Welcome again!
Thank you very much. I'm glad you all are liking it. Please feel free to share with me links to any of your projects in which you use it. I'd love to see the fruits of these labors
Speaking of labor... I think it is important somewhere in this thread to point out that the tool would not be possible were it not for Neil "Jed" Jedrzejewski who wrote the actual SMD exporter used in this tool. While this tool creates a UI for logically making formatted models for Source, the export function that creates the SMDs is all Neil! I'm assuming that everyone who was excited about this tool from the beginning had already been using Neil's exporter long before the Wall Worm tools came onto the scene!
Anyway, I just wanted to throw that out there so that hopefully some of you take a minute to go thank him for continuing to create tools for all of us. I am greatly indebted to him and feel that he needs some credit in the talk here. He has endured my random questions with patience as I built this tool. Thanks Jed!
While on the subject of credit... I wanted to let you all know that Michael Little, another name attached to this tool by giving me help as I built it, is working on a Convex Hull generator for his upcoming release of Convexity. I've been using Convexity for over a year now and really love it. He's putting together a stripped-down non-commercial version that I am sure all of you will love. The plan is that Wall Worm Model Tools will hook into that function when he's released it. That means you will be able to use WWMT to make convex collision hulls (provided you have some version of Convexity installed).
There is no official release date. Michael has told me that he's deep into the project, though. You can learn more about Convexity at maple3d.com. I have some insider information on possible new features for the Convexity in 2011... but I don't have permission to share them yet... but I will eventually shed some rumors when Michael's closer to the finish line!
