These Lightwave lscripts and tutorials were written for Lightwave 6.5b, so I'm sure their use is now limited.

LW Lscripts

Here are some Lscripts I've written; I take no responsibility for any damage these Lscripts may cause you.

All of these scripts were last tested with LightWave version 6.5b. I have been told that some of these scripts work with later versions of LightWave.

SUPER CLONER: a hierarchy cloning and renaming tool for Layout (new version 7/5/01).
   super_cloner Beta 03 (for LightWave 6.5b with LScript 2.2.2)

 

SUPER SPINNER: this does a whole lot more than just spin lights (new version 7/5/01).
   super_spinner Beta 04 (for LightWave 6.5b with LScript 2.2.2)

 

SYMMETRIZE POINTS: a symmetry restoration tool for modeler.
   SymPnts

 

INCREMENTAL SAVERS and ARCHIVERS:
   IncSave a very simple incremental saver for modeler. I love this script. Give it a quickkey!

   IncSaveLay IncSave for Layout.

   IncArchLay Incremental archiver for Layout.

 

KEY KILLER: deletes all keys except the first from every channel of the selected object
   key_killer

 

PNT2PNT: measures the exact distance between 2 selected points in modeler
   pnt2pnt

 

LW Tutorials and Discussions

Following are some brief tutorials and discussions. They are designed to be print-friendly. Please note that these Tutorials were written for LW6, so certainly now lots of the information is out of date.
