Bricksmith 2.5 adds the following
features:
- Multi-threaded file parser (10.6 64-bit only)
- Inlined primitives drawn with faster optimized structures
- Direct primitive vertex interaction
- Cursor-centric zooming
- Supports 3DConnexion mice for part orientation
It also fixes the following bugs:
- Fixed situation in which all viewports could disappear
- Fixed preserving perspective/orthographic view between launches
- Magnification trackpad gesture is smoother
Bricksmith 2.5 offers several more speed improvements; notably, it completely
expunges the obsolete and slow rendering method which was hitherto used to draw
inlined parts. Models which use inline parts could see substantial improvements.
(Datsville is a good example.)
Also new to Bricksmith is the long-awaited ability to reshape primitives using
onscreen handles, rather than typing in vertex coordinates.
Bricksmith requires Mac OS X 10.5 or later, and may be download it at
http://bricksmith.sourceforge.net/. It is both Intel and PowerPC native.
Sincerely,
Allen Smith
