Nothing-is-3D

(Software used: Blender 2.81)

( version française disponible)

Let me introduce you to ReTiCo, an addon I've started (wow!) 3 years ago. It was already publicy available but not enough mature to communicate about it, until now:

https://github.com/Vinc3r/ReTiCo

It's oriented realtime workflow but some feature may be interesting for everyone as well.

Here a non-exhaustive-list of features, check the doc' to know more:

Materials:

• quick set backface culling on/off
• set active texture node (useful in viewport Solid > Texture mode)
• mute textures (materials have to use glTF convention), very useful for texture baking
• detect & fix wrong texture nodes colorspace, and also check if UV chans sets on some nodes actually uses mesh UV names
• reports can help to clean the scene

Meshes

• transfer names from Object to Mesh
• easily set the same autosmooth on objects
• copy names to clipboard can be helpful once in your 3D engine, to select specific meshes

UVs:

• easily switch active UV chan
• rename your channels using UVMap, UV2, UV3, etc pattern
• quick apply a box mapping

It's probably a "niche" addon, but I hope it can be useful for some people.

PS: realtime artists may also be interested by my other addon, Polycount.
