========================
WoW Model Viewer - TO DO
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1. Model display
	- Tauren and trolls: do not add foot texture for boots? (or add a toggle option)

2. Other requested features
	- Multiple Lighting.
	- Animation Scripting.
	- Carry equipment over from character to character.
	- Add a toggle for lighting to be relative to the model.

3. (distant) future improvements:
	- Texture import / exporting.
	- Model exporting / converting.
	- Add support for "casting spells".
	- Be able to equip creature models.
	- BakedNPC's need improving - compile a list or database of some sort of all the npc's in-game.
	- Optimise Point Sprites (particles) with hardware acceleration.

4. Misc:
	- Improve Cross-Platform compatbility for Mac OS X.
	- Enable Unicode support (for Japanese / Korean / Chinese compatability).
		* Enable the use of MSLU to suport Win98 which uses ANSI.
		
5. Very distant future improvements:
	- Have sounds, spells, effects, etc react to Animations.
	- Have animations react to keyboard input, jump, walk, run, etc.
		
6. Investigate:
	- Differentiate between Upper Body and Lower Body Animation, ie. sitting down while dancing.
	- Some models/sets use too many textures? Corrupts the background image for some graphic cards (Dragonstalker)?
		* Possible fix to update video card drivers?
	- Hair/Head textures are black for certain Graphic cards and drivers.

===============================
WoW Model Viewer Known Bug List
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- All Particle systems need fixing, possible sollution is to re-write them from scratch.
- Alpha Blending (Turkey, and the new transparent dragon for example), is incorrect.
- Gif Exporter does NOT currently work with WMO's - doing so will cause program to crash.
- Alpha Layer in PNG screenshots needs correcting, alpha layer overwrites the existing RGB values.
