Added 10.0.1.2 to the list of "supported" versions.

Fixed several bugs that were preventing support for old 3.1 and below files from working.  Many of these can now be loaded.
Added version 3.1 to list of "supported" versions.

Updated Niflib to the latest XML which adds support for bhkMeshShape, NiMultiTextureProperty, NiRawImageData, and NiSequence.

Objects now have a Create methods and register themselves in the global object map with pre-main initialization, making obj_factories.cpp obsolete.

Re-exposed TYPE constants and marked them NIFLIB_API, making the TypeConst function obsolete.  You now must use NiObject::TYPE instead of NiObject::TypeConst() again.

More documentation improvements.  Added documentation to NiDynamicEffect-derived objects, removed some obsolete examples, and replaced remaining references to "block" with "object" wherever possible.

Moved ListAncestors and FindCommonAncestor helper functions from inside of NiGeometry to public interface.

* gcc BIG_ENDIAN and LITTLE_ENDIAN name clash fix

Finished up preliminary endian support.  Theoretically it should be possible to read a big-endian file on a little-endian system, but it is not possible to do the opposite, or to create a little-endian file due to issues with the header needing to switch endian types int he middle of the generated code and always read the bytes that make up the NIF version in the same order.

Laying the groundwork for Niflib to be able to work on systems with different endian types.  All Read/Write functions now take NifInfo structures which are based by const reference.  These are also passed into the NifStream functions so they will have access to the requested endian type of the NIF as well.  Also added endian detection and swapping functions.

number of objects are supported so far, to reduce the size of the
wrapper. Details:

* set property eolstyle:native on .cpp and .h files for better windows + linux 
  support

* added small cpp file for quick nif read and write test (for
  debug purposes)

* fixed memory leak due to array of non-fixed sized objects:
  Header.copyright (caused segfaults under GCC)

* disabled pragma warning on NvTriStripObjects.cpp

* fixed undefined behaviour of map[...] = ... map.size() ... in
  niflib.cpp (caused segfaults under GCC)

* cleaned up SConstruct file
  - if DEBUG is false, TUNE is assumed
  - added TEST option

* workaround in pyniflib.h for ReadNifTree (need to find better solution!)

* swig wrapper interface: NiNode, NiAVObject, and NiObjectNET are
  fully supported (nothing else, for now)

* now using unittest for python test script(s)

Properly capitalized include file names in niflib.cpp.

  -----   
o Exporter
  - Add BSX flags for NIF exports when animation is involved for Oblivion.
  - Worked around what appears to be a bug in the Bezier Scale controller.
  - Change time intervals when exporting MW style animation.
  - Fixed bug with missing reference in Footer in MW exported .KF files.
  - Call routine to apply skin offsets to Skin data (required for MW?)

o Importer

  - Invoke Max Script in Max 5 so that we can import Note Tracks

Fixed strange bug.  All files now load again, and Niflib is now destroying objects properly and reporting the right number of Objects from NiObject::NumObjectsInMemory.

Replaced _WRITE, _READ, _STRING, AND _FIXLINKS defines with the corresponding internal function call.
Replaced STANDARD_INTERNAL_FUNCTIONS with the internal function signatures.
Made my Doxygen config file use relative paths and added it to SVN so everyone can generate the same documentation for themselves.
Removed includes WZ added to ComplexShape.  These were not missing, they are up to the user to include if they wish.

Several fixes to XML and Niflib to enable all my files from Freedom Force (except with NiClodData), Oblivion, CivIV, Morrowind, Zoo Tycoon 2, and DAoC to load in Niflib and NifSkope.
Includes the two strange Oblivion files with version 3.3.0.13 and version 10.0.1.2.

Added support for sub version 4 headers, object storage, and link method.  Some objects like NiNodes already read correctly.

CheckNifHeader -> GetNifVersion
GetVersion -> ParseVersionString
IsVersionSupported -> IsSupportedVersion
Added new function, FormatVersionString, to format integer version numbers as a #.#.#.# string.
GetNifVersion so it no longer returns VER_UNSUPPORTED.  It now always returns the actual version value, if possible, which can be passed to IsSupportedVersion if desired.
GetNifVersion now supports version numbers lower than 4.
Added versions 4.0.0.0 and 10.1.0.106 to version constants and IsSupportedVersion function.
Updated some documentation.

Changed WriteNifTree, and WriteFileGroup functions to take NifInfo structures instead of version and user_version arguments.
Changed ReadNifList and ReadNifTree to optionally fill a passed in NifInfo structure with information from the header of the NIF file they read.
Fixed some tabs that were done with spaces instead of actual tab characters.
Updated from XML.

1. Update NiStencilProperty based on Shon's changes
2. Rewrote large chunks of WriteFileGroup related routines.
3. Added a WriteNifTree which allows for multiple roots (not exposed publically)
4. Added option to BindSkin to scene instead of skeleton root.
5. Fixed bug in RemoveController
6. Added helpers to NiControllerManager for sequence management
7. Propegated user_version in routines which take a version

Fixed the relative include paths and tried to update solution, but havn't got the precompiled header working right.

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

Renamed CreateBlock to CreateObject and made it clear that it is not necessary for the user to call this function unless s/he is working through Python.
Removed BlocksInMemory function.  Call NiObject::NumObjectsInMemory instead.
Removed CreateBlock template since new keyword can be used.
Implemented GetScale and SetScale functions of bhkNiTriStripsShape to fix linker errors when compiling Python wrapper.

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.

Changed default for new controllers to 12; Active/Clamped.  Should get cycle type from NiControllerSequence.

2.  Change mergeniftrees to default phase to 0.0f instead of 1.0f as its a better default value.
