I've been playing around with OL and it is GREAT! I ran my yak through it and it removed the unused object names that opstudio generated. Very slick!

I'm in the process of removing unused texture references (how about automating this?) but I ran into a file olc and smd can't handle.. here it is:

Tailslide,

the canopy.sm file is bad, it doesn't
have cement in the material table.
Looks like another victim of one of those
early versions of OPS.

Seems the FS:SDOE runtime code isn't that
fussy about the material table names.

It might be possible to make SMD a bit smarter so it can attempt to repair these
kinds of problems. I guess OLC could use some
more error checking too so it warns about
problems in .OL files.

Hippie.

Tailslide,
I've put up ol-6.zip which might work better
on canopy.sm.

The test I was using to detect those busted
multigen creator convertor generated .sm
files also detected having anything other
than "c" (ement) as the first name in the namelist as a buggy multigen file.

Hopefully it still caters for multigen case
OK.

Hippie.
