MagicaCSG 0.2.1
Added 2022-12-11 18:16:46 +0000 UTCI. Dual Material per Object.
You can define two materials Matter->A/B for each object
Use Blend->A/B of stroke to specify which material is assigned to which stroke.
You can then create some embedded and blended materials effects.
II. Material Color Override
Material->Color.
You can define one override color for each material.
Therefore, you don't need to select all the strokes and then modify the stroke color.
And it is faster, since it doesn't require recomputing the entire shape.
III. Background Control
Light->Background->Constant Color/Transparent Color/Sky Color.
With Transparent Color, you can composite the rendered image with other images.
Note that the color is already multiplied with the alpha.
IV. Depth of Field
click Camera->Lens->DOF->Arrow to enable picking camera focus in the scene.
V. Invisible Object in Primary View
Toggle Material->General->Invisible to hide objects only in primary view (still affecting other objects in light bounces).
You can use this feature to hide artificial lights or occluders.

Sorry just learned from 0.2.0 release: Image size can't be modified at the moment. Thanks, looking forward for matual render methods coming back.

2023-02-22 04:42:50 +0000 UTCHi, where can i set resolution of render output? In 0.2.x seems UI relayout and i m lost ...

2023-02-21 03:24:28 +0000 UTCJust to make sure I'm not overlooking it: has the camera FOV been temporarily removed?

2022-12-22 23:24:21 +0000 UTCAmazing stuff! Question.....On my Twitter account [AppNasty] awhile back i posted a shot of my Nintendo New 2DS model in 0.1.2 version from patreon. Is that cool or no? I sent you a message on twitter but you never replied. But a few people made a big deal out of it so I didn't know. From now on ill just post the models themselves and not screens from within these new versions.

2022-12-22 02:32:48 +0000 UTCHi, I have just joined your patreon! I wanted to enjoy using MagicaCSG on my laptop with integrated graphic, but unfortunately the viewport is pitch black... I really do hope you could manage to add support for intel graphic in a future update, that would be the most useful thing for me! These are my laptop specs: Asus Zenbook Flip 13 11th Gen Intel Core i5-1135G7 @ 2.40GHz Intel® Iris® Xe Graphic RAM 8GB LPDDR4X on-board

2022-12-21 20:01:37 +0000 UTCI'm thinking about how to implement similar features in a proper way.

2022-12-21 18:05:32 +0000 UTCIs it possible we may one day see a 'curves' tool, similar to the one seen in womp? It appears to link a bunch of objects together in a line, similar to a tool in adobe illustrator, and then blend them into a shape. The current line tool is nice, but it's just very limited especially when you want long, or complex lines, or smooth curves. Spirals are especially difficult, as is precise lettering or hard edged curves. This sorta tool would go long ways towards more organic shapes and things like (anime) hair.

2022-12-17 10:05:03 +0000 UTCHi, can you tell me which laptop and Intel card you are using?
ephtracy
2022-12-13 14:16:47 +0000 UTCHey there! I wanted to ask if a precision touchpad feature would be possible in the future releases, so that we can orbit with the 2-finger drag. Thanks!

2022-12-13 12:40:36 +0000 UTCHello! You make some really cool 3D modeling apps! <3 I'm using a laptop with integrated intel graphics at the moment and it's a pity that MegicaCSG doesn't support intel graphics :( Do you have future plans for Intel graphics support in MegicaCSG?

2022-12-13 11:11:15 +0000 UTCit does this if your system is picking the default GPU. ex: intel GPU. You would go in graphics settings and force it to use your graphics card, - high performance mode and then selecting the card. worked for me.

2022-12-12 20:04:16 +0000 UTCquick question, i´ve downloaded for the first time and my viewport is all black. I have a geforce gtx... works fine in others 3d apps

2022-12-12 19:35:17 +0000 UTCon my twitter thread. there are also some here.

2022-12-12 08:30:05 +0000 UTCI'm new to this Patreon, where can I find some resources to learn MagicaCSG? Thanks!
Farhan
2022-12-12 03:34:39 +0000 UTCthe technique is different. maybe at some point.

2022-12-12 01:54:18 +0000 UTCInevitable question, can we hope to have invisible objects at one point in MagicaVoxel as well?
