To any and all LightWave scripters out in the interwibble.

There is quite a few LScripts in circulation, some are very focused and task oriented while others are quite wide in scope. These tools can sometimes become a vital part of someone’s pipeline and if we as creators of LScripts become less invested in it, both in time and effort, people using it may end up suffering from unfixed bugs and scripts not working at all.

I would urge all developers of free LScripts to release them as uncompiled .ls sources, so that the scripts can be maintained and stay alive even after the creator of them has stopped caring or been hit by a truck.

Circlify is now free and uncompiled for all to poke at: http://mentalfish.com/uploads/lscripts/MFCirclify.zip

I have recently created my first ever WordPress plugin, Append Posts is the name of it. Pretty simple but useful to create pages with specific posts beneath them. So you can for instance list all posts you have put in a category Products and tagged Free, to create a page of all free products. As soon as you add another post with that category and tag, it will be listed on the page, no need to manually add links to static pages and so on.

It uses WordPress shortcodes so you can add a shortcode like this:
[append-posts category=”tools” tags=”mentalfish,plugins” count=”3″]

See it in use on this page: http://mentalfish.com/products/lscripts/

And download it if you would like to use it yourself.
