You may turn off "export 2sided faces" during export (theres an options button allowing you to specify some settings).

You can export cameras in the .3ds format (requires pro). Find it under "options" during export

Regarding toon texture look you could always do something like color seperation in the graphics package of your choice. that way all fallofs get split up and look less airbrushed.

I made the experience that guidelines are best pulled out from a line away from any endpoints or centerpoints. Otherwise you often end up with construction points or the like. If the tape measure is completely reluctant to obey, i use to hit STRG/CTRL on my Windows PC once or twice. Might work on a Mac with the Apple key?

I noticed this doesn't work with SU 6 because of this line:

model.start_operation("Face(s) to Group(s)",true)

if you edit it to

model.start_operation("Face(s) to Group(s)")

leaving out the second parameter it works in SU 6.

Thanks for the plug, anyway.

Right. I have been using this:

It ain't pretty, but it is clear and even explains a little about the reason.

Thanks for the tips Jim and Daarboven, I've updated the script to check for this.

Thanks for the update, and yes, the version conditional is much more readable!!! If the start_operation method would have default values for the parameters, older versions would have stayed out of trouble

Ein Plugin, um über Linien eine Fläche aufzuspannen (ähnlich einer Haut oder Seifenblase). Die erzeugte Fläche kann nachher "aufgeblasen" werden. Perfekt für Segel, Banner, Gummiboote etc...

You could draw a face in the same plane as the lines, then select all and Right-Click->Intersect

Neat trick!!!

if this is "find the difference" i'd guess the altar was altered....nice clean style,btw.

Here's a little fun i had with a quickly drawn architectural piece (loosely resembles the Sponza Atrium) and some different light settings. Self illumination included!

It has some light leaks that i was to lazy to fix but it rendered real fast as log as i did not use bump maps which really can slow things down!
