Bevel Shader

If you want to use the 3 new bevel based baking modes, make sure you download a nightly build of Blender.
I recommend sticking to 2.79 but one of the nightly builds for these new features. Without a nightly build these 3 bake modes will simply not show up. You can tell in the addon preferences if you are missing the bevel shaders.

    this and a lot of others add-ons tends to change the natural workflow of blender. Since I'm using a lot of them,I tend to forget how is the natural workflow of blender. Is it good or not ? it depends...

  2. Hi!
    Nice to see it's getting higher^^

    By the way, this month I planning to release pack of opensource CC0 patterns called "Tissue: Patch".
    It will contain about 200 basic patterns with topological seamless tiling inscribed into rectange.
    There will be clotes, grates, frames, abstract patterns, knitting, chain armor, roof tiles, bricks etc, including all those pentagons collection:

    It is was designed to be an external library to Tissue addon, but seems to be useful there as well)
