'''Project Title:''' Mesh Editor

'''Student:''' Samah Majadla

'''Mentor:''' 

'''Abstract:'''

The final product of this project would be a GUI tool that would allow a user to edit meshes interactively within PySoy. PySoy is a 3D cloud game engine that has been developed for Python. While users can currently create and edit meshes, they can only do so by using the interactive Python prompt; having a user interface to work with would make using PySoy to edit meshes much simpler.

'''Timeline:'''

''April 20 – May 22''

I would like to start getting more familiar with PySoy, as well as with Genie. Create and edit a couple of meshes, and map out how they would best be translated into a GUI tool.  

''May 23 – June 6''

Layout the basic user interface. 
Tools that I would like to start implementing: 
- Create mesh (with different options: cube, sphere, how many edges/vertices/faces)


''June 7 – June 21''

Finish up the create mesh tool.
Tools that I would like to implement:
-	vertex/face selector
-	move vertex/face

''June 22 – July 6''

Tools that I would like to implement:
-	Expand/shrink mesh
-	edit normals 

''July 7 – July 15 (Mid-term evaluation deadline)''

-	Submit mid-term evaluation
-	If any of the tools haven’t been completed at this point, use this week to finish them. 
-	Deal with any unforeseen complications.
-	If there are none, start working on the delete vertex/vertices tool.


''July 16 – July 30''

Tools I would like to implement:
-	Delete vertex/face tool
-	Change material

''July 31 – August 14''

Tools I would like to implement:
-	perhaps a split face tool? 
-	insert new vertex?

''August 15 – August 26 (Final evaluation deadline)''

I would like to use this two week period to finish up my final evaluation and deal with any problems that may come up during the summer. 

'''About me:'''

Hello! I’m a sophomore at Mount Holyoke College, and am a Studio Art and Computer Science double major. I am extremely interested in graphics and animation, and would like to get more involved in game development. If you want to know more about my programming/animation experience (or about anything else!) feel free to send me an email!
