I came to the conclusion that i need to rewrite a big portion of it. Some old methods are prone to errors and overly complex. In addition to that I wasn’t aware that my branch doesn’t build on other systems due to misused arrays on the stack.</span></p>

My goals are a unified interpolation method to calculate smoothing and sharp edges. I will reshuffle and simplify the vertex order and edge/loop/poly generation. If everything goes according to plan I am expecting a more robust system. </span></p>

As I have mentioned above, it might not build. </span></p>
