We'd like to take this opportunity to wish all of our finest customers a Happy New Year 2019.
It's been an interesting ride for us, this 2018 thing. 
It started with a bang as LW got released at midnight GMT - so we launched all of our updated plugins for LightWave 3D 2018 one hour past midnight here at CET. 
We've also finally started to produce and publish more videos, we now have actual content on our YouTube channel.
We have added two new plugins to our portfolio this year:
nodeMeister, which quite quickly got two updates to add Octane support and make it even more flexible to use when working with Load from Scene. https://nm.db-w.com
qckPck was added just recently and will be expanded upon in early 2019.
Existing plugins were updated:
Cryptomatte support was added to exrTrader Pro as well - the only way to generate and save these masks for the native renderer. https://et.db-w.com
We've also added memory compression to the cache used by frameD.
Last but not least, we have also started a project on Patreon so support the future development of the db&w Tools. Our patrons helped us get two new plugins out of the door (Triplanar Image Mapper and Multi-Image Sampler) and will even receive a reflection lines shaders as a little present for Christmas.
So thank you very much for your support in 2018 - here's to a successful and prosperous 2019.
Dagmar & Mike
