Hey guys!

We’re excited to announce another true mega release! 300+ scans are now available including branches, large surfaces, snow detail surface scans, a bunch of new volcanic rocks and cliffs, tussocks, leaves, plants, bark chippings and much more.

Another very exciting update is that Megascans Studio now fully supports 32 bit import and export. A range of new file formats are now also supported, including EXR, TIFF and TGA. Megascans Bridge also comes with a number of notable improvements, including Maya export support and improved 32 bit to 8 bit conversion.

Also, we are very pleased to award all Hobby subscribers by adding 32 bit EXR displacement maps for free to the subscription. Displacement EXRs will be automatically downloaded from now on, and you may download EXRs for the materials you already own!

Up next is a wide range of ArchViz surfaces, including wood, marble, fabric, leather, and a few extra surprises. For studios and the more technically minded, we are also very excited to soon be unveiling the Megascans API. Shortly we will also start to reveal the 3D plant scan library. Stay tuned!
