoSmooth with Blend Normals in Cycles may cause terminator artifacts
• Smooth linear blending gradients of solid colors are difficult to set
• The use of subsurface scattering in the source material may show seam for Cycles
