I've been evaluating DeleD in order to have my team switch to it versus some other editors and there's a few things that would probably settle it for me.

The first is the ability to nest the material picker over on the right side with the Create/Edit and Scene Tabs. If it was included there so that I could have easy access to it and have more room for the viewport, I would be a very happy critter.

Secondly, the ability to assign bump maps to a texture would be fantastic, even if it's only for a Torque Exporter Plugin for the materials.cs generator, it would be a lot better than what we are working with now.

I've have been asking for this forever. Laughing

You can pull the material picker out from being docked in the side and have it as a free floating wnidow which you can call up with CTRL-M whenever you need it, but the program still refuses to remember that it's undocked, and the size you set it at.

At one point during the 1.4 beta, this was said to be added as a feature, but it never happened.

I hope 1.6 is slated to come out soon, our project is in full swing and I really need to get a better map editor then what we are currently using, and we're slated to go into production in Januray

As more people have requested a floating system lately, we have boosted the priority of that request. As of 1.53, DeleD will have 4 floating windows: Create/Edit, Scene Inspector, Object Inspector and Material Picker. They can be docked on the left and right sides of the screen. In addition, the Material Picker can be docked on the bottom too. All 4 windows can be hiden/shown by shortcuts. Here's some WIP:

All 4 windows docked on the right side

2 on the left, 2 on the right

1 on the left, 2 on the right, 1 at the bottom

4 floating windows

Available in version 1.53. Smile

Oh wow, having the materials at the bottom looks like a much better place than the side.

Very nice, but most importantly, will this thing save, or do we have to start each setting moving everything how we want it?
