• Added a operator that convert the old armature/bone setup to the new Giants Exporter way of doing it
• Removed fill volume checker from ui as it doesn't work correctly
• Fixed issue with create material operator when you import an already existing texture it will now use the one that already exist in blender
• Optimized copy orientation to clipboard
• Updated Scene verifier to catch more cases (still just prints the output to the console)

Optimize the motionpath from curves tool

• Implement batch processing to reduce scene updates when creating empties along curves.
• Add a single bpy.context.view_layer.update() call after setting all empties to improve performance.
• Capture and apply transformation matrices to each empty after removing the 'FOLLOW_PATH' constraint for accurate positioning.
• Refine the calculation of empty placement along curves to ensure even distribution based on user-selected motion types (AMOUNT_REL, DISTANCE, AMOUNT_FIX).
• Add performance timing to report the duration of the empties creation process.
• Ensure the script switches to 'OBJECT' mode for compatibility.
• Include error handling for scenarios with no selected curves or incompatible modes.
• Fixed order issue

3.0.0

Huge update!

• Moved to its own category in 3d view --> ui --> I3D Exporter Additionals
• New UI and structure
• Most of the scripts have been updated to function better
• Added a brand new tool for creating effect arrays with multiple curves at the same time (Motion Path From Curves)
• New operator: Verify Scene, currently a bit useless, so avoid it for now

Track Setup:

• Track Setup is the new and better way to create 3d tracks (currently Automatic only works with caterpillar tracks)

User Attributes (Giants I3D Exporter only:

• The user attribute add operator will no longer accept attributes with the same name
• Added delete button for attributes in the panel

Set mirror orientation:

• Cleaned up a lot inside this operator, so hopefully it should function better
