     that were not used.
  - Fix bug with normals introduced in 0.2.2 when fixing previous problem
  - Changed code to scale the mesh so that Reset XForm is not required
  - Added support for Bone LOD code.  Works with Civ4 Bone LOD Manager.
  - Added support for Lights and Cameras
  
o Importer
  - Alter code to create Camera nodes when name begins with Camera.
  - Initial pass at Lights
  - Fixed issues with skin modifier on Civ4 Units and Leaderheads
  - Added support for Bone LOD code.  Works with Civ4 Bone LOD Manager.
  - Added support for Lights and Cameras
  - Fixed issues with Textures with muliple UV Sets

Importer - Alter code to create Camera nodes when name begins with Camera.

2. commit fix for bug with transforms.

Fix commit issues with the export tristipper.  Removed old headers and added the new ones in the detail area.

Replace the Tri Stripper with a new version. The old version had some bugs which came when compiled with VS 2005.

2. Add support for changing the priority on NiSequenceControllers
3. Update code due to CreateBlock changes and removal of CreateNiObject.

1. Fix issue with exporting with user version specified.  Oblivion CS will crash if not set correctly.
2. Fix issues with nif export in general around bhk ordering (ported over from gundalfs changes)
3. Civ4 Shader support for max
4. Numerous bug fixes to max.

  - Added Vertex Color modifier support
  - Fixed issue with static animation import
  - Fixed issue with skin vertex weight count import
  
o Exporter
  - Dropped registry support in favor of INI file.
  - Dropped Official Max6 support because I do not have SDK to compile it with (try the max 7 files).
  - Fixed issue with importing glossiness setting on textures.
  - Fixed issues with export of vertex color. Alpha map is now exported as part of the normal color map.
  - No longer exports meshes associated with bone or biped nodes.
  - No longer exports extra NiNode when exporting NiTriGeom-based objects (can be reset in ini file)
  - Mass, Restitution(Ellasticity), and Friction now share values with Reactor(Havok)
  - Modified UPB export to actually export the values in the UserPropBuffer not just a fixed list.
  - Added Skin Modifier export
  
o NifProps Utility
  - Mass, Restitution(Ellasticity), and Friction now share values with Reactor(Havok)

Set the num weights to 4 so Oblivion meshes import/export more correctly.  Want to rewrite this with less hardcoded numbers in the future.

2. Start adding Collision import in to max importer
3. Fix bug with Glossiness in Exporter
4. Alter Exporter to use ini file instead of Registry if ini is present
5. Alter Exporter to share UPB values with Reactor
6. Remove duplicate niflib directory

Fixed rotation issue with animation import
Added biped "support" for max 7 (still cannot test properly but it compiles.)

Commit Max 7 (ie no biped) changes since I have an old max7 demo floating around and can use the sdk off that cd to build.

Added initial animation support for embedded NIF controller data.  External files are suspect at the moment.
