I installed v2.1.5, but big problem with backwards compatibility to 1.0.2.
None of the textures load on any of the models I load. So just for testing purposes I went through the process of reassigning the dozen of textures to the material. The purpose of using many textures is that they are used over and over again on different models and need to be tileable. Wings3d handles this perfectly, I can create a whole build set with dozens of meshes in one Wings workspace.
Outcome is not good, much more lag than early version. I have 1000's of wings3d files made over the years, and it is prohibitive for me to convert them all. So apparently from 2.0.5 to 2.1.5 compatibility is broken. I am new to this forum, so I have not read if this was by design.
New version supports normal maps, but when I press tab, I don't see the effect of normal maps, it looks like it did in older versions. Is it supported in any other view mode?
Does anyone know when the Collada exporter plugin was added?
I have been using wings for over a decade and it was the fastest modeling program I have ever used for low poly models. See my work here:
