Avatar Toolkit Overhaul - Do not merge yet #81
base: main
Are you sure you want to change the base?
Conversation
- Re-wrote how the plugin registers itself. - No longer need @register_wrapper classes get auto detected and added. - The new Auto loader is much better then the old way, no longer need "if "bpy" not in locals():" this was an old way of doing things and wasn't really efficient. using auto_load.py provides several advantages: - It automatically discovers and loads all modules in the addon. - It handles dependencies between classes correctly through topological sorting. - It manages registration order automatically. - It properly handles unregistration in the correct order. This approach is much less error prone and I not had any issues so far. However it still needs testing fully. I have also start to re-organise files into folders as well, this is going to be needed so we don't have a long list of files as Avatar Toolkit is getting larger then i originally planned.
I decided to go through each function and UI section one by one, improving and overhauling things. Each function and section is going to be fully tested and not rushed out. This is the best way to catch things, but also include the code base as much as possible.

This is the best way to catch things, but also include the code base as much as possible. This mean most functions have been removed unto I go through them, there will be added back slowly. I truly want the overhaul to be the best the toolkit can offer so we can finally get the Alpha out. The plan is as I stated before that this overhaul will end up being the first Alpha. |
Pose mode Improvements: Batch processing for all mesh operations Numpy-powered vertex array handling Optimized modifier stack management Smart shape key processing Enhanced progress tracking The armature validation system improvements: Essential bones (hips, spine, chest, neck, head) Proper bone hierarchy validation Symmetry pair verification (e.g., arm.l/arm.r)
I'm have started an overhaul of Avatar Toolkit to enhance stability, maintainability, and organization. Once this PR has been merge it should mean the first Alpha release can happen. Therefor please do not merge unto I have gotten everything done.
Key Improvements so far:
Plugin Registration System:
New Auto-loader Implementation
File Structure Reorganization
There are more changes, and more changes needed to get all the functions working again seeing I basically changed a core component so late on, but it's looking better then before.
Initial implementation shows promising results, but testing is still in progress.
