Title : New floppy disk-based compression software
Keywords: COMPRESSION FLOPPY STORAGE
Beta testers needed for new compression software! Fit up to twice
as much data on an ordinary floppy! Compression routines reside
on floppy only, so you don't need decompression software on your
hard drive. This is great for transferring files from machine-to-machine.
Full installation instructions included.

Scan3DS is a program designed to scan a .3DS or .MLI file and
report info to ? the user. It will list all texture, bump, opacity,
and reflection maps used in a scene, as well as all objects, materials,
lights & cameras. It can create a ZIP containing the 3DS or MLI
and all relevant maps. It can report missing maps needed to render
a scene, and the materials for each object. Dl'd from Adesk Global Village,

I've deleted SCAN3D.ZIP from the What's New Directory (at least, I've marked it
for deletion — I don't know if anyone can still d/l it or not). I found after
I uploaded it, that it has a real problem with directories with too many files
in them (what "too many" is, exactly, I'm not sure). Basically, if you ask it
to find "missing" maps for your 3DS or MLI file, it'll search the dirs speced
in the 3DS.SET file, but after it's read its fill of filenames, it'll ignore
the rest (ie, if your "maps" dir is sorted alphabetically, it may find all maps
a-m but report maps n-z as "missing".
I plan to contact the author, Christer Janson (Autodesk AB, Sweden) and see
about getting this fixed, as it would be a great program otherwise. Anyone
know if I can contact him via the Global Village?

David – Thanks for the explanation. The file should no longer be available now.
I'll pass the problem description along to Christer Jansen. Perhaps he'll touch
it up the utility a bit for us.
Thanks Christal — Tell him we'll all really really really really really really
appreciate it!
