L1 Plus

L1 Plus is the most significant model update we've shipped. It's a ground-up improvement to how Marso Measure reads and measures material data. Better metal separation, more consistent roughness, stronger normals, more accurate colour, plus the ability to tweak before export for an improved user experience.

Metal / non-metal separation

Bleed between metallic and dielectric regions creates incorrect light response in-engine - and manual cleanup work that shouldn't be there. L1 Plus produces cleaner, more reliable masking.

Roughness

Roughness inconsistency across a surface is one of the clearest quality signals in real-time rendering. L1 Plus delivers more stable values across the surface, so your assets hold up across more lighting conditions without correction.

Normal maps and colour

Sharper normals, more accurate colour. Closer to what was actually captured.
