MicroDrop v2.0 release

MicroDrop v2.0

We’ve just released MicroDrop v2.0. You can get it here. We’ve been using this version internally for a few months now, and we think you’re going to love it! It has a lot of new features, including:

  • droplet path routing
  • improved video registration
  • a new profile manager which enables switching between multiple MicroDrop profile directories (e.g., plugins, devices, etc.) on the same computer
  • an improved system for installing plugin dependencies and auto-updating

We’ve created a YouTube playlist showing some of the new droplet routing features.

There’s still a bit of work to do updating the documentation, but instructions for installation and migration from v1.0 are complete.

Please note that there are some important caveats for upgrading from v1.0, but we have posted a method for installing both versions side-by-side to help with the transition.

If you run into any problems with installation, please post them to the dev list and we’ll try to resolve them as quickly as possible.
