Good lighting doesn't just happen,it's designed.

Export plugin was borrowed from Milkshape with old MDL5 support for Gamestudio. Support is not existant. But I loved the modelling, the ease of use through the little visual helpers on the grid. But now I am even faster in Lightwave with keyboard shortcuts. I am happy that I made the move to a better software. Models, Textures and Games from Dexsoft
