MagicaCSG 0.1.0 Beta (Patreon)

---------------------

[Update Log]

• Save often.

    - There are still issues. Renderer and Exporter are not implemented yet.

• Instancing

    - Duplicated objects are instances by default (SHIFT+Drag, Paste, etc.).

    - Instances are good since they don't require as much resource as copies.

    - You can still use "Select->Ref-D" to convert instances to a duplicated copy to edit the shapes without affecting the original copy, but it will increase gpu ram usage.

• Switch between shape editor and world editor

    - press Tab key

    - Double-Click object to enter the shape editor.

    - Double-Right Click to exit to the world editor.

• Independent resolution

    - Press ⊕ / ⊖ to change the resolution of volume. Only increase resolution for detailed models.

    - Keep an eye on the top-right corner of the GPU RAM usage.

    - The resolution is not fixed. It can be automatically adjusted to avoid memory overflow.

---------------------

[Difference from prototype]

• Small visual artifacts.

    - Will provide more global settings for better quality with trade-off of performance or memory in the future.

Difference from prototype:

• Added back ply export.

    - Objects will be saved into separate files (with suffix -2, -3, etc.).

    - Color and instancing export is not supported yet.

• Snap Move

    - CTRL+Drag move gizmo to make corresponding axis align with the surface normal.

    - It's Z axis by default if you drag on the surface.

• Create a new object with selected strokes.

    - Copy/Cut strokes in Shape mode, then paste in World mode.
