How goes the progress??

I am thinking to update and reset my context and scripts, clean up house and start my TS again, now that I will be doing a project with a co-worker shortly... thought the lastest of the latest would be great!

[Cellulo]

it's near to be done, but i have no time to make the new chm help that i want with images for the modelside ( with the new icons ), this will be the old help chm with no images but you can always found the images in the pdf files of course. i want to make a big chm with all tutorials taked on the web, but no time to do that

Hey Draise remember it's only for modelside, maybe someone can make the same job for Workspace with all plugins availabe, and also maybe someone can make a new updates that include the last scripts updated for the workspace, i'm not really familiar with the workspace.

Here my last update for the modelside addon ( the complete list is inside the txt file ):

Thank !
You forgot adding caustic in Lightwork engine.

What is conversion pack 2.1? Is it the one that will save out to .b3d, md2, md3? If it is then can you post it as a stand alone?

[Cellulo]

seppgirty: ts conversion pack 2.1 can do "shockwave 3D export", "viewpoint export", "Autocad DWG import/export", "StereoLithography (STL) Format import/export", "Initial Graphics Exchange Specification (IGES) Format import/export" and last "ACIS SAT Format import/export"

Marcel: yes need to add caustic

[Tiles]

Cellulo, just curious, and since you still continue at trueSpace, have you thought about contacting Microsoft to get the source code? I would be interested if there is a way to buy it free in the one or another way

[Cellulo]

Tiles: No i never thought to contact Microsoft for the source code ( what the address mail ? ), i think the better way it's to continu with the petition or make a new one, i don't know, but if we can have the source code from Microsoft, we need coders to check the source code, fix bugs and add new features, i hope in the future the source code can be released, but today Microsoft continu to use the trueSpace engine or no ?

[Tiles]

I dunno. And i don't have an email adress for Microsoft neither. I guess i would start with mailing to the support and ask who to contact.

The petition way is dead from what i can see. Forget that one. Hundret people is simply not enough. There are minimum three zeros missing in that value. What is left is that really somebody starts to poke Microsoft if there is a way to get the source code. Or if Microsoft is willing to continue at trueSpace.

The biggest problem is the potential coders. But we have two or three persons here who could be able to pick up that one. And i guess once the code would be available they would pick it up. And be it just to fix some bugs.

Hmm, just for fun, i think i'll write a mail to the microsoft support now

EDIT, done. Waiting for response ...

[Cellulo]

Cool Tiles, cross fingers and foot too. I hope we have answer soon.
