LoopTools 4.1 Released!

Eat 3D Blog

Bart Crouch has released an update for his stunning modelling tools script LoopTools!

The script now works with BMesh and the Bridge and Loft functionality has been restored Laughing out loud

Quote:

This major rewrite updates the add-on to using the BMesh structure. I would like to use this place for thanking Paul Kotelevets for his donations, which enabled me to spend time on this update.

Download
You can download the add-on at the main LoopTools website.
At that website you'll also find a lot of documentation, explaining every single setting in the script, as well as what input each tool expects. Please note that this add-on needs a very recent build of Blender, revision 46803 or later. Blender 2.63(a) will not work.

Changes
Below are the main changes. In practise this should mean all functionality which was present at the end of the Blender 2.5x series is now available for Blender 2.6x BMesh.

  • -Works with BMesh
  • -Fixed and re-enabled Bridge and Loft
  • -Removed workaround for Bridge selection states (your bevel-weights are safe now)

Future
Since the rewrite was so big, there might still be some bugs in this version. Please report them (copy-paste the error code from the console, or send me the .blend-file) and I'll try to fix them.
The next steps are adding a new tool (Grease Align) and expanding the functionality of the Space tool. A potential next step could be to improve the speed of all tools, though this will require some research.

 

LoopTools was hands down the most used script for me in 2.4X through to now! Thanks, Bart!

 

Go check it out!
