      Whats so bad about the current SDS that you need a free upgrade to win you over?

          I really don't know the answer to this. It is too early to say. I really hope we can set up a system on Smustard to provide a nominal upgrade price for those who bought. As far as I know, Smustard is still not set up to do this. I know RickW was looking into this and I intend to ask him what the status is.

              Sorry for being a bit snappy there andrew, i thought you meant it in 'SDS wasnt worth the cash the first time so we should get a free upgrade' sort of way ๐Ÿ˜ณ Thats obviously not the case.

                  Hi, i was wondering how can i add a thickness to a curved object'surface? eg like offsetting it. The reason of asking is let say if i have to creat a mould for a product, and i need to give a thickness to the rapid prototyping machine.

                    Have a look at fred06's joint pushpull plugin (you should be able to find it in the ruby forum.) Sounds like it should do what your after.

                      could you not just have ver-3 and ver-3upgrade as two seperate scripts (products) on smustard?

                            I'm a bit confused here. What profiles are you able to use in SDS? Are you maybe talking about profile builder?

                                Don't want to have a unused scrip hanging in the plugins folder. But perhaps installer that looks existing subsmooth, removes it and then installs a new one, would do the trick.

                                    looks interesting, though.

                                      Hello there,

                                      There have been great sugestions for new for new SDS features, i would love to define the crease hardness or softness, kind of like you showed in your BLEND mock up. Also it would be very nice to have a free move tool, where we can select vertices and move them in a free way, just like it function on 3d studio max, so it would'nt be so anoying when the actual move tool kind of stick to the axes and the surounding geometry.
                                      And one more question, for when can we expect the new version of SDS?

                                      Greetings

                                        Thanks for your suggestion. What do you mean by 'move them in a free way'? It sounds like you want inferencing disabled for vertex movement and be able to move them left/right/up/down relative to the current camera view. That should be possible.

                                        As for the next version, development has been a bit delayed but I hope to resume work on the plugin very soon.

                                          Hello there,

                                          By "move them in a free way" i mean move the vertices (and if possible any other element such as edges, planes groups etc...) with much more control. For instance, in 3ds max the move tool offers the possibility to move on the axes, on a plane (xy, xz, zy) and it does not stick to any distances or surrounding geometry, therefor its much easier to move any geometry. Obviously it would be useful to enter a certain distance for the movement like it already works on sketchup. I've attached an example of the 3ds max interface, i suggest you install 3d studio and try it yourself to undertand how the move tool works.

                                          I also attached my work in progress for my LAMBO, i was waiting a long time for a tool like SDS, because i'm a great car design enthusiast, although sketchup was not a good option for car modeling. But now with SDS i'm in HEAVEN...LOlOL

                                          Greetings;)

                                            There is no problem in SU with what u re asking for .
                                            U can move whatever u want in whatever direction u want..for vertices take the move tool and when is highlighted left click on it and there u go ,,u can move it.
                                            By pressing once the up ,left and right u lock the moving direction in blue ,green and red direction.

                                            Hope it help!
