Hard edges by default?

$
0
0
Hey all! Is it possible to set the default edge mode to hard, so that you can, for instance, repeatedly smooth a tesselated object without having to smooth, edge mode, select all, body mode, smooth, repeat? I do a lot of 'mechanical' looking stuff, and hard edge mode would be appropriate most of the time

General Brainstorm: New direction for wings3D

$

Hey Wings3D users... I know I am not exactly a regular member, but I have used Wings3D a lot in the past and consider it to be my favorite modeling application...

So I am here to share some observations and an idea for a longer term development strategy (really just an suggestion, I am an artist not an coder).

Even though there have been many recent updates and smaller improvements I feel Wings3D has reached the point that it does what it was meant to do when it was originally started, e.g. it is an really good box modelling application with an intuitive interface and many useful tools. Due to this the development has recently slowed down to a steady trickle of only smaller improvements and a bit of a "what now?" mentality of the developers it seems.

I think it is also generally understood that making Wings3D more complex by trying to evolve it in a full 3D suite (like Maya etc) and adding animation tools and such, is both against what Wings3D really stands for...

Wings Won't Start on Laptop

UPDATE: 1.4.1 stable seems to run fine, though there are some display weirdnesses. Seems it is just the dev build (which I run on my PC) that has the major problem.

---------------------------------------------------

Wings works great on my desktop so I thought I would try to run it on my old HP Pavilion laptop. Erlang window starts, but the Wings window will only flash on the taskbar and them immediately shuts disappears.

Erlang window reports:
Erlang R14B01 (erts-5.8.2) [smp:1:1] [rq:1] [async-threads:

VRML 2.0 export problem on Strata CX

$

Hi,

First of all, excuse my bad english : )
I'm trying to export a VRML file to Strata : It's a cool way to keep materials ungrouped and the best way to have good results (i think).
BUT when opening the file on Strata, I'm loosing UV mapping coordinates...
I tryed to export .obj : The UV is ok but materials are now grouped...
Could someone help me ? I saw that by the past a plugin was made for better VRML export but the link is dead (and so old) :

Thank's...

STL file import problem

$

Hi!
I have tried to import in wings3d .stl files which I had made in 123D application, but the import was unsuccessful, the result was an empty scene (The stl file included only a simple box). But Blender imported these stl files successfully.
Then I made in Blender an stl file, and this file could be imported in Wings3d.

I think that the problem is between 123D app and Wings3d.
Can you help me to solve the problem?
Thanks.

Regards.

UV parts align

$

Hello there.
From the various UV mappers out there, I found the Wings' one the most simple and straight on for what I need (non-organic).
One thing only I'm missing: how to align an element to another or to horizontal / vertical. This simple thing would make Wings the perfect UV mapper for me. Can anybody tell me a way to get things aligned?

Hi,
WinXP Pro, already run previous Wings3d 0.98, Blender3d 2.49 and 2.5a, have Python 2.5, Directx, all kinds of stuff
I already re-started the comp still the same, also googled to death, no fix that I see.

I just downloaded and installed Wings3d 1.41 today from the wings download.
Installed it, went to run it and got a dump file shourtcut, can't read dump but got the
Erlang Console and this all that was in it:
(no error logger present) error: "Error in process <0.2.0> with exit value: {badarg,[{erlang,binary_to_term,[<<2 bytes>>]},{init,get_boot,1},{init,get_boot,2},{init,do_boot,3}]}\n"
{"init terminating in do_boot",{badarg,[{erlang,binary_to_term,[<<2 bytes>>]},{init,get_boot,1},{init,get_boot,2},{init,do_boot,3}]}}

Crash dump was written to: erl_crash.dump
init terminating in do_boot ()


Abnormal termination

Marketplace for Wings3D

$
0
0
Hi,

I've been looking for a market place specific to wings3d.
A place where people can buy and sell models and services.

When I go to a generic site like turbosquid. e.g. there is no option to search and buy wings3d models.
I know that I could purchase an .obj or .3ds and import in wings, but it's not completely the same.
If the model is wings3d native, I can have more confidence in the quality, and usability.

So my questions are:
1) is there any site on the web that sells wings3d models, or offers wings3d artist services?
2) if not, could this forum maybe add a board for this specific purpose?

Thank you very much,

Development?

$
0
0

As a wings user, I keep tabs on the site to see what upcoming features I can look forward to and get new versions as they come out. Since shortly after 1.4.1 came out, everything seems to have ground to a halt. I know, though, that often times work can continue at a low level behind the scenes on projects such as this, without being visible, so I wonder if this is the case? Are there future releases in the pipes, or is development stalled for the forseable future? That would be a shame, especially considering there were some snapshot releases after 1.4.1 that carried significant improvements, such as vastly improved proxy mode. I know I use 1.4.1.1.36.g53af2 instead of the 1.4.1 release for that reason.


I guess I'm just trying to get a handle on the state of the project, and would appreciate any insight.

Moderator List ...

I hope someone will step up an fill what looks like a big void.  Let's not leave the forum to the wolves and other predators. PuzzledPaul had indicated he might "retire". If this is the case ... someone will need to step it up a bit.  Perhaps the role can be shared ... but still need someone who comes by close to DAILY to perform simple pruning and topic moves, etc, the basic help.

Thanks for 10 years of service Paul.

Highlight of face selected and under mouse

$

Since several version, I am not able to use Wings, because the highlight of face (during mouse "overflight" and after selection) does not work.

This occurs with windows XP, and all versions of wings3D since 1.1.3.

I have seen this in several forums with always the same answer: update your driver. I have updated drivers so it is not an answer.

This problem appeared more than one year ago, and I had it with 2 different PC (DELL)

On my current machine, I made tests with many different version in order to found when the problem appeared.
With the version 1.1.2 and before, it works fine.
With the version 1.1.3, the problem appears for faces, but also for edges and vertices.
From 1.1.4, the problem occurs only with faces.

The problem is the following: when you try to select a face (or a dot or an edge with 1.1.3), the face is not highlighted when you pass the mouse over it. Instead, it is always the same face which is highlighted. (at the...
