Features request

Hi,

Some features request:

Object editor:
1) Clone objects using some rules ( to put the copies on a circle, on a axe, ...) (like "array" in 3DS Max if i remember well). Very usfull for the copy of a lot of mesh.
2) Add attributes to materials, cubes and to a lot of things of anim8or.
3) Use a face of a mesh as a plan of mirror.
4) Displacement from textures

Scene editor:
5) copy/ past of elements (to avoid Build->Add ... menu).
6) scale with value like in the object editor ( scale 0.3 , ...)
7) ortho camera (usefull for creating textures)
8) Clone objects using some rules ( like for object "1)" )

9) Lightmapping texture (+uv) generator ( maybe just a dream)

3D Joe Wiltshire:
one feature i'd like to see, is the ability to copy and paste an object in scene mode, it's really quite annoying when i have to resize an object that is needed multiple times in the scene, i have to resize them all seperately once they're added

or is this already in there? am i missing something?

lawrence:
You can copy and paste scene elements by opening the an8 file in a text editor and copy/pasting the elements you want (remembering to change their names). It's a bit of a long-cut but it's faster if you want lots of  elements with the same settings.

hihosilver:
texel, you can use displacement maps already with Terranim8or.

texel:
Terranim8or is a great program but it would be better to avoid the use of thousands of external programs or scripts.
