I have done a lot of work on JSculpt, a 3D Modeling software written in Java that I’m developing.

Annotations

Selected items in the scene tree are now highlighted in the 3d viewports with annotations. These will help the script developer to better understand the underlying structure of his objects.

I will try to implement more annotations types, to make the viewports as instructive as possible about object data.

Complete Boolean Operations

Objects may now be combined using all kind of complex structures of unions, intersections, merges and differences. For instance this cube whose centers were extruded by difference operations.

This may look trivial, but generating optimal meshes for these operations is really a challenge. I still have a few issues to solve, but it is functional in the latest SVN version.

A new guitar arrangement is available. This tune comes from the soundtrack of Final Fantasy XII. It can be heard during the opening titles. I think that it is featured in other episodes of the series as well, but can’t say which ones for sure.

I did credit Nobuo Uematsu as the original composer, but I’m not sure either that it’s him who wrote this piece initially. Since he did most of the classic episodes soundtrack, I would guess that it’s one of his compositions.

It is available for solo acoustic guitar, as tablature and standard notation.

Get it from the guitar arrangements page.
