Ever wished you could quickly erase a blemish from an image before projecting? In Mari 7.1, our new 2D Painting Mode lets you make tweaks, create decals, and even paint entirely custom patterns from scratch for unique, fully editable materials. Not only that, we’re reintroducing Smart Masks ready to add life into your textures.

Mari 7.1 in action.

2D Painting Mode
Easily paint a 2D image with full Node Graph or Layer support to create decals or make edits for use in your texturing projects. Version 7.1 combines access to the full Mari functionality you love, like the paint buffer, Node Graph, and layer stack, with a powerful new 2D painting mode. Quickly bring any image into this new mode for painting 2D images and custom decals, or clone out imperfections from reference images without disrupting your creative flow and needing to leave Mari.

Additional content & assets
Get more out of the box with Mari thanks to more ready-made presets with a revamped Smart Mask Shelf (previously the Custom Procedurals Shelf), including more than 50 Smart Masks and utility nodes designed by industry professional Stuart Ansley, as well as Johnny Fehr’s grunge maps. These effects imitate a variety of different results, enabling you to bring life to your textures.

Node Graph UX
In this release, we’ve improved the Node Graph to enhance the procedural user experience — meaning fewer clicks and better learnability. This includes the addition of Paint Node Creation Presets, Switch Node and, Save Nodes to Shelf Items — all designed to streamline your Mari experience.

Paint Node creation presets
To improve the general user experience of the Node Graph, and remove excess clicks from the artist’s day, we’ve updated the Paint Node. Now, when creating a new Paint Node, you have the option to select from a batch of pre-selected swatches regularly used by artists or add your own swatches to the new Color Presets Shelf in the Paint Node creation list.

Switch Node
With Mari 7.1, you can export your material with different color variations, quickly switching between different looks for your textures by simply changing the input from the Switch Node’s Properties. This significantly improves performance, while enabling versatility when creating materials or Smart Masks.

Save Nodes to Shelf Items
Artists can now export part of the project’s Node Graph as Node Packages. Similar to Materials and Smart Masks, Node Packages bundle up the Node Network, along with any source images, into a single file. This provides easier portability of premade Node Graphs between artists by removing the need to re-import images that cannot be found at their original paths.

Backdrop Nodes
We’ve introduced Whole Backdrop Selection as part of our continued efforts to improve the node interaction experience. Now you can click anywhere within a Backdrop node to select the node and others contained within that area, improving your organization and saving you time on laborious tasks.

INSTRUCTIONS:

Do everything like in the install-windows.txt in crack folder BUT

dont put license files in folders like in readme.txt but I put it in FLU in section License Install

When Mari opens and shows error for no license then I click on local license -> connect to server and put
port: 60530 (I don’t know if this can be other port but I got it from [SCREENSHOT])
address: localhost

open empty PPoE connection in control panel (some guy on old video on yt did that and it worked), user/pass doesn’t matter just create one without connection to internet

For windows 11 I guess: run mari in windows 8 compatibility and rerun it whenever it crashes, it will eventually run and should run correctly from now on
