New Refine modes and latest hosts support

Our first update of 2026 is here, focusing on stability and smoother tracking across all plugins.

Better refinement in Nuke

The Smoothing tab in GeoTracker for Nuke now features two Refine modes. The default Precise mode works exactly as before, giving you maximum tracking accuracy, though it can sometimes lead to tiny jumps if the keyframes are inconsistent. The new Smooth mode gets rid of those jumps when keyframes don't align perfectly, even if it slightly affects absolute tracking accuracy.

Additionally, we've fixed TextureBuilder to make it fully compatible with Nuke’s new USD-based 3D system and added support for Nuke 16.1 and 17.0 across all our nodes.

Blender 5.1 and AE fixes

Our add-ons now support the latest Blender 5.1 and include a fix for a texturing issue in GeoTracker and FaceTracker – now the texture grabs as it should!

For our After Effects users, we’ve fixed a bug in GeoTracker for AE that caused inverted UVs on meshes when exporting to Alembic. This fix is especially helpful when sending tracking data to third-party tools (e.g. Wrap It plug-in).

Update to the latest version using the links below. Just as a heads-up, we have another release right around the corner (which is a bit unusual for our schedule), so stay tuned!
