Release Name: 0.98.17a Notes: - New command in all modes: Vertex Color. - A texture can be assigned to a material by dragging the texture image to the material in the Outliner. - File|Import Image would cause a hard crash. (Problem reported by infinder.) - The emissive color is now correctly exported to VRML format. (Correction by Clemens Fuchslocher.) - Using a default command with a temporary selection that switched selection mode would crash. (Problem reported by wasamonkey.) - When entering a text field using Tab, the text was not automatically selected. (Problem reported by Vast Deathmaster.) - In the Maya camera mode, you had to release the Alt key to exit camera mode in order to execute a command having a hotkey including Alt (such as Alt+G for growing an edge ring). (Problem reported by xr4y.) - Virtual Mirror|Break and Freeze will not operate on hidden or locked objects. Also, if there is selection, only objects having any selection will have their mirrors broken/frozen. (Problem reported by OwenR.) Linux version: (So far, the Linux release can only be found in the Download area in http://sourceforge.net/projects/wings.) Just as the Mac and Windows releases, the Linux version is self-contained (it includes a stripped down Erlang/OTP and ESDL). I have chosen to package it as a shell script rather (rather than an RPM) to make it as widely useful as possible. Temporary problem: To fool web browsers that think that the the .run file was a text file, I have compressed the .run using gzip. To pack up the file: gunzip wings-0.98.17a-linux.run.gz To install, type 'sh wings-0.98.17a-linux.run' at a shell prompt. It will install Wings in your home directory. To run the installed Wings, run the 'wings' script in the install directory. So far I have only tested the Linux package on my Redhat 9 Linux system. Note: There is no file dialog plug-in included, as I haven't got WingsOne's qt_file plug-in to work reliably on my Redhat 9 system (using the Gnome desktop). Any help from you Linux gurus out there would be appreciated. Ideally, I would want to distribute a file dialog plug-in that would work on as many Linux systems as possible. (It could be based on QT or GTK or whatever.)
