Wings 3D 1.1.5 Beta / 1.0.1 Stable

Wings 3D 1.1.5 Beta / 1.0.1 Stable offers a powerful tool to create 3D models and customize them. Wings 3D is a subdivision modeler that can assign textures, UV coordinates, vertex color and materials, but there will be improvements in those features before Wings goes 1.0.

Enhancements

• Fixed Tweak drag Normal.
• Moving or duplicating a light in body mode would cause a crash on the next attempt to select anything.
• Marquee selection would selected locked vertices or edges.
• Select|Similar is now faster if the initial selection contains elements that are similar to each other.
• The Wavefront (OBJ) exporter now tries to minimize the number of smoothing groups.
• Fixed loading models when in smooth-preview mode.
• There is a major internal change in how vertex attributes (i.e. vertex colors and UV coordinates that are associated with a vertex in a particular face) are handled.
• Vertex attributes used to be stored in the edge table (with two words per edge always reserved for vertex attributes) and each vertex could have EITHER a vertex color or UV coordinates.
• Vertex attributes are now stored by themeselves. Objects without vertex attributes will consume less memory (two words per edge less than in previous releases). Each vertex can now have both a vertex color and UV c....
