Critical Hotfix for Universe Immediately Available Immediate update is highly recommended for Nvidia GPU and Final Cut Pro Users
Friedrichsdorf, Germany – October 26, 2021 – Today, Maxon released a critical hotfix for Universe. It is highly recommended that all users install this update immediately. Universe (version 5.01) fixes a critical bug experienced by users of Windows-based Nvidia GPUs where fractal noise in Universe renders incorrectly. This error affected 18 different plugins that rely on fractal noise for their results (see the affected plugins list below).
This release also fixes a licensing issue for Universe customers who do not own Red Giant Complete or Maxon One when running Universe in Final Cut Pro. This error was preventing proper licensing of Universe when users did not have Magic Bullet Suite installed, resulting in a watermark. This update corrects the licensing issue and eliminates the watermark.
Users are encouraged to update immediately through the Maxon App.
