It is very old, but it works with v2026. BUT there are several 'reverse face' tools available that are newer, less flaky, and probably better... e.g. my own 'Fix Reversed Face Materials' which flips faces textured on their backs and reapplies the material, UV-mapping any textures to suit, and includes several other subitem tools to adjust reversed faces and their materials...

These stories tend to reignite my belief in people. With all the stuff on the news it is easy to see young folk as trouble makers etc. A bit of positive affirmation does the world good. I hope both those boys can get over the trauma and move on to better things.

@tig Thank a lot sat.

One further issue you should address before publishing this more widely - e.g. getting it 'signed' and in the EWH. Its file naming does not follow the proper conventions. An RBZ must contain just one .RB file that registers the extension and a folder of the exact same name. Also the convention is to prepend the users 'name' at the start and even a sub-level if the modules do this. So in your case there should be MendelAI_mesh_tools subfolder and a .RB file named MendelAI_mesh_tools.rb You then edit the RB to load MendelAI_mesh_tools/loader Because previous users might also now have the older badly named file/folder installer and loading you need to do some tidying up. Add some code to the start of the RB to check for the existence of mesh_tools_loader.rb and mesh_tools subfolder in the Plugins folder - use File.exist?(str) or better still similar methods in the fileutilities [which you need to 'require'] which will make deleting the subfolder and its contents much easier. So if these files exist you should also add a UI.message_box() to ask the user to restart to sync everything - next time the rogue file/folder won't be found and the code is redundant, but is still needed in any future updates in case a user has skipped this change in 1.0.2... A manual restart is preferable to a forced quit etc as the user might not have saved some work before updating etc.

I also get the "cannot hide layer that is a part of the active path" error when trying to Generate Quadmesh from terrain. This error occurs even when selecting the contours that are grouped. What fixed it for me: move the group of contours to the root context. This error seems to come up if you are working within nested groups. TopoShaper seems to only work in the master context.

AI, seemingly designed to ruin just about everything. Even Star Trek folks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a4mwr7QLC7c&t=5s

@dancingskirt said in Any AI tools that actually help during early modeling stages?: AI tools or plugins that are genuinely useful during early design, not just for final images? The problem currently is the number of options out there and the speed of improvement. AI is accelerating at such a pace that last month's tool becomes obsolete. ComfyUI is still my preferred option because its local, there's a vast amount of readily available workflows out there and it is flexible. I prefer to keep my interactions with AI outside of the Big Tech bubble.

@Dave-R said in Sketchup and Miniature Modelling STLs: The alternative is to do what it does manually Or maybe just use the free Universal Importer, which is perfectly compatible with Sketchup Make 2017 and it also include a robust decimation functionality powered by the MeshLab engine? https://sketchucation.com/plugin/2275-universal_importer

text by IA from my ideas. FAMINE — Horseman I Here are the final 3D renders of Famine, along with AI-generated illustrations. The bodies are generated with MakeHuman, then reworked in Nomad or ZBrush. The heads are sculpted. Food around Famine's head and roses are 3dscans . Famine No feet. No hands. She cannot search for food, nor grasp it, nor bring it to her mouth. Total impotence. Only Hunger remains. Her body has no digestive system: only a vast vertical mouth, occupying almost the entire height of her torso. A mouth with no release. Around her neck, a necklace made of diamond teeth. Useless teeth. Luxury does not nourish. Her headdress is composed of food. Permanent obsession. She thinks only about eating — yet can never do so. Traditionally, Famine holds a scale. Here, she bites it to deceive her hunger. The plates of the scale become false breasts. She has no breasts. She does not feed. She cannot nourish. The project also engages with fashion and haute couture: fascination with extreme thinness, the aestheticization of anorexia, the glorification of emptiness. The apple licking her feet mocks her. It tickles her, reminding her of what she cannot reach. It is the Apple of Eden. She cannot eat it. Her cape is a tablecloth, held in place by cutlery stabbed into her own body. After prolonged starvation, the body consumes itself: first fat, then muscle. The table is set on her. Famine’s body becomes her own meal. The Starving Anorexic mannequin-like figures. They seek ultimate beauty and glory — symbolized by a halo. But the halo is shaped like a hanger: they are nothing but supports. They starve themselves to become famous. A navel piercing shaped like a star — “star” born from an empty stomach. The Carriage A pumpkin, like Cinderella — a fairy tale turned nightmare. Covered with roses: flower of appearance and glamour, but also edible. At the front, a dragon’s head. It does not breathe fire. It spits acid. Digestive fluids. Famine is not only deprivation. It is obsession with lack. Sterile luxury. A body that devours itself.

OK, I think I have finally generated a multi scene animated presentation with Animator. Here are 2 videos that I hope help you see this. GIF Version [image: 1771035490689-jesus-plaque-fancy.gif] MP4 Version Jesus Plaque - Fancy.mp4 Just to let everyone know, I also posted the same videos in the Animator Plugin thread

OK, I think I finally figured some things out so here are my latest videos. I hope you enjoy them and they can be used to see how Animator can be used to generate animated presentationsl GIF version: [image: 1771034456664-jesus-plaque-fancy.gif] MP4 sersion Jesus Plaque - Fancy.mp4 I am also posting this in the Scene animation with Animator thread. The main point of that thread was to discuss how Animator can be used in multiple scenes for presentation purpose.
