Hello,
It is Gérald who has come a long way.
A big problem with one eye made it impossible for me to use the computer.
I had complex retinal detachment which required silicone to be inserted into the eye for several months.
It limited my use of the computer to a few minutes.
Throughout this time, I wasn't sure if I could go back to writing VWD.
In short, now, even if everything is not perfect, I want to resume this project.
This expectation also made me think about what I want to do in 3D.
It also means that the future of VWD could be different.
This project depends a little on me but mostly depends on you.
Without your interest in the program, it will have no future.
The choice I made at the start of the project was probably not the right one.
I now think the program itself should focus on the calculation.
The new program will also have functions for creating and modifying clothes and hair.
The problem with the old VWD is that I tried to make it simulate elements whose mesh was not suitable for simulation at all.
This discredited VWD because there were many crashes that weren't necessarily related to the program itself.
The other problem of the program was to have to communicate with several applications which evolved regularly.
A better solution would have been to concentrate on the calculation part inside VWD and to develop independent gateways to communicate with other applications.
This solution would also have had the advantage of communicating with new applications without complicating the program itself.
To get started on this new project, I need to know what interest you might have in it.
Please tell me your opinion on this message. Thanks in advance.
Gerald
