The HueForge Anniversary sale ends tonight June 20th at 11:59pm EDT (GMT-4). Don't miss out it if you've been waiting for HueForge, FlatForge, or ColorDrop to be discounted.
There are only two sales a year so don't miss it.
Announcing the release of v0.9.4.1 - it's a Hotfix release. Only one new item in here - a new Color Match mode using the OKLab color space. It's a little different from CIELAB but likely you won't notice a ton of difference. But try it out and see what you think. You can also now go into Settings and choose between Standard Luminance and OKLab L* for your Standard mode luminance calculation. This I think is strictly an upgrade, though it will change your old projects a bit.
Otherwise it's fixing issues found with the new Rendering infrastructure and some other behaviors. Release Notes : https://open.substack.com/pub/hornandrhode/p/release-notes-for-v0941
No email going out for this one, but HueForge will alert on the new version for you with a link to your account page.
Super excited to announce the first 3rd Party Plugin for HueForge. And it's a doozy!
Additive Atom's 3MF Export Plugin! You can get it here: https://shop.thehueforge.com/pages/3mf-plugin
Why isn't this a core HueForge function? Because it's too much work to keep up with 8 different slicers (and growing) as they make customized changes to their internal 3mf formatting. Adam stepped up to handle this issue for HueForge users because I just couldn't dedicate the required time and effort. It took him MUCH longer than he had originally expected to get this ready for release.
Oh - and HueForge v0.9.4 is out too with some pretty big changes. Check the details of both on my devlog post. (As well as the existing Plugins)

Also cool in this release is what I hope is a starting point for Community Filament Libraries. Just fork this repo: https://github.com/thehueforge/hueforge-community-library-example
Follow the instructions to set it up and you can post your library in a way that users can easily add to their library and even check regularly for updates.
