Introducing: The FSO.Remeshes Official Repository!

https://github.com/riperiperi/FSO.Remeshes

This repository is based off of the remesh package at closure (which BrandonSJ, then Sim handled), though with a bunch of attribution and grouping painstakingly added back in by myself, in the form of both a folder structure (remeshes/<name>/<group>/file.fsom) and metadata files. There's are a few reasons that I've done this...
  • The new project can automatically build a single file remesh package from the GitHub repository, adding to it just needs a Pull Request and approval.
  • FreeSO Archive can download/update the pack file automatically on launch.
  • The packager can make a version that uses GPU texture compression (files with -dxt suffix) which will use much less VRAM, and the single file will extract and load much faster.
    • These new packages can work alongside loose files, but they are preferred over them.
  • The new in-game credits can read the creator/pack metadata from installed remesh packages to populate a section for remesh credits, which lists creators and all the packs they created.
These new ingame credits are working right now! Here's a screenshot of what that looks like:

If there are any issues with remeshes you've created (such as using the wrong version, wrong author/group name, missing files), feel free to message either in the GitHub issues, here or in Discord and I'll get it fixed ASAP.

On another note, thanks for all the hard work over the years! Going through each and every file really put into perspective how much work was done making FreeSO look as great as it does.
