[Soc-2017-dev] Weekly Report #06 - Silhouette Operator

  *Weekly Report #06 - Silhouette Operator*

*

In this week I went over the whole code and restructured and cleaned up 
most of it. 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.

In the next week I will rewrite big portions of the tool. 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.


For future reference i pushed the last working version to the branch 
before deleting big parts of the code. As I have mentioned above, it 
might not build.

If you can not build but still want to get an idea of the development 
stage, I have created a gif as a small demonstration (!5.5mb):

Have a nice Weekend,
