\"Train<\/a><\/p>\n

We have released updates to both MegaFiers and MegaShapes. A new feature in the MegaShapes package (also included in the MegaFiers version) is a helper script to make it easier for multiple objects to follow a spline path in a connected way for example a train. The system allows you define the spacing between objects and also allows wheels to be steered separately from the main object if you want.<\/p>\n

MegaFiers also sees a couple of bug fixes as well as some additions to the common params for each Modifier, you can now add a label to each modifier so in the event you have a lot of modifiers attached to an object you can track down the one you want by looking at the ‘Label’ string. Also a LOD value was added thanks to Sergio Barrera which allows for modifiers to be disabled or or enabled via a lod system, a LOD manager helper script is also included.<\/p>\n

Changes in MegaFiers<\/h3>\n
\n
    Added a Label field to each modifier so making it easier to find the exact modifier you need in a complex stack.<\/ul>\n
      Added code provided by Sergio Barrera have a LOD value for each Modifier so they can be turned on and off via a lod manager.<\/ul>\n
        Included the Mod Lod manager helper script for managing modifier lods.<\/ul>\n
          Bug fix, when using meshes that change vertex counts the internal data structures were not being updated correctly, again thanks to Sergio Barrera this has been fixed.<\/ul>\n
            Train follow has debug lines for easier editing.<\/ul>\n
              Added helper script MegaTrainFollow that allows for multiple objects to follow eg like a train with carriages<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n
