Hey guys, look! After playing Quake Brutalism Jam 3, I decided to open up TrenchBroom and see what Quake level editing is like these days. This is way more intuitive than the old days with Hammer and Qed. I made a little brutalist buttress element! (Thanks to @makkon.bsky.social for the textures!)

I've been knee deep into TrenchBroom, will probably post an annoying amount about how fun and simple the tool is once you get it up and running to be used in unity. its just great being able to block out a map in like 30 mins. I will get back to modeling characters soon! #indiedev #gamedev

We fixed the assimp importer so that it displays models with the correct orientation. For example, gltf models were rotated by 90 degrees about the Z axis. If your custom toolchain compensated for this, you may need to adapt it now.

Being able to transform individual vertices of a brush using the rotate and scale tools is an often requested feature, so I have opened github.com/TrenchBroom/... for it. You can help out by downloading a build from github.com/TrenchBroom/..., testing it and giving some feedback in the PR comments.
