Hi to All, My partner and I are considering creating a Project/Images/File/Network management system for 3ds. I would like to list out the current ideas that we have for this system, and welcome ALL suggestions. 3DS File Manager 1. Add text descriptions to all files. (3ds, prj, or images) 2. Create, Delete, Move – single or groups of files or directories 3. View all images, flics 4. Image conversion 5. Batch conversion 6. Geometry conversion 7. IFL Builder 8. Network rendering reports (Network rendering performance) 9. Archive files and maps We do understand that many of these already exist in 3ds. What we are trying to accomplish is a single program to handle these functions easier. We are thinking of this as a front end to 3ds. You could start 3ds by picking in the 3ds or prj file. Would it be better or worse if we made the program as a stand alone, or as a ipas? We would like all comments from everyone on what you would like to see in the package. Thank You Scott Polk
