What's New
4.3.0 November 17th, 2024
Version 4.3 Updates:
- Moved suggestions to a collapsed panel to unclog UI
- New Collection system to manage multiple bakes within the same scene
- Re-Baking implemented (just hit bake again and overwrite the previous collection)
- Improved fail-safe messages and overall UX
if particles don´t appear to be rotating make sure to enable the "Dynamic" option in the particle settings
This a a good base for a good add-on. Unfortunately it doesn't work as expected. The rotation of particles is not managed or it is in a wrong way. Some improvement that could be nice IMO:
- Allow user to change the frame range of the baking
- Allow user to chose the collection for the baking
- Move the mini tutorial in the properties panel to the preference panel.
