- add operator for applying camera aspect ratio to blender scene.
- add camera aspect ratio preset in virtools camera panel.
- update game camera operators. use virtools camera instead of directly modifying camera properties.
- allow exporting object without apply modifier.
- allow exporting any objects which can be mesh (has geometry).
- due to this change, add virtools mesh properties for metaball, font, curve, surface.
- due to this change, remove the virtools group warning for metaball, font, curve and surface.
- add hint for gray virtools import export button
- add outcome of leaving blank ballance texture folder setting.
- update compile chapter according to the change of build scripts.
- change the shape of all BME floor terminal (normal, sink and wide) from 5x2.5 to 5x5 requested by Zzq and Lee623.
- change icons according to above changes.
- add some comment in prototype files.
- fix the generic error of EnumPropHelper.
- use EnumPropHelper in UTIL_ioport_shared.ExportParams field instead of raw Blender string.
- remove useless type hint in various modules.
- use JSON5 for BME prototype description file instead of JSON to make us have ability that make comment in declaration files (TBD in future).
- upgrade corresponding scripts.
- confirm the finish of upgrading script into modern Python.
- move assets (raw jsons, icons, meshes and i18n data) into the root of repo.
- move script into the root of repo.
- modify blender manifest according to this changes.
- optimize gitignore.
- change the span between checkpoint and resetpoint to prevent paper ball model respawn offset error.
- the span between 4 flames and resetpoint now is 3.65
- the span for 2 flames now is 3.3258
- these data were measured by Lee623 and picked by mode number in all original levels (because there is no uniform number in original levels).
- rename module OP_MTL_fix_all_material to OP_MTL_fix_all_materials.
- rename operator BBP_OT_fix_all_material to BBP_OT_fix_all_materials.
- rename module UTIL_naming_convension to UTIL_naming_convention.
- change some translation contexts to correspond with this change.
- update blender version to 4.5 LTS.
- there is no compatibility issue when porting to blender 4.5.
- bump plugin version up to 4.3 in manifest and document (which has not been updated a while).
- improve BMe extractor with new added classes.
- I have written a half of BME validator, but I gave up now.
* it takes too much time and I don't want to pay more on it. postpone it to next update.
* I annotate all of BMe validator code for future implementation.
* the improvement of BME json files (upgrade them to YAML format) also is postponed.
- change some interface in common.py. synchronize it to other modules using it.
- add translation context for operator, menu, panel and etc. and their associated properties.
- improve some name and description but not finished.
- move reset BME material function inside BMEMaterialsHelper.
- rename variable of collection visitor in BME adder operator for clear meaning.
- replace some message box to report in ballance elements reset operator, BME materials reset operator and rail UV operator
- use list to show bmap encoding settings, instead of user input raw string. it will give a more obvisous interface.
* add bmap encoding setting properties in ptrprop_resolver.
* update ptrprop_resolver for more clear usage.
- following features has not been implemented yet.
* default value for bmap encoding list.
* the bridge function in ioport_shared module (filter empty item in result)
* validate encoding list result when importing and exporting virtools file.
- add TinyMutex to resolve the issue that we can not operate the virtools group infos of 2 individual objects.
* use this new class for all class need resource mutex, such as ballance element, bme materials and etc.
- add CollectionVisitor to resolve that blender have bad document and type hint for runtime bpy.types.CollectionProperty.
* now all visit to CollectionProperty are delegated by this class.
- add a new operator which can converte selected object to mesh, and if object is curve and has bevel object, it will copy the virtools group info of bevel object at the same time.
- add a hint in virtools group panel to tell user that the virtools group of non-mesh object will not be saved.
- move rail creation function into an individual file, UTIL_rail_creator.py
- add flip options for screw rails. this allow user to create any types of screw rail they needed.
- add default rail material when creating rail.
* add Rail material in bme material.
- remove negative screw radius feature when creating curve rail.
* originally negative screw radius will cause normal flip issue when creating.
* however, negative screw radius feature can no fulfill each shapes of screw style. it is more convenient using blender mirror feature after creating screw rail.
* thus I remove this feature, not fix it (I can fix it).

- support light type when exporting virtools.
- both import and export virtools file now support light type. however there is a slight bug about light direction need to be resolved.
- fix bug that exporter throw exception if exported collection contain non-mesh object or exported object is not mesh object.
- fix the usage of BMMeshTrans according to upstream changes.
- fix all `def poll(self)` to `def poll(cls)` to let it fit class method name convention.
- fix wrong progress counter when importing virtools file.
- add light support when importing virtools file.
- add corresponding conflict strategy and resolver for light.
- add virtools light feature for blender light type and add all essential operators, functions and structs.
- remove PyBMap from repository. order builder fetch it on their own.
- update gitignore.
- use panel to organise property group in virtools file importer and exporter.
- move all ballance params and virtools params into ioport_shared module and enable different showcase according to the argument passed to show function presenting whether current window is importer or exporter.
