WTools3D has released v5.2 of its set of CAD and Archviz tools for LightWave 3D. New features include:
- Smart Selection – LightWave selection tools with smart selections are initialized with LightWave selection
- NURBS offset algorithm improved precision of end point tangents (interpolation mode)
- NURBS extrude algorithm improved precision when extruding NURBS surface (interpolation mode)
- Clone Tools – instances new clone tools supporting LwCad instances
- Clone Tools – random module new random functions included in all cloning tools
- Clone Tools – collisions module new collision functions included in all cloning tools
- Point Clone – new clone tool for cloning to certain point with rotation possibility
- Line Clone – new clone tool for cloning along line,curve or spline (partially replacing Vector Clone)
- Array Clone – completely rewritten array clone tool with new pivot and bounding modes
- Radial Clone – completely rewritten radial clone tool
- Surface Clone – new clone tool for cloning on polygons and NURBS surfaces (replacement for Spray Clone)
- UV Random – new tool for UV maps randomization
- Snap Panel – new INST snapping parameter, snapping to important points on instances from Shape Library
- Automatic installer – installer is able to do automatic installation even if LightWave doesn’t have configuration files
- Options Panel – new precision parameter, drawing dimensions in viewport with custom precision
Plus a number of minor improvements. Read the list of new features and find out more on WTools3D’s website.
