[b][color=#BF40FF]TileFlipRot Branch Merged into Master[/b][/color]

Tile flipping and rotation was my very first feature to be implemented using our new "feature branching" scheme. This was ideal, because it required a gigantic amount of rewriting that both broke the build for an extended period of time and resulted in stability issues. Luckily, GIT's branching mechanism allowed me to do this in my own ESTk1.5 sandbox while we stabilized and released ESTk1.5.1 out of the master branch. Once I had completed the feature and was sure that it was stable, I was able to merge TileFlipRot with master, adding tile flip and rotation to ESTk1.5.2. Now that I am no longer the only person coding my ass off, this branching mechanism will become invaluable.

[quote="pritam"]Edit: I re-cloned the toolkit repo and with exception to lack of viewport repaint on xp, the absence of the freeze feature is glorious![/quote]WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELL!!!!

You weren't supposed to know about that new feature yet. ;)

Well, since people are pulling down Jarrod and my "extremely optimized beta-as-shit edition," I had better start talking about it. :lol:

I made a mailbox to get a good start on the day, cut up the roof rendering and tested it. It's the cave sheet all over again.

With all these crazy angles there has to be a lot more tiles for just the roof and it's not worth it so I'm abandoning this idea for the standard 45degree approach.
