I'm not sure if I know what you mean here. But an importer will most
likely create joints for all parts in the MPD. Otherwise it will be
difficult to determine which to do and which ones not.

I've been working with simple rotating POV-animations earlier, and one of the
most annoying things about L3P is that you can't edit the output format - and
having to manually change the ambience and radiosity-settings (and possibley
flawed colour definitions of new colours) for 60 individual POV-files each time
was one of the main reasons that I gave up.

So any new adjustment possibilities you can add to the output file will be
appreciated.


I'll see what I can add to help automate some post processing activity's

It would also be nice to be able to set the quality-level for the individual
actors, so you set the quality of ultra near mocs to 3 (studlogo), near mocs to
2 (studs) and everything else to 1 (no studs) - you can't even see the studs on
stuff 1-2000 ldu's away, so there's really no reason to waste CPU on them.

This is a very good idea, I'll keep it in mind.

(...) Thank {you} if you implement it ;-) - I'd hate to do all that work over again. BTW if you're able to incorporate that function, it would be nice if you can merge individual submodels since more than 90% of mine are usually just angled sections (...)
