Even though I have not fixed the GUI bug yet, I still wanted to release this final version 1 for people without this GUI bug, because fixing that bug might take some time. This means people with this bug will have to wait a little bit longer to try this out.

Please read the help file. It describes most of the problems you can encounter. It also describes how to use a lightmap in your game. So read the help file before asking questions.

One example has been added to play with. Also there have been many bug fixes, I can't remember all of them, but I think that all reported bugs (and some I found myself) are fixed. (except for the GUI bug)
So if you had a bug before, you should try it again with this version to see if I fixed it or not. But if there are still bugs, plz post them here, so I can fix them.

Also a few features have been added since the beta, like a bit smoothing control (like autosmoothing) and a bit texture reducing to keep the texture as small as possible.

Anyway, I hope everyone will be happy with this program and I hope it will be used by some people.
It is free to use for anyone, so you don't need to credit me or anything. (only if you want to ) I'm already happy if anyone uses my program, so I didn't make this only for myself.

just ran the editor man definately love the additional camera movement setup ... makes it feel better to me.

i hope that once Rob released his "BlueUI" you can use that for some better UI - gonna try out some things later see what i can do (see if i can't break it for you to fixx more things lol)

I've probably fixed the GUI bug many experienced.
Download the fix here (It's a new executable, use it instead of the other one)

Ok. Good news: Patch 1.01

I forgot to do some very obvious optimizing , so I did it now. I actually got it to work 75% faster than v1 with the IT example scene. (good result )'

So here it is. Patch 1.01. Just replace the exe. I have a normal version and a GUI fix version. Download the one you need.

Normal:
