July 21, 200619 yr No sweat Bill, I think we all understand that no one wants to see any tool go away. Quite the contrary, choices are good as long as they all produce the same result.I found an update to the export script in a forum, so apparently the authror's latest version on his site isn't the latest after all. This one exports Quat info in addition to matrix transforms and produced 3 sets of keys for one single rotation anim. Now I need to see which, if any, of those work in makeMDL.I can't say enough about the benefits of making tools open source... the help you get is amazing. That, plus the fact that it's not only acceptable to borrow code and strategies from other projects, it's actually encouraged!Side note: If you develop a tool under the GPL, be careful that you don't export your saved user data in such a way that it gets labeled GPL as well. A Blender project called MakeHuman ran into this and had to change their license and methods slightly so that exported data is owned by the artist while the tool itself stayed under the GPL.Scott / Vorlin
