What's new in this version:
One of the most important differences between this new version and the old one, is the usage of the rectangular plugin. Now you have to click and drag, as you do when you use the anlgled rectangle tool, to place the object.
Another improvement is the faculty to put rises on three sides of the object.
The sinks now can be also oval. The 3D shape is now obtained by nurbs and it is smoother than before.
Also, sinks are moveable by a simple mouse click and drag.
Faucets can be offsetted / angled.
Top drain is a new tool.
Cells plugin has been revised and so are doors, sliding unit and drawers (this is a new enter). They can have customizable handles / knobs.
A word apart is worthwhile for the new, powerful bottle_raw plugin. With this instrument you can place rows of liquor bottles / cans / beers / mini bottles on your bar backcounter shelves.
