Great sculpting as always, real pleasure to watch you outline facial muscles 5:10.

Is this branch(although rich in new options) is waay slower or is it just me?

Anyway, It kinda pains me that I have to download n number of blender versions to get functionality I want(especially if in the end of the day I'm not sure which does what):P

@AntiCookieMonster Thanks :)

It felt slower for me too, I try to find a solution changing options during the video, there's reports on the BA thread about faster and slower behaviour, I guess we'll just have to wait a bit.

I got a builds folder that's always increasing, development of 2.5 has made it difficult to add a lot of stuff to trunk.

But things are going faster now, and the way they're approaching GSOC development this year will make integration easier. :)

Hey, what's onion branch? Does it have something to do with matcaps?

[thisroomthatIkeep]

@MartianStories It's one of the GSOC 2011 branches, dedicated to sculpting, which includes the matcap mode from 2010

Just noticed that the onion branch has the matcap built , ive been having to set this up manual for quite a while,it will be a great time saver ;)
