Version 0.9.33 SLPrims
Version 0.7.0 Export

WARNING - this release is incompatible with the releases before 0.9.33.
Upgrades by previous users will require that both this and previous releases be
installed.

RECENT RELEASES:
-- 0.9.33_07   5 Apr 2007   Fix dimple for spheres.
-- 0.9.33   27 Mar 2007   Fix taper of Box, Cylinder and Prism
-- 0.9.32   24 Jan 2007    Fix cut of cylinder
-- 0.9.31   13 Jan 2007   fix cylinder with hollow circle

-- 0.9.30   8 Jan 2007   fix box with hollow circle
-- 0.9.29   2 Jan 2007   reduce minimum sizes to 1 mm from 1cm, remove description UI


RELEASE NOTES FOR 0.9.33 / 0.7.0
This release fixes dimple for spheres. I hope. It must be used in conjunction with the new release by Thraxis Epsilon of the importer that fixes dimples.
This release does not change the SLPrims script, but only the exporter. New users should install only these scripts. Current users should install only the SLPrimsExport_07.ms script and remove the previous SLPrimsExport_06.ms script.
An example is included to show that dimples work correctly.

Version 0.9.34 SLPrims
Version 0.7.0 Export

WARNING - this release is incompatible with the releases before 0.9.33.
Upgrades by previous users will require that both this and previous releases be
installed.

RECENT RELEASES:
-- 0.9.34_7   14 Jul 2007   Fix twists to have ranges 0-1
-- 0.9.33_07   5 Apr 2007   Fix dimple for spheres.
-- 0.9.33   27 Mar 2007   Fix taper of Box, Cylinder and Prism
-- 0.9.32   24 Jan 2007    Fix cut of cylinder
-- 0.9.31   13 Jan 2007   fix cylinder with hollow circle
--            shear has wrong sign
-- 0.9.30   8 Jan 2007   fix box with hollow circle
-- 0.9.29   2 Jan 2007   reduce minimum sizes to 1 mm from 1cm, remove description UI


RELEASE NOTES FOR 0.9.34 no change to exporter.
Twists now have the range -1. to 1.
There appears to be remaining problem with cylinder twists being in the wrong direction, but I will address this later. There are known problems with the display in max having extra or mis-shaped end caps on some objects.

One might argue that the ranges in the max UI should be like those in the SL UI... but it is not easy - or maybe possibel - to change the ranges on max GUI items on the fly. So the easy fix is to make the GUI in max go from -1 0 +1 and then have the user know that this will look different in SL. No clue why SL is confused in this regard. Other places such as shear user 0 - 1 ranges, so why not twist. Oh well...

This object is incompatible with the previous 0.9.33 release in the handling of twists, but since twists didn't work before, it is hard to argue that the broken behavior must be preserved.
