Hello Raytracer.

     Creating something for Lightwave is tempting, but lightwave isn't free, and I don't have a copy.  Not only would I be unable to test the output of my programs, I wouldn't even know what kind of programs to create.  I don't even know if a Lightwave compatable version of NewSkin woukd be useful.

     Can you think of any simple utilities that Lightwave could use.  Does it need something to verify or swap references to external files?  Maybe something to package files for distribution?

     When I get around to it, I need to add a batch processing feature to NewSkin, for Poser content creators.  I would also like to put in a way to correct references to misplaced object files.

     I actually have a short list of simple projects I want to work on.  One is a database of references between Poser files.  This way you can rename a texture file, or texture file directory, and all of the Poser files would be updated with the new file location.  You would also be able to verify which files use a specific object or texture file, before you decide if you want to delete it. 

     Of course, I am always open to new program ideas to add to my list, as well as ideas to improve existing programs.
