Model viewer?

[Starbird]

I'm wondering if it would be worth the time to make a standalone model viewer for skinning.

Just load it up, tell it what object you want to see and what skin (bitmaps) to apply to it.

Make it able to rotate the object to see if all the textures line up and such.

Been trying some skinning, and it takes some time to build the terrain and load it up, select the plane, just to see if a seam lines up correctly.

Its especially worse since my workstation doesn't display ah correctly for some reason.

You don't need to build the terrain.

After you finish skining your shape(s), make sure you place them in the "texsrc" folder.

Open up the editor and place the shape that you were working on, you'll see the changes right away.

P.S  If you were going to work on the P51D, place the shape in the editor and say ok to the "object properties" box.  Exit and save.  Next time you open the editor your P51D plane will still be there and will show the new textures.

Use this terrain as a template.
Meets the mininum terrain requirements.
