Well I got the plugin and..................I think I'll be using Grouper until it's past the beta version.
You know how Grouper lets you select all the obj's that use the same texture and gives them their proper names, grouping them at the same time, well unfortunately the new plugin doesn't and the names it does give the obj's is the full directory, which means it's really hard to know what you are selecting when you click until it's selected.
Maybe I was hoping for too much since they really haven't had it long enough to make any major updates but one of the selling points of the plugin was that it would retain the transparency information, which I thought was great, but it didn't or it did, but not for all the transparencies.
I guess I should go test it some more to see what exactly it can do although I'm no longer as excited as I was last night.
