have about 250 EPS files, which I need to import into lightwave. I also need to accurately position them so they are 2mm apart. Is there any way to do this is as a batch? Any help will be greatly appreciated. I heard you can do it with a LScript, but the deadline for this is too soon for me to learn it.

You know you could private message him...

When you see him posts under it you can see a 'PM' icon click it and you can contact him there...

(not sure if the link is user specific)

Ah, no, I don't know of any way to do that fast. The standard importer only handles one file.

If you open them in Illustrator or Freehand, you could probably merge them and make a single file.

But I'm curious about what you're trying to do - could you post a screen shot of two of the files next to each other in the modeler?

also, check at www.flay.com for plugins
and the forums at www.cgtalk.com

Good luck!

Ahh, well, I dont think I could merge them because the offset has to be on the y-axis. Anyway, the project I am doing involves the pictures of the slices from 'The Visible Human Project'. Pretty much Im going to recreate a perfect head, with separate layers for the different muscles, jaw, etc...
