Wi-Exporter Version History

The latest version of Wi-Exporter is v1.56 (build 128). This is available from the Wi-Exporter Support page as a patch update to v1.52.

v1.56 (build 128)

Feature Enhancements

• More intelligent descendent searching now implemented: Wi-Exporter now looks for files first in the output folder so user doesn't need to repath multiple instances of the same file. This also speeds up exporting significantly on large scene files.
• File name truncation. Use of the '#' symbol now eradicated which can cause problems in Macintosh server environments (File copy errors reported).
• 'Wrong Type' bug fixed when pathing to unusual image file descendents.

v1.52 (build 122)

Feature Enhancements

• Path Detection - More unusual paths can now be read and interpreted. Particularly useful for users who don't conform to standard content directory layouts for their projects.
• Missing Dependents - Users now have the option to skip missing files or abort the source batch file when a missing dependent is encountered.
• Missing Extensions - Users are now asked to assign file types and extensions via a popup to files with missing extensions. This reduces export errors and unifies the export process across platforms.
• Start Directories - Start paths for search directories are now more logical, so users don't have to begin searches from their main drive / partition.
• Structure Editor - Editor window now redraws faster - useful when doing large structure grabs.

Bugs Fixed

• Missing Sequences - Bug returned when locating a missing image sequence.
• Sequences with names using spaces sometimes altered after export, causing import errors into LW.
• Empty missing filenames - Missing dependents sometimes reported as an empty filename.
• Windows users' "baFileType" error when exporting a file with a missing extension.

v1.51 (build 116)

Features Added

• Interface redesign - interface completely redesigned to include a host of new features.
• Batch List (up to 99 files per batch)
• Structure Editor - Users can now create custom designed output file structures
• Content Directory Detection on File Load - User is now informed of the content directory and invited to manually change if incorrect.
• File Prefix / Suffix Capability - Users can now add image and object prefixes / suffixes on a file-by-file basis. These are added to filenames during export.
• Build Folders Button - Users can now build the entire folder structure present in the Structure Editor within their designated output folder.

Bugs Fixed

• Export plugin refined - export plugin updated to take account of absolute file paths and other dependent paths that were previously being missed or misinterpreted.

v1.01 (build 106)

Launch Version

Known Issues with Latest Version

LW9 support
LW9 files are little altered from previous versions, so most files will export fine with Wi-Exporter v1.52. The only exception is when image maps are created using the new nodal system. If Image Map nodes are added, these cannot yet be detected by the plugin and so will pass unexported.

As soon as the SDK extension for the new Nodal system is available, we will update Wi-Exporter to take account of this new and exciting feature.

.pst and .srf Files
Some problems reported exporting .pst and .srf files created in LW8.3+. Exported versions of files can cause LW to crash while they're loading.
Status - Under Investigation
