Release of Cheetah3D 5.8

30. Aug. 2011


Today sees the release of Cheetah 5.8. The biggest change in v5.8 is the improved compatibility with Mac OS X Lion (10.7). It fixes many small bugs and problems and adjusts the color gradients to fit in better with the Lion window color scheme. The Collada export has been improved so that, under Lion, Preview.app can load Cheetah3D-generated Collada files properly. For non-Lion users, v5.8 also offers some welcome improvements like better Auto-keying, faster F-Curve drawing and better Undo support when dealing with poses.

New features in Cheetah3D 5.8:
  • improved compatibility with Mac OS X 10.7 Lion
  • adjusted layout gradients (Lion)
  • improved Collada export for Preview.app compatibility (Lion)
  • removed toolbar separators (Lion)
  • added new hotkeys
    • record position
    • record scale
    • record rotation
  • improved 3DS UV import/export
  • removed support for caps lock modifier key as hotkey
  • added undo to the following commands:
    • new pose
    • delete pose
    • update pose
  • color preferences can be set back to their default settings (see context menu)
  • pose manager now remembers its selection
  • reduced application bundle file size (down from 116 MByte to 80 MByte)
  • disabled UI animation of preferences window
  • fixed crashing bug when closing unsaved scenes (Lion)
  • fixed tabs redraw bug (Lion)
  • fixed auto-keying bug
  • fixed UV edge tweaking bug
  • fixed UV scaling bug
