MegaShapes Update
A new update for MegaShapes is now available, in this update we have re written the spline editing code to make it much niser and easier to use, we have removed the clutter of gizmos so now only the point you are editing will have a move gizmo displayed. We have also made it easier to add points to your spline by simply clicking the mid point circle a new knot will be added and on open splines you just need to click the circle gizmo past the end of the spline to add further knots to your spline.
Another new feature is a new smoothing method, this new system will always generate the smoothest spline through all your control points, and we added the option to automatically smooth as you drag a control point or add knots to the spline.
We have also added a custom undo system to the spline editing make it very simple to back track over any changes you make to the spline, you now just need to click the Undo button in the inspector.
And finally MegaShapes is fully Unity 5.6 compatible.
