Release notes 3.16.4.0 EA

This release mainly brings Demo mode, which allows you to try out BBMOD GUI before you unlock it via Patreon. This mode gives you access to all its features except for export of created data. Additionally it is now also possible to load already existing BBMOD and BBANIM files.

  • Updated BBMOD to 3.16.4.
  • Added Demo mode, which does not require login but has data export disabled. Window caption now contains "[DEMO]" while in Demo mode.
  • Updated Patrons of the release (thank you for your contributions!).
  • Added check for updates.
  • Improved login experience - different login error messages are now displayed based on what went wrong.
  • Added options "Load model" and "Load animation" under the "File" menu, using which you can load already existing BBMOD and BBANIM files respectively.
  • Changed BBMOD's to_file methods are now used to export models and animations instead of copying the imported files to the target destination. This allows us to do additional modifications to them before they are exported.
  • Added tooltips to some of the options under the "File" menu better explain what they do.
  • Fixed a bug where both specular color-smoothness and metallic-roughness textures could be exported for a single material at once.
  • Updated Font Awesome to 6.2.1.
  • Replaced option "Assimp License" with "Licenses", which now opens a window with licenses for all used third-party resources.
  • Changed toolbar now contains shortcuts for "New", "Load Model", "Load Animation", "Import Model", "Import Sky", "Export Model", "Lights" and "Open Docs" options.
  • Added keyboard shortcut F1 for the "Open Docs" option.
  • Fixed deleting a single character from an input using Backspace on macOS.
