Legacy versions
Version 2.1
- The Tint Strength input in the Simple Colour Corrector Node was of the colour type, but should be a scalar.
- Added Material Tweaker
- The blending modes in the Material Blender were not processed correctly. Please note that this is a breaking change if either the modes or the opacity were used.
- The min/max nodal inputs of the Remap node were swapped. This is a breaking change.
Version 2.0
- Added Ratio node to split a value according to a percentage
- Added “Luminance Gamma” to the Simple Colour Corrector. This changes the gamma on the luminance channel preserving both hue and saturation.
- Added “Clamp Output” option to the Simple Colour Corrector. This limits the output to the range from 0.0 to 1.0
- Fixed a potential crash in the Simple Colour Corrector if a negative value made it through to gamma changes
- Added “No Radiosity Reflectivity” to Schlick's, causing it to set the reflectivy to 0% for all rays that sample radiosity
- Speed up to the Cache node
- The “Clamp” option wasn't copied with the Remap node
Version 1.9a
- fixed a crash in “Revenge of the Lenscap”
Version 1.9
- Added Schlick's Approximation
- Fixed various issues when nodes were used in Modeler
Version 1.8
- fixed compatibility issues with the pixel filter in LW10

- Added the (experimental) StickyFrontUV node which can create front projection UVs for compositing.
Those stick to the item if it is transformed. Deformations are not supported. - Added a Colour Space node to convert from one colour space to another (LW10 only)

You can copy and paste colour values throughout LW using the following shortcuts (on the colour swatches):
Shift-RMB : Copy Ctrl-RMB : Paste
