RailClone 2.1.3RailClone 2.1.3

New Features

  • Added support for VRay 3.0 beta.
  • New parameter: Style->Geometry->Simple Y Offset mode.
  • RailClone uses a sophisticated algorithm to compute Y Offset paths, but it some cases it would not generate a correct result.
  • We have included an alternative simpler mode that could solve these cases. Enable it if you get distorted geometry when using Y Offset.
  • Added Adaptive mode for Generator->Rules->Default. Bevels are not allowed on this mode.
  • Added Adaptive mode for Generator->Rules->Evenly.
  • Added Vertical Top/Bottom for Segment->Stepped mode. It works similar to Flat Top/Bottom for Vertical mode.
  • Added A2S Generator->Clipping area->Extend X/Y Size to Area->Expand.

Style Editor

  • Style Editor is now integrated within Max. Stay-on-top is not longer needed, all connection issues should be solved.
  • Added Selector operator: selects a Segment according to an index.
  • Added Transform operator: transform and modify properties a segment (alignment, padding, scale, etc.)
  • Added expressions to Arithmetic operator.
  • Added contextual creation menu (using right click->Add or dragging links).
  • New subtype of Numeric parameter: Boolean (returns 0-1).
  • Most of nodes can be turned off (clicking checkbox at right top corner when is selected, or by right click contextual menu). Each node has a specific behaviour when is off.
  • Generator->On field is not longer needed and has been removed.
  • Alt+Click selects a node and its childrens.
  • Added Ctrl+C / Ctrl+V shortcuts for Copy / Paste actions.
  • Allowed zoom over 100%. Set zoom limit at Options->Preferences.
  • Added Options->Preferences->Rename Segments when Reload (on/off).
  • Added Options->Preferences->Show Warning Messages (on/off).
  • Exported parameters are highlighted in red color.
  • Improved undo/redo.
  • Spline node is updated in the Style Editor when assigned from Base Objects and viceversa.
  • Spline can be cleared from Style Editor using context menu->Clear.
  • Material Operator->From/To parameters can be exported.

Improvements

  • Improved precision for alignment of segments with Bend off.

  • Fixed several geometry issues with Generator->Limit by ID.
  • Array Generator using Free mode works correctly with negative Y Size values.
  • Randomize Operator works properly with Start/End/Left Side/Right Side.
  • Randomize->Percentage is limited to 0-100.
  • Fixed Y Offset issues with closed splines.
  • Generator->Default->Scale handles correctly Composed segments.
  • Fixed Y Sequence operator when used with Evenly/Corner.
  • Fixed bug with no-slice segments and paddings.
  • Fixed right menu on Library Browser when there are not items selected.
