Blendigo (for Blender 2.5x) 3.0.14.1

[StompinTom]

Hi Doug!

How is Blendigo going? A couple things that'd be great to get support for to avoid XML hacking:

- combining Sun with EnvMap (possible through XML already)
- texturing the exponent for Glossy Transparent materials

Hope everything is well!

[FakeShamus]

my favorite XML hack is the lo-res mesh proxy - is that gonna happen?

Is there really no better/faster way to add textures?
Too many clicks for a texture you can only use in one material.

Hi, I've actually been unwell for the last 2 weeks and not been able to work at all. I'm under orders to rest up until at least the end of this week, and I'll see from there if I'm able to catch up with Blendigo development.

Sorry to keep you waiting

Would be nice to enable manual setting for white balance.

I hope you will get well !!!

Get well !

Light layer assignment is messed up.

Medium precedence doesn't get exported?

Hi Doug!
- texturing the exponent for Glossy Transparent materials

This is already possible, the "Material Exponent Map" panel overrides the glossy transparent exponent value.

Medium precedence doesn't get exported?

Thanks, this will be fixed in the next release.

will be fixed in next release.

The curve-doubling does not work when you are animating a curve for example using shape keys.

I have a helix consisting of a path/curve that another CurveCircle is extruded along to simulate a twisted pair cable. I have a shape key that flattens the path.curve to a sinusoidal wave in essence flattening the cable to the vertical plane.

As the shape key is associated with the path/curve, converting the whole object into a mesh would not work as I'd loose the curve in the process. So animating the flattening of the cable will not work (at least not as described .

Conversion into a mesh must happen at mesh export in order for that to work.

Extruded curve objects will be supported in the next release
