Just wondering what version VWD is at?

I know last time a new version was released, I was missed in the email; the reason I ask, is that I've seen a couple of posts discuss features I don't appear to have.

I'm currently on: 1.0.408.2976

That is the most current one in the file library here. I think the next version has been given to a few people for troubleshooting and documentation purposes. Last update took a while to get posted after it was submitted.

The new version will be uploadable in some days. The new version has been tested by WimVDB and some others persons. This version has new functions and less bugs. It will contains the new documentation written by WimVWD. I just ask you a bit of patience.

Just a suggestion but it would be helpful if the latest version number/date could be posted here and updated each time a new version becomes available. That goes for any Bridge versions too.

Thanks.

@marble : You suggest me to give VWD and the Bridges to all the persons registred in Renderosity. Many persons will thank you for that ;-).

I don't understand what you are saying. When did I suggest giving anyone anything? My suggestion was only about **version numbers ** so that we can be sure that we have the latest version.

Excuse me marble, it was a translation error. You are right. I need to be more precise on the version number. I will include it, perhaps in the makerplace. This will ensure what is the current version.

Thanks - I understand about the translation. No problem.

Happy that you can include the version numbers, that will be a help.

I'm really looking forward to a new version. Love this product!

Could someone please confirm that I have the latest version of the DAZ Studio Bridge?

Thank you.

I'm not seeing an update since September in my products list for the Daz Studio Bridge plugin.

Trouble is, from what I can see, these versions are not dated so I have no idea when this version was released.

Very exciting!!!!

Can't wait to see what new features you will have in store for us. :)

Will this new version integrate using the GPU? I am sure I read this being discussed somewhere, promising a faster program. Or perhaps I imagined it.

I just receive the new version of VWD. I must say thanks to Gerald and WimVDB for the updated manual!!! It is a major improvement, the english is very understandable and the tutorials are excellent. Chapter 12 Fundamentals also does a great job explaining the basics and providing good visual examples of how different values affect the simulation result. I'm more excited by the manual than any of the new features :)

I do wish to point out that some pictures in the manual are very dark... because the background of the page is white, then when the picture on the page is dark (for example, the inflate example using C19 Jeans) the high contrast of the white page background with the dark picture makes it even harder to see the contents of the picture. I could not even see the buttons of the jeans in the second photo unless I look very very closely to the screen.

I just sent a mail to Jenn to ask her to make the updates for the normal and lite versions.

I also added a new freestuff corresponding to this new version in demo mode.

This version is the V1.1.502.3552.

About the manual, it has been fully written by WimVDB, I only gave him some informations explaining the program.

I just schedule a sale to celebrate the new version.

That's good news; hoping i receive it soon, as I bought it from VWD directly. :)

@Writers_Block : I sent you a sitemail.

@Writers_Block : I sent you a sitemail.

Thanks Gerard, I replied.

I'm confused, how does one get the latest version? What's in my account is the same version I've had for some time.

If you bought it from rendo, once they have released it.

I can't wait for its release! I'm checking Rendo every chance I get. The Manual sounds especially interesting!

The two versions (Full and Lite) have been released.

beautiful! (got the new manual in the freebies demo, eagerly waiting for the 'real' rendo-release)

FWIW, The new version is in my downloads (VWDClothAndHair+V1.1.502.3552_202764.zip) but not properly dated/marked as an update! (still dated 2016-08-19)!!!!

Opening that zipfile shows updated files and manuals dated 2017-02-22 (last week!).

Off to play with my new toy and the phenomenal new manual - Great job Wim! and again, Thanks Gerald for an amazing tool!

cheers!

Is it normal that the 'About' shows the older version still? I THINK I updated it right...

Edit: Nevermind, it's clearly a better version; no need to do 'host list' each time, preservation of Iray surfaces. Yay!

FWIW, It looks like Gerald produced a bug fix update on April 13 or so. I didn't get a notice from rendo, but it's in my account uploads as:

VWDClothAndHair+V1.1.518.3626_205017.zip

and the two key executables have newer dates - I saw a reference to the fix in the VWD 'Shift Key' forum discussion.

Thanks Gerald!

I made an error when I generated the EXE file. I wrote 1.0..... and not 1.1..... For me, this version is a test version. Please tell me if is suits you about the Shift Key. I will do a tutorial to explain the new function in the Utilities tab.

Can you "Sticky" this thread? It's very important.

Hello Gerald,

I didn't receive any message for the new version I'm still on V1.0.494.3523. I remember that I'm not the only one.

Thanks!

Hello Stef,

you are right. Excuse me, you and all the direct buyers. I want to send a new version to Renderosity with all the latest corrections and I will send this version also to everyone, this week.

Forgive me for this forgetfulness.

 Gérald

No problem and thanks for your support, I'll wait for the next version.

Are you sending out the new version with promised GPU support?

@dzonatan : No, I am sorry. Currently, I have no time to work on the GPU version. I certainly will create a thread when this version will be really in progress.

I just sent to Jenn the Lite and the Full version. Tomorrow, I will send this new version to all the direct buyers. I update the demo version as well.

Thanks Gerald! I received the new version
