Planes you place yourself. A Plane button beside Sketch, so "which plane?" is no longer answered only by Top, Front, Right or a face that already exists.

Build one off a global plane, off a face of a part, or off another plane, then push it along its normal with Offset and lean it over with Angle.

Drag a plane instead of typing its offset: an arrow stands on it, and everything drawn on the plane follows as it slides.

A plane built from a face rides that face -- make the part taller and the plane moves up with it.

Planes stack, so three ribs ten apart are each "ten further on" -- change the bottom one and the rest follow.

Sketch on one the way you sketch on anything else: press Sketch, click the plane.

Planes are drawn in the viewport with their names beside them, and each has an eye in the feature tree.

Paint is a texture now, not vertex colour. A stroke goes into a 1024x1024 canvas, so a bare box paints at brush resolution with no Subdivide first.

A painted part exports its own material. Compile .vmdl writes the canvas to a PNG, wraps it in a .vmat and binds it to the part.

Entering Paint on a part whose UVs will not hold paint inserts a UV Project above it automatically, and says so. It undoes with one Ctrl+Z like any feature.

A material brush. Press Material in the Paint workspace and drag on the model to lay a material onto faces instead of picking them one at a time.

The brush uses whatever is selected in the Materials browser, so you can brush one on, click another and keep going without leaving the model.

It outlines the faces it is about to take, because a material belongs to a whole face: on a coarse box a small ring still paints an entire side.

Bones can be placed inside a model, not just on its skin. Middle is the default: a click puts the joint halfway through the material under the cursor.

So a spine runs down the middle of a chest instead of down the front of it, which is where a joint has to be for the weights around it to make sense.

While placing, the run of material being measured is drawn with its thickness, so you see where the joint will land before you click.

A Y=0 toggle forces every placed joint exactly onto the mirror plane, so a chain placed with it on mirrors cleanly.

A Falloff dropdown on the sculpt bar: Smooth for a soft mound, Sharp for a hard crease, Linear for an even fade, Constant to move the whole disc at once.

Hold Ctrl while sculpting to invert the brush -- Draw carves in, Inflate deflates, Grab drags the opposite way. The ring turns red so you can see it before you click.

Sculpting hotkeys: 1-6 arm the six brushes, X mirrors, M masks, and [ and ] shrink and grow the brush.

Rebind any Effigy key. Settings has a Hotkeys section listing every key the tool registers -- click one, press the new key, and it takes effect immediately.

Rebinds live in the engine's own shortcut store, so a change here also shows up in the editor's Editor Keybinds page, and the other way round.

A UV checker view toggle, in Settings under View. Stretching and seams show on the surface instead of waiting for a paint or a bake to smudge them.

An unwrap now says what it did -- how many charts, how many faces, and the texel density -- and warns when the result still will not hold a bake.
