Any upcoming plans for supporting Lightwave models, animations, etc.? If so, when can we expect to see support for Lightwave? Thanks

I''m working on object and keyframing and hopefully it will be in the next release. No skin/bone support yet.

Can you estimate when we''ll see full Lightwave support inculding bones and skins.

Can you give an approximate time?

Maya as well.


Thank You

No I can''t, considering I haven''t started working on LW bones or Maya support and don''t know what is involved.

Right now I have LWO geometry and materials loading. I am working on textures now and will add the LWS converter later (which I already have from PR 2.6). I have decided to load the files directly rather than make a plugin for Lightwave since only a few changes need to be made to my old LWO code to handle the new format.

You don''t have to wait. Beta 8 and the trial version supports Lightwave .LWO and .LWS files right now.
