It was mainly aimed for A6.31.4 Standard since that version doesn't have this feature built in. You can grab A6LOD here: A6LOD Documentation is included. I tried to make the documentation simple, easy to follow and detailed so that everybody can understand it. Critiques aren't welcome here otherwize I would have posted this in the SC1 forum. Suggestions are welcome. I hope this plugin proves very usefull. humansandbag@hotmail.com Sabbath Software
