Wings 0.98.11 - is OUT!

[Napoleon XIV]

The website is down, The End is Near!

/me runs in a panicky way and promptly crashes into a wall and falls over.

[Napoleon XIV]

Correction, It works... Don't know why it broke for a few minutes...

[SheepFactory]

Its down again :\ ,

What are the new improvements?


is slide and tweak updated for the current version? (crosses fingers)

[tsuru]

Here's Bjorn's list:

- Import/export plug-ins will need recompilation.

- Camera dollying and panning changed to take the camera distance into account,
so that the speed will be reasonable also close up or far away.

- There is new checkbox in Edit|Preferences: "Hide Selection While Dragging".
Hiding the selection while dragging in interactive commands is faster and
it is easier to see the model.

- New checkbox in the Edit|Preferences dialog box:
Hide Selection While Moving Camera. (Thanks to Bay Raitt.)

- In Edit|Advanced Preferences, there is now a checkbox named
"Right Click or Hotkey Selects in Geometry Window".
Turning on it will cause the highlight to become selected
when you right click or execute a command through a hotkey.
(Thanks to Bay Raitt.)

- Wings will APPEAR to be faster and will have a higher "framerate".
(Thanks to monsieurblack.)

- Mac OS X: Command+S to save a file would crash (as would hotkeys for
opening, importing, exporting, and so on).
(Problem reported by Taiyo.)

- Entering integers in floating point fields having sliders would cause
"0.00000000000000000000e+000" to be inserted. (Problem reported by jhoogeterp.)

- Combining an object with a texture with an object without a texture would
cause a crash when switching to proxy mode. (Problem reported by Dremul.)

For developers:

- Added a field for materials to the #e3d_object{} record.
(Import/export plug-ins will need recompilation.)

- New function: e3d_mesh:used_materials/1.



Unfortunately Sheep, clacos still hasn't updated :(

[SheepFactory]

Anyone heard from clacos?

I havent seen him post anything wither at the official board or here :(

I hope he is still developing for wings :(

[amsmf]

Based on info in the wings forum at ezboard, clacos isn't going to renew the plugins until version 1.0 of wings. Until then you'll have to do without, or use the older versions of wings which can use his plugs.
