Yeah, I ended up developing a methodology to deal with vertex snap.

Actually I also dicovered that there’s control point snapping too. Little hard to find and match’em, but it works ok! 😛

Oh, and for a future, a snap to edge function would be awesome too. As sometimes I need to create useless vertices on edges just to be able to align other polygon perfectly.

That does not depend on us, but on Oculus to provide a display driver that works with openGL. We’ll post more info shortly.

Thanx for your answer. And how long do you estimate it will take? 1 week? 1 month?
Thanx…

At some point we may have polygon operations, but for now your best bet is to snap vertices.

No. DK2 support has not shipped yet.

When DK2 support does ship, I promise you, we will not keep it a secret.

Is there any plans for WED to support merging polygons?

It would be very usefull when trying to go a little further in terms of detail and precision (i.e.: when you want edges of a new poly to match perfectly another edges of previously made, and separate, polygons).

Cheers.

Im really looking forward to it!!! You guys need to get it out. Everyone with a DK2 will get Xplane for sure. I already tried Outerra with the DK2 and its an awesome experience. Even if its a beta and the switches can’t be touched it will still be worthy.

Thanks Ben for your answer. And thanks for that simulator, I love it!

No. As I have said before, we are not running the public beta process over steam. Doing so would double the development time of pushing beta builds.

(Note: a work-around for steam users: install an X-Plane demo as a second copy of X-Plane. Update the demo to the beta program. Steam won’t take the demo out of demo mode, but a huge percentage of the bugs we see reported in the beta are easily reproduced within the demo region and demo time limit.)

Could be awesome to be able to do that. Honesty, I paid the same amount as regular user, and the only reason why i picked steam version was because didn’t wanted to wait for dvd delivery
Cheers
