Isometric 8-direction sprite export (#724)

Headless isometric sprite atlases for game pipelines — rows are compass directions, columns are animation frames.

• qtmesh isometric — export static or animated sprite sheets from FBX/glTF/OBJ and other supported formats.
• MCP generate_isometric_sprites — same workflow for agents (file-in / file-out, optional JSON report).
• Framing controls — --resolution (square cell size), --camera-distance (fixed orbit), --padding (auto-fit multiplier), --elevation, --start-azimuth.
• Animation sampling — --animation "Walk" --frames 8 evenly samples clip length; entity is matched by clip name in multi-mesh assets.
• Safety — atlas caps (4096 cells / 16384 px per side), transform restore after capture recenter, file.export Sentry breadcrumbs.

Examples

qtmesh isometric character.fbx -o iso.png
qtmesh isometric character.fbx --resolution 256 -o iso.png
qtmesh isometric character.fbx --animation "Jump" --frames 8 -o iso_anim.png
qtmesh isometric character.fbx -o iso.png --padding 1.5 --camera-distance 5

Auto-updater MVP (#439)

Portable installs can check, download, verify, install, and restart in-app.

• Windows portable zip and macOS .dmg — full end-to-end flow with minisign/Ed25519 verification (including Windows MinGW libsodium, #445 / PR #740).
• Background update check on startup for portable installs, 24h rate limit, --no-update-check opt-out (#450, PR #737).
• Updater dialog + preferences — stable channel, progress, changelog, package-manager hints for Homebrew/WinGet/apt/snap (#443, #449, PR #731).
• Download + verify — resumable worker-thread downloads, SHA256SUMS + .minisig sidecars (#444–445, PR #733).
• Install + relauncher — atomic swap on macOS, side-by-side staging on Windows, shell relauncher on Linux portable trees (#446–447, PR #735).
• Telemetry funnel — privacy-filtered Sentry breadcrumbs (updater.*, #451, PR #737).
• Package builds — .deb, Snap, and Docker images ship with ENABLE_AUTO_UPDATER=OFF; Help → Check for Updates hidden (#439, PR #739).
• CI signing — release artifacts signed with minisign; SHA256SUMS + .minisig uploaded on publish.

Not in this release: Linux portable tarball/AppImage on GitHub Releases (#448), beta/nightly channels (#452), delta updates (#453). Linux users should continue using apt/snap/docker for updates.

AI mesh-aware textures (#403)

• Material Editor — depth-conditioned texture generation (ControlNet when stable-diffusion is enabled).
• Multi-view bake — front+back projection onto UV0 with seed lock, color matching, and seam feathering (PR #729, #732).
• CLI — qtmesh material <file> --generate-texture "<prompt>" for headless mesh-aware textures (PR #736).
• Stability — embedded-texture preview fixes and safer rapid texture switching (PR #734).

QtMesh Cloud upload (#684)

Package editor assets and upload them to QtMesh Cloud from the GUI, CLI, and MCP.

• Editor — File → Upload to QtMesh Cloud, cloud account menu, project picker, dependency-aware packaging, optional pre-upload scan, upload progress in the status bar.
• CLI — qtmesh cloud login|logout|status|list|upload|delete with --cli / editor-binary support.
• MCP — cloud_status, cloud_login, cloud_logout, cloud_list_projects, cloud_delete_project, cloud_upload (headless-safe; isolated subprocess scan).
• Packaging — DependencyResolver + ProjectPackager discover sidecar files, sanitise manifest paths, and SHA-256 hash payloads.

macOS fixes (#718)

• Fewer repeated Keychain prompts; session persistence and texture apply fixes; mesh-aware texture generation stability on macOS.

Mesh-aware texture generation (#717)

• Depth-conditioned texture generation in the Material Editor (ControlNet path when stable-diffusion is enabled).

Snap startup fix (Linux)

Fixes libsecret-1.so.0 missing when launching the Snap (qtmesheditor).

• Snap: added libsecret-1-0 to stage-packages.
• Other platforms unchanged.

After updating: sudo snap refresh qtmesheditor

OS file associations (#664)

Open 3D assets directly from the OS without launching QtMeshEditor first.

• macOS — CFBundleDocumentTypes in the app bundle; Homebrew cask postflight runs lsregister so Finder picks up handlers after install.
• Windows — Inno Setup installer registers per-user Open with handlers (OpenWithProgids); portable ZIP includes scripts/register-windows-file-associations.ps1. WinGet manifest lists supported extensions.
• Linux — .desktop + shared MIME XML in the .deb; Snap desktop updated with MimeType and %F.
• App — AppLaunchHandler single-instance server, macOS QFileOpenEvent, and MainWindow::openLaunchFiles() for CLI/GUI file paths.

Supported extensions: .fbx, .glb, .gltf, .obj, .dae, .stl, .ply, .mesh, .rsd, .tmd (plus scene formats on macOS).

Platform validation profiles

• Bundled profiles — Retro (PS1, N64, NDS, Dreamcast) and modern (Modern Console, Switch-class, Steam Deck, Mobile Low-end, WebGL/WebGPU, VR) JSON presets with triangle, material, texture, bone, and animation budgets.
• CLI — qtmesh scan --target <id>, --profile <id>, and --list-profiles; set profile: in qtmesh.yml.
• GUI — Validation mode → Asset Folder Scan with platform profile picker (default: Modern Console), folder browse, and inline results.
• Budget rules — Triangle/mesh counts, draw calls, texture dimensions, ACMR, redundant keyframes, zero-weight bones, and related scan rules wired through profiles and ScanEngine.

Documentation

• Website — New Platform Profiles docs page with profile table, CLI/GUI usage, and examples.

3.4.1

In-app feedback (#701)

• Send Feedback — Help menu and QtMesh Cloud account menu open an authenticated feedback dialog (POST /v1/feedback) with type, optional rating, message, diagnostics opt-in, and contact permission.
• Report Problem… — Import/export failure dialogs offer one-click feedback with pre-filled context (operation, format, error).
• Preferences — Diagnostics and contact checkboxes default on and persist in QSettings.
• Offline fallback — If send fails, the dialog keeps your text and offers Copy Message or Open Website (https://qtmesh.dev/#/feedback).

Fixes

• Docker / Linux package — Add libsecret-1-0 runtime dependency so cloud credential storage works in the published Docker image and .deb (fixes docker-publish ldd check for libsecret-1.so.0 on 3.4.0).

3.4.0

QtMesh Cloud

• Account toolbar control — QtMesh Cloud sign-in, projects, upload, and sign-out live in a VS Code-style CloudAccountMenuButton at the bottom of the left objects toolbar (avatar/initials, online/offline badge, structured popup menu). (#700, #709)
• Device sign-in — OAuth-style device authorization polls while the dialog stays open, so approving on the website with a copied code works without clicking Open Browser. (#709)
• Cloud file uploads — Authenticated upload flow from the editor to QtMesh Cloud. (#695, #698)
• Device auth client — Foundation for browserless / copy-code sign-in. (#696)

Modeling & rigging

• Inverse-distance auto skin weights — New weighting mode for automatic skin binding (closes #402). (#699)
• Quad retopology — Triangle-pairing quad retopo tool (closes #401). (#697)
• xatlas auto UV unwrap — Automatic UV unwrapping (closes #400). (#694)

Version & quality

• Version bumped to 3.4.0 in CMakeLists.txt; doc/action pins synced via sync-doc-versions-from-cmake.sh.
• Unit tests for CloudAccountMenuButton and CloudCredentialStore (isolated test storage, no OS keychain in CI).
• Sentry ui.action breadcrumbs on cloud toolbar and sign-in dialog actions.

3.3.1

Fixes

• GUI File → Export Selected no longer crashes on Ogre .mesh or any Assimp-backed format (glTF, GLB, OBJ, Collada, STL, PLY, 3DS, X, Assimp Binary). Root cause: Ogre::Texture::convertToImage() SIGSEGV-ing when a material's TUS referenced a texture that wasn't GPU-resident — null _getTexturePtr, isLoaded() == false, or zero-size from a placeholder TUS. The exporter now guards every code path through isTextureSerializable() before calling convertToImage, and wraps the save in a catch-all so one bad texture can't take down the whole export. (#693)
• Render + animation timers paused during File → Export Selected. The QFileDialog opens a nested event loop, and queued timer callbacks were firing inside the dialog AND mid-export — MainWindow::m_pTimer calling renderOneFrame() while the serializer walked the mesh, plus AnimationControlController::m_pollTimer advancing the SkeletonInstance's time position. Both could mutate buffers under the serializer's feet. New AnimationControlController::suspendPollTimer/resumePollTimer API; both timers paused around the entire export action. (#693)
• Texture export refactor. exportTextures split into three single-purpose helpers — isTextureSerializable, saveTextureAsImage, forEachNamedTexture — to drop cognitive complexity from 49 to <10 and remove the nested 4-deep control flow that SonarCloud flagged. Behavior unchanged; one bad texture still gets logged via Ogre::LogManager and the rest of the export continues. (#693)

Quality

• MeshImporterExporter::exporter(node) now accepts an optional QWidget* parent so the file dialog anchors to MainWindow instead of nullptr on macOS — cleaner modal cycle, matches every other dialog in the app.
• sync-doc-versions-from-cmake.sh learned to keep image-tag: "X.Y.Z" pins in sync with the CMake project version. Earlier bumps left those stale because the script only touched action refs. Backtick-wrapped inline examples are excluded via lookarounds so doc snippets stay intact.

Internal cleanup since 3.3.0

• PS1 Geometry Inspector + Extracted Asset Browser (#426)
• PS1 capture controls — Frame / Scene / VRAM / Stop (#425)
• meshoptimizer-backed LOD generator (--algo meshopt, default ogre) (#398)
• Mesh-optimization pipeline driven from the Inspector validation flow — vertex cache + overdraw passes, threshold-gated to skip when not worth it (#399)
• Scan-pipeline platform profiles via JSON config + --target alias (#362, #363)
