Thanks Andrei

All those keyboard shortcuts are very useful. It is the fastest way to work once you become familiar with the program.

My only comment would be that the commands in Grow/Shrink selection are bit long. It is something you use often when poly modelling. All the other keyboard shortcuts are beautifully done being nice and short.

kevjon,
They looks long but when you are press them they are short and your fingers will remember them in seconds, I use them for a long time. Try them and if you will feel that it is too long after working with them, let me know, I'll think what I can change.

Thanks Andrei,
Excellent config!
Looking forward to the videos :)

The inset tool is tricky to use. If you push you mouse the wrong way (out instead of in) you end up with an extra polygon.

The tool tips on all your buttons are extremely helpful to learn the software.

kevjon,
It is how it should be. If you drag it to the left it will Inset Outside, if you drag it to the right it will Inset inside. There a re a lot of situation where you need to make Outside Inset.
I modified Tool Tip of Inset.

Samardac Config 1.2 is available for download.

Updates:
Was simplified Grow/Shrink shortcuts:

1. Grow/Shrink Selection (Tab+MW)
2. Grow/Shrink Loop (Tab+Ctrl+MW)
3. Grow/Shrink Loop (Tab+Shift+MW)

4. Undo/Redo Multi - (Ctrl+Z+MW)

Some Tool Tips was Updated.

Ok thanks Andrei

I was a bit confused which way you push the tool on screen to get the desired result.

Thanks for the updated config, will give that try.

NVil against Wings3D ? (not the the price because it's free but for the functions )
http://www.wings3d.com/
and principally this incredible version? ManifoldLab (Wings3D is inside MLAB)

I used Wings 3D a long time ago and it was far behind NVil, do not know how it is now.

This ManifoldLab is some funny! ;)
a little try :)

Thanks Andrei, your NVil config and bridge are excellent!

SAMARDAC NVil Config 1.3

NVil version no less then NVil-Mar-14-15 is needed.
Download it here: http://www.digitalfossils.com/Download/NVil-Mar-14-15.rar

UPDATES:

StreamLine:
"Draw" (4) tool was added.
It crates polygons by drawing vertexes, also you can create just vertexes or add vertexes to edges(just go over edge and it will snap to it, then add vertex). You can draw on grid, Work Plane or Objects.

"Move" (W) Now if you move one vertex to another and hit (W) again it will weld them.

Snap:
Snap to Spline button was added
Snap to Plane button was added

Workplane:
lock Work Plane button was added

Some commands was Improved.
Added button - From Edge (Create spline from selected edges)

Other:

Part one of Modeling tutorials in Samardac Config:

Andrei -

Thank you for taking time to make the video tutorial. Tonight I'll try making a spoon :)

Hopefully in future tutorials you'll bring a NVil model into Moi for some precision enhancements.

MoI will remain my primary program as I make mostly mechanical items. But there are situations where I need objects of an organic nature.

The fact that you can go back and forth between NVil and MoI creates some new possibilities.

Ed Ferguson

No Problem Ed, I'll made tutorial about NVil and MoI but I think not now)

Anyway, here is another portion of tutorials:

Cool stuff Andrei! Very much appreciate your work.
