Mesh Paint v0.95
Updated September 2012 with straight/curved line drawing. Mesh Paint lets you paint
meshes or mesh instances interactively on the surface of another mesh. Not only for
placing rows of bolts but with every thinkable placement option like follow stroke,
stack clones, adjustable spacing, delete overlapping, alignment, randomization, size
falloff and mouse position interpolation (for evenly-spaced placement even when painting
quickly).
To-be-placed objects are organized in a list with the option of randomizing though the list, or cycling through the list while painting. There's also a »drop« mode for placing indivdual objects more precisely (like a simpler version of Piotrek's QuickPrimive tool).
For more information, visit the si-community thread linked below. Videos available: Introduction, and added features in v0.91 & v0.93. The roses in the thumbnail have been created with a combination of follow stroke/stack clones/ramp scale, moving the mouse around in little circles. For regular spaced placement like the zipper in the thumbnail, turn off the »delete overlapping« option. Source code available here (Check the thread for a newer version of this, too).

Re: mesh paint
This is what Soft needed for a long time - it looks like the interactive tool SDK was a huge move.
Great stuff!

Re: mesh paint
Gotta chime in to. This would mean one less thing that I need Modo for. It has a mesh paint that I use all the time to put rivets (mostly) on the skin of planes that I've built. I normally put all of them on a separate layer that can be toggled on and off depending on the shot. Its been a life saver for lining them up on a complex curved surface.
I don't have time to beta for you but would certainly love a crack at it later.

It may be useful in affairs.
I really want to beta- test.
Thank you.

Re: mesh paint
Thanks! Does that mean "never get finished" or "just not right now"? ;)
