Added features.
- Triangulate
- Export Object is OBJ objects
- Objects as Groups
- Group by Materials
- Updated blender website from www.blender.org to www.blender3d.org and write blender version number too.
DirectX exporter now supports animation again. Thanks Ben Omari for the update - there is a bug in armatures (not python?) that can leave the bones looking crazy after export - tab tab to make it return to correct
- Now uses PupBlock where possible
- Uses Mesh for changing mesh names (saves us a full NMesh update)
- Fixed a bug renaming objects from their data - with emprys.
slight updates and cleanups to vrml97 and x3d exporter, the ability to do gzip compression has been added. The redundant vrml exporter has been removed. Thanks Bart
With options.
('Material (*.mtl)', IMPORT_MTL, 'Imports material settings and images from the obj\'s .mtl file'),\
('All *.obj\'s in dir', IMPORT_DIR, 'Import all obj files in this dir (avoid overlapping data with "Create scene")'),\
('Create scene', IMPORT_NEW_SCENE, 'Imports each obj into its own scene, named from the file'),\
'Geometry...',\
('Edges', IMPORT_EDGES, 'Import faces with 2 verts as in edge'),\
('Smooths all faces', IMPORT_SMOOTH_ALL, 'Smooth all faces even if they are not in a smoothing group'),\
* 8% speedup by using list comprehension.
* Slightly better smoothing group import.
* Handles bug in python that puts spaces before every line with '\r\n' line endings.
- minor: added missing theme options (bone_solid, bone_pose, strip,
strip_select) to Blender.Window.Theme and also updated accordingly
(version info) the script that saves themes as scripts and the module's
doc.
Have alredy tested 100's of obj files and cant believe this is the first I have found with negative coords.
May fix the UI before 2.41, Importing a whole dir isnt very user friendly. and may want to support sequence import.
- Cam
Added options.
pup_block = [\
('Apply Modifiers', EXPORT_APPLY_MODIFIERS, 'Use transformed mesh data from each object. May break vert order for morph targets.'),\
('Selection Only', EXPORT_SEL_ONLY, 'Only export objects in visible selection.'),\
('Edges', EXPORT_EDGES, 'Edges not connected to faces.'),\
('Normals', EXPORT_NORMALS, 'Export vertex normal data (Ignored on import).'),\
('Materials', EXPORT_MTL, 'Write a seperate MTL file with the OBJ.'),\
('All Scenes', EXPORT_ALL_SCENES, 'Each scene as a seperate OBJ file.'),\
('Animation', EXPORT_ANIMATION, 'Each frame as a seperate OBJ file.'),\
('Copy Images', EXPORT_COPY_IMAGES, 'Copy image files to the export directory, never everwrite.'),\
]
Obj import was updated to import edges (2 vert faces), will update some more later.
* Improved context, unwraps active object if not selected and makes sure it only unwraps a mesh once even if 2+ instances are selected.
* Added Option to stretch to bounds
* Added option to have a margin, thanks to letterrip
* Fixed bug whe nassigning UV's to zero area faces.
Final (?) updates for 2.40 :) :
- Bob Holcomb sent a better version of his 3ds importer
- Added doc info to bvh2arm: links to doc and mocap tute from author
Jean-Baptiste Perin
- Alessandro Pirovano improved the Lightwave importer.
- Mikael Lagre updated the collada scripts (fixed a bug with camera
lens value)
- Adam Saltsman improved the wings importer (ongoing work with
his pal Toastie).
- Anthony D'Agostino GPL'd his scripts (used Blender's BAL
license previously)
Thanks to all script authors for their work, interest and kindness.
Again, Tom (LetterRip) has played an important part in this, thanks and
welcome :).
For anyone who is interested in boxpacking the logic isnt
that complex and lscm could benifit from using it.
Archimap will use this rather then having the boxpacker inline.
- A Vanpoucke (xand) updated Axis Orientation Copy.
- Additions:
- Campbell Barton contributed the Archimap UV Unwrapper.
- Mikael Lagre contributed Collada importer and exporter (ongoing
work, no support for animation yet).
Thanks to them!
- Mirror bone weights contributed by Thomas Oppl.
- Softimage XSI exporter contributed by Elira (with updates by Mal
Duffin).
Again, thanks to the authors mentioned. And to Tom (LetterRip) for
contacting the authors and making suggestions about scripts we should
include.
- Jean-Baptiste Perin updated his bvh to armatures script to use the new
armature module.
- Johnny Matthews (guitargeek) contributed "Shape Widget Wizard". (Moved
it to the Animation menu in Scripts win)
- Benoit Foucque (dienben) contributed "Blender Lip Synchro".
Thanks to the three authors!
