[Plugin][$] Vertex Tools
-
I wonder what could cause one of your computers to have problems... do you have problems with other plugins? Or SU tools?
-
-
hmm.... let me know if the same issues should manifest them selves on any other computers.

Hi Thomas!
Been working on a project all morning and using a lot of vertex tools to stitch two contour meshes together.
Not sure if this is on your list or has been mentioned previously, but have you considered adding a Vert Drop feature to your plugin? Perhaps pulling some of your testing from your Raytest tools or TIG's drape Cpoints plugin? I've been individually moving verts down on the Z axis to intersect with an adjacent mesh below and just thought what a time saver it would be if I could select a row of verts and just hit Drop. Figured I'd mention it.
-
I have been toying with an idea of a feature where you pick geometry which the vertices will stop on when you move them.
-
Ahh....a Constraint feature. Very cool idea.
There is something similar in Modo. -
Yea - geometric constraints.
-
All is well with your great tool.
Attached is the current status of my major terraforming project (~95% complete).
I could not have done it without Vertex Tools as the major player.
All the areas around the buildings had to be modified, especially those in the upper part
-
Thanks for posting back examples of what the tool is being used for. -
hey. how are things going with this one? any news/progress?
-
Working on some other projects at the moment - but they have elements which I pull into VE. In fact, they are somewhat like prototype trials for VE.
-
When I say VE I mean Vertex Tools - I keep thinking "Vertex Edit" which was the working title...
-
Can't wait!
-
By the way (back on the Vertex Tools thread), how's Version 1.1 coming along?

Several things:
- I've finished adding more buildings and upgraded some of those that are already in.
- Used Vertex Tools to clean up more of the Google Earth mesh mismatches.
- I've purchased Instant Road from valiArchitects.com and plan to make the roads in the GE mesh into "real" roads.
- Although Thea is my primary render program it's still a beta so they won't get to adding EcoSystem capability until long after I need it: so I've purchase Vue 8 Complete so I can export the whole thing with the new SU2Vue plugin and use the EcoSystem to add "real" bushes and trees. This is going to take a while since I've never used Vue before.

I've had a month of two of less productivity - in general in regard to plugins. Been a wee bit pre-occupied with buying appartment etc and other boring real life things.
But I have been working on the new Gizmo system - manipulators which I think will make it quicker and easier to handle the selection.
I hope to preview it in a video soon. ( Not a Vertex Tools video - but a new toy...
)Once I got that system polished I plan to add it to VT 1.1 along with some other improvements.
