Starting from Release 2.0, Unreal Engine 5.1 is now the Recommended Version to use with PANORA|make !
Unreal Engine 4.26-5.0 will only receive bug fixes if critical, but otherwise won't receive any new big updates or features.
If you are updating from a version 1.x of PANORA|make, note that your Height-Based and Slope Masks will be broken as they work differently in the 2.0 and beyond.
It is recommended (REQUIRED FOR HEIGHT-BASED) to restore them to default and start from there !
Changelog

Color Picker fixes
Slope Advanced Mode fixes
2.1 Update
Re-added the Min/Max Slope Angle Feature as a cleaner, separate "Advanced Mode" option in the Slope Mask.

Interface bugs fixes
Tooltips Additions & Improvements
^ Updates Starting from here are only for Unreal Engine 5.1.
Only critical bug fixes could be applied to UE 4.26-5.0 if really needed.
PANORA|make 2 Upgrade
Complete rework and polishing of the Builder Interface, with expandable elements everywhere to reduce the amount of unneeded options the user faces, and to make the interface more responsive when using the builder in fullscreen or slimed down.
Trimming down of the un-needed features of the shaders previously available and global optimizations to improve performance and reduce shader compilation time. See the removed features at the bottom of this changelog.
Rebuilt Height-Based and Slope masks for better performance and more predictable outputs.
Overhauled Exporting and Importing functions; now the Presets exported from the Interface also export and reimport Links.
Unreal Engine 5.1 support.
Sub-Layers that are uncached (so expensive) now have their status color set in Red.
Added ability to go to the used texture's place with the new Folder button.
Added ability to reinitialize masks to their default values.
Added ability to use a texture that is selected in the Content Browser with the new arrow button on the thumbnails.
Added Uniform ORM, Max Specular & Channels values support for the Satellite material.
Added support for the "ORD" Packed Maps (Occlusion, Roughness, Displacement) sometimes used in Megascans. (Or manually created)
Added Grass Adjustements to the Builder interface. See Grass Settings for more Informations.
Tons of various bug fixes.
These redundant features have been removed in 2.0 in an effort to optimize the Shader and make room for new, more useful features.
