    What type of bugs should we be looking for,
    and what is expected to work in general as of now?

    As first-time Blender 2.50 tester, I am not unimpressed. Absolutely gorgeous.

    @anon: already read it,
    before it was even posted to bn,
    kinda leaves to be desired… :)

    thanks

    @MeshWeaver: It allows you to create a face from a polygon with more than four verticies.

    Very unstable. At least on win xp.

    You should change the title. Bmesh is not just ngon support, as the creator tries so hard to explain.

  14. 14 MeshWeaver Nov 7th, 2009 at 12:47 am

    @EagleWing: oh. pretty cool. :-D

    @f9b: how about Vista?

  15. 15 b-fighter Nov 7th, 2009 at 2:00 am

    when tied with multires modifier, it will be dream tool, at least for me :-)
    can't wait!

    @f9b
    you know what "testing build" means, right?

    @MeshWeaver
    For a video explanation of Bmesh, check out the following:

    This was all it took to convince me that this will be a wonderful feature.
