Image Node Preview v1.4 for Blender

Requirement: Blender 2.8, 2.81, 2.82, 2.83, 2.9, 2.91, 2.92 | File size: 5.1 MB

A Blender addon that shows thumbnails for image texture nodes in the node editor.

Features
- High performance: Thumbnails are generated by a C++ worker thread in the background, the Blender UI stays fully responsive at all times
- Low memory usage: Each thumbnail takes up 265 KiB of graphics RAM (regardless of the size of the previewed texture). 100 thumbnails would use 25.6 MiB - a negligible amount.
- Supported image formats: jpg, png, hdr, exr, psd, tga, bmp, gif
- Cycles/Eevee nodes supported (Image Texture and Environment Texture)
- Octane nodes supported (Image Tex, Alpha Image Tex, Float Image Tex, Image Tile Tex, Instance Color Tex)
- No changes are made to the .blend, others without the addon can still open your scenes without problems
- High-resolution displays supported (works with Blender's resolution scale feature)

Caveats
- Thumbnails are not displayed for packed images
- Thumbnails of image sequences are not updated when changing frames
- TIF images currently not supported
