Looping Lofts update

One of the issues that has frustrated me a little when using our MegaShapes system is the issue of gimbal lock when dealing with twisting looping lofts such as you would get when trying to build a roller coaster object, well I sat down the other day to figure out the maths to fix the issue and finally figured it out, so the next update to MegaShapes will see the new improved transport frame method included which will make life much more pleasant for any users who have been wanting to make looping tracks etc. Below is an image that shows the old transport frame method on the left with the nasty twists in the loop and on the right the same loft with the new method, much nicer.
