v2.0 (Alpha) Stability / UX improvements of core features | 4R8 P2 API supportĪ special thank you to Marcus Civis of ZBrushCentral for his continued support and education.The Radeon Pro WX 7100 and WX 4100 will be available on-shelves next Thursday, Nov 10, at $799 and $399 respectively.Reference planes must be centrally located at 0,0,0.Tiling Tools and Auto-Tile only work correctly when the reference plane is Z-Facing.This is most useful for viewing your current Tile Area settings. This section allows you to view information about the state of the plugin. Auto Groups and Merge Similar is automatically applied. Auto-TileĪuto-Tile will loop through your subtools, based on your Batch Mode, and will perform the Tile commands automatically by detecting where the subtool is located within the Tile Area, and if it is overlapping the Tile Area boundary. This is useful if you have a reference plane or something else as your top-most subtool. Performs the command on all subtools EXCEPT the 1st subtool in the list. Helper buttons are provided that will set the First and Last target values based on the selected subtool. Range is based on a 0 based index list: 0 = 1st subtool, 1 = 2nd subtool, etc. Performs the command only on subtools within the target range.
Performs the command only on visible subtools. Performs the command only on the selected subtool. This is particularly useful for meshes whose boundary vertices are meant to be connected and welded. Also performs a “Weld Points” on the final merged result. WeldĮnables “Weld Merged Tool Points” during subtool merging. Auto ScaleĪutomatically scales objects based on Target count, to fit the Tile Area OffsetĬenters the 1st mesh on the edge of Tile Area, instead of placing it inside of the Tile Area. Slight resizing will be applied in order to fit the Tile Area. Padding Auto CountĪutomatically determines total subtool count based on selected subtool size. Sets the desired total number of subtools, including copies and the original. This is necessary for matching polygroup IDs after multiple copies of the same subtool are merged together.ĭuplicates will be created along the selected axis. If enabled, “Merge Similar Groups” will be performed on the duplicate / merged subtool. “Auto Groups” will be performed on the duplicate / merged subtool. If enabled, the duplicate subtool will be merged with the original source subtool. Use this when you make a drawn inserted IMM tile-able. If enabled, “Masking” and “Split Hidden” operations are performed before the duplication and offset. Select a reference plane subtool and then press ‘Set Space’.Ĭurrently the Reference Plane should be centrally located at 0,0,0 IMM
