Yes I only REALLY need set 1, Set 2 is just to make the builing
instructions, move stuff around and ensure that all is okay but it never
gets distributed.

Yes.. in some case all 'submodels - files referenced by compelete.ldr show
up) and in some case they do not.

Lar? Is this your definition of a file USING submodels? In this the
submodels are Pillars.ldr, MainFloor.ldr, etc..
If I use L3P to convert this file (complete.ldr) with the -sc switch, the
results are horrible. Complete.ldr has 4 steps, but pillars.ldr has 10
steps, and MainFloor.ldr has 31 steps.
When rendering complete.ldr from 1 to 4 you only get the following:
Step 1: Step1 of all submodels
Step 2: step2 of all submodels
step 3: step3 of all submodels
ste4: step 4 of all submodels
end of rendering. So you see complete.ldr is NOT really fully rendered but
since in it's code theire are steps both in the complete.ldr object AND in
the pillar.ldr object pov only renders as far as the steps go.
