The 13.1 series represented a significant leap in how Nuke handles machine learning and 3D space:
While this version runs on macOS, native Apple Silicon support was a focus for later versions (like Nuke 14 and 15). Workflow Tools in Nuke Studio
Nuke 13.1v3 is qualified for use on several modern operating systems and hardware configurations: The Foundry Nuke Studio 13.1v3
Nuke can now display real-time performance timing data in the Node Graph, coloring nodes from green (fast) to red (slow) to help artists identify bottlenecks in complex scripts. System Requirements & Compatibility
The update includes overhauled 3D transform handles that align with Katana’s standards, offering better control over object placement. New widgets allow for multi-axis transformation and the ability to move pivot points without shifting geometry. The 13
Released on March 10, 2022, is a maintenance update within the Nuke 13 series that focuses on stability, AI-driven workflows, and enhanced 3D user experience. While a "v3" release primarily targets bug fixes, it inherits the major architectural shifts introduced in version 13.1, such as the upgrade to Python 3.7 and the integration of the PyTorch library.
