Hey folks. We have a new version of Bforartists ready

The download can as usual be found in the download section: http://www.bforartists.de/content/download"
More info can be found in the Release Note: http://www.bforartists.de/wiki/bforarti ... senotev092"

Bforartists Version 0.9.2 is around cleaning up the menus and connecting some loose ends. It adds some more tools to the toolbar editor. We have over 50 new icons. Again quite a few double menu entries were catched and removed. Some more tools made it into the tool shelf. The Toolbar type View is gone, and replaced by the Toolbar Type Mesh Edit. It also brings a few important fixes. The Mac build now compiles. The Player and quite a few other missing things is now onboard too.

And we have again some vital changes at the keymap to remove some conflicts and inconsistencies. Most important one is that Move and Rotate in the Viewport is now switched to be consistent with the rest of the editors. Now the Middle Mouse button pans the view like in the Image Editor. And Right Mouse rotates the view.

What is also new is that we have a Mac version now in the downloads. And a Linux version is around the corner. Should go online within the next two or three days.

Happy exploring and testing

Kind regards

Reiner

Great steady update cycle!

I should take a look at it again. How are the Texture Slot bugs going? I don't remember if I filled that one out in the bug reports.

Awesome work. I showed an earlier version of it to the director of a Blender studio here in Bogota. He loved it, though he saw some little issues with adopting it to his studio pipeline. I will keep on trying it out now and then to see if I can adopt it to my own eventually.

Hey Draise,

Texture slot bugs? I can't remember such ones O_O

Ah wait, wasn't that one caused by having the wrong renderer activated? Blender starts with the BI renderer. But Bforartists starts with Cycles

Please file a bug report into the tracker if you find a bug. But please make sure first that it is really a Bforartists bug. Bugs that happens also in Blender should be directly reported to Blender, since Bforartists is "just" improving the UI and usabilitiy

We have by the way now also Mac and Linux builds available. Many thanks Francesc and Andre

If I find anything I'll post in the tracker.

I tested the texture slots, and due to being a nube I found it was due to Cycles - as it works differently as the Blender Render engine.
