Good beginner tutorials can be found here (german and english, a bit outdated)

please tell me if you find bugs or have specific requests. i will try to fix/implement as fast as possible.

1.1.14 changelog:

* reworked export routine. in extreme cases up to 10x faster export(even more if you heavily use instances. xml generation that is, mesh export is as fast as ever)
* a few little bugfixes
* improved instance handling (MUCH faster, better).
* very detailed console output with lots of infos.


1.1.14 known issues:

* i actually forgot the little bugfixes

Which kind of instance are? Cinema or cindigo's one?

In the above renderings i uses Cindigos instances, because i needed to include an external .ply file.

When you are instancing C4D objects, it doesnt matter if you use C4D's or cindigos instances, internally they are handled the same way.
When it comes to heavy instancing, one should use cindigos, because of the memory C4Ds instances use (they actually duplicate the object in memory, imagine what happens if you try to make 100 instances of a 1million poly mesh).

One might use the display tag

what for?

For not displaying the instances that are still in the memory

Great Job, as always!
Instances are working very well here; even rotated by XPresso … wonderful.
Textures don't have to be situated in the same folder as the models.
Polygon selections and multi-materials are supported … this fuckin rocks!

fused, are there any other mapping functions supported than UV-mapping?

this is awsome fused !

thx

Thanks Fused

Thanx fused!

GREAT , thnx fused !

the new default settings in the export window are so comfortable!

Thanks for that minor modulation.

Looking foward to following improvements and features

hello fused, thanks for your hard work.
I was playing yesterday with a scene that worked fine in 1.1.13 PC versions of Indigo and Cindigo, but when I switched to 1.1.14 Indigo crashed with some of the instanced objects while other instances didn't send error message, Indigo said that it couldn't load a mesh that indeed didn't exist in the meshes folder.
can you check this?, all objects with instance problem were imported.
Thanks again.
