Where The NODE Institute, Germany
Hello vvvvolks,
It’s happening! After many moons of deep contemplation and hard work we are thrilled to announce the first public preview release of Fuse on 14/09/21. We will also be making an online presentation party to accompany the release, kindly hosted by the Node Institute. That's this coming Tuesday at 21:00 Berlin Time…
https://thenodeinstitute.org/event/release-presentation-the-fuse-project/
We will take an introductory tour of what has been produced and discuss future directions for The FUSE Lab.
Hope to see you there,
The Fuse Lab team

Ohyeah!
This time of the month again. First off, for your calenders:
- September 7th: The 13th vvvv online meetup
- September 14th Release Presentation: FUSE
- September 28th: yet to be announced 14th vvvv meetup
Then, as the attentive among you have noticed, we've still not released the long announced 2021.4 release. Frankly, we've been derailed a bit by commercial inquiries that made us shift priorities. And also the VL.Fuse team has been quite annoying in requesting some needed ground-work in VL.Stride... Apart from the delayed release, this is all good for you, because it also means some more new goodies. So rest assured, no time is wasted!
Things you may have missed:
- The NODE Institute has 2 of the recent workshops available as recordings:
- The recording of the first VL.Fuse preview workshop is now available. While at it you may want to subscribe to their YT channel
- Are you into visual state machines? Check out this new proposal
- The always busy Takuma did a presentaion at SIGGRAPH

Here are some new nugets that got minted recently:

Today I'll be giving a presentation at SIGGRAPH online 90% talking about vvvv. If anyone is attending :)
Rendered vs. Real Time: A Deep Dive into the World of Real Time Graphics (Bassdrum) - Presented by Intel
Hear from Takuma, a Visual and Spatial Artist, to get a firsthand look at the exploration of the visual/spatial parameters through the artistic creation of immersive visual worlds through real time graphics. He utilizes top tools including Adobe Creative Suite, Blender, components of Intel® oneAPI Rendering Toolkit, and more.

So where are we?
We have a new release: Update your vvvv beta projects and licenses, vvvv beta 42 is here, including VL 2021.3.3. This means a lot of fixes and improvements!
And then we're still sorting things for the upcoming vvvv gamma 2021.4 release. Besides massive work on new features for VL.Stride as mentioned previously, recently VL.Skia 2d rendering got its GPU backend fixed. This improved its rendering performance and also made the VL.Stride SkiaRenderer node work for AMD cards.
Nothing much else to report at this point other than that while we're quite delayed on our roadmap, things are looking good code-wise. Remeber that you can always follow our daily progress by testing the latest previews. And please don't forget to report issues you find in the forum!

Helo from the devvvvlabs!
If you look at our roadmap, you can see that we had 2021.4 planned for release in June. Now that didn't happen. Here is what happened instead: Guess what, some things took longer than anticipated. So let's recap the state of currently available 2021.4 previews. Besides numerous bug fixes, here is what you already get:
- Speed improvements for working on larger projects are there, but still with some buggers
- TextureFX are there but will see one more round of polishing
- Spout nodes recently got a final polish
- Some little goodies: Renderer ViewPorts, MeshSplit (Experimental), Pipet (Experimental), a non blocking BufferReadback, Custom material overrides, ShaderFX node factory, automatic ShaderFX input pins for all shader types
- Reworked, convenient Buffer and Texture creation nodes have recently been added
- Explicit Type Parameters have recently been added, see discussion
- The This node can be used inside of Create, see discussion
Still in the works for the release: a UI for Settings, simple shader creation, Entity picking, a TexturePlayer. Other things like the planned NuGet update are currently on hold and may have to be moved to the next release.
As many of you do, you can always help by testing the latest previews and reporting issues in the forum!

What's on and going?
I can tell you that:
We've just released a 2021.3.3 bugfix release including a killer feature: console export. think about it...
Then if you're brave enough to test drive the 2021.4 previews you'll now see the promised speed improvements while patching when working on larger projects. We're still aware of some hoops there, so please be gentle and report all your findings with this.
Coming up next: We're still working on smoothing out issues with TextureFX, building a UI for the settings and improving the NuGet integration for the coming release. Plus, if we're lucky there'll be some surprise goodies ready in time...
