We are thrilled to announce the release of BlenderKit 3.12.3.240801! This patch update brings a host of improvements and fixes that enhance your BlenderKit experience, making asset management more seamless and efficient. Below, you'll find the detailed changes in this version.
Improvements and Fixes
🛠️ Fixed Syncing of Asset Data - We resolved the issue with syncing assets data between the global directory (by default %HOME%/blenderkit_data) and the project subdirectory (by default //assets). This ensures your assets are always up-to-date and consistent across directories. #1238
🔄 Fixed Smart Asset Imports - Asset imports are now smarter again! If an asset is already placed in the scene, it will be re-used, which significantly improves data efficiency and reduces redundancy. #1223
📂 Support for Non-Default Repository Installations - We prepared background scripts to handle situations when the add-on is installed outside the user_default repository in Blender 4.2+ (e.g., from an external repository or into a custom local repository). Scripts like packing/unpacking and the thumbnail generator now operate correctly regardless of the installation location. #1263
We hope these enhancements will make your creative process smoother and more enjoyable. Thank you for being a part of the BlenderKit community. Keep creating, and happy blending!
