- DESCRIPTION
-
- Scene Manager is a multi-purpose utility for manipulating scenes created
- by Lightwave 3D. It can move, update, and delete scenes around a network,
- or offline, as well as create archives containing all components needed to
- render it. These archives can be undone on your PC, SGI, Raptor3, Mac,
- or whatever Lightwave is ultimately released for with or without
- the use of a native version of Scene Manager.
-
-
- LIMITATIONS OF UNREGISTERED VERSION
-
- 1) The unregistered version only supports archiving in the LhA format.
- It does NOT support de-archiving (restoring).
-
- LhA is not included in the archive, but is available from Aminet,
- Fred Fish, or your local BBS or user group. I highly suggest also
- registering LhA, as it is by far the best archiver available for the
- Amiga thus far. (Although I hear that LHX is nice.)
-
- The registered version features a customizable compression scheme. All
- that is required is the command line option definition for whatever
- archiver you wish to use (and the binary for said archiver).
- It also supports splitting the archives into disk-sized parts, for
- transfer by that method. DD & HD floppies, SyQuest, and Bernoulli
- disks are all supported in any format you have the drivers for.
- I.E. CrossMAC(tm), MaxDOS(tm), CrossDOS(tm), etc...
-
- Current tested archivers include (more can be added instantly):
- .LHA (because it's the Amiga standard)
- .ZIP (for transfer to PC's)
- .LHX (because it's supposedly faster and more efficient)
- .ZOO, .ARC (for old times' sake)
-
- 2) The unregistered version will not allow you to process more than one
- scene at a time. Naturally, the registered version has no such
- limitations.
-
-
- FUTURE
-
- I am open for suggestions! A Windows version is definately planned, but
- it's distribution all depends on the number of registrations we receive.
