Support for IK Boost

Hi there

I would just LOVE for the IK Boost tool to be supported with LW2DTS.

I think Lightwave is going in the right direction with this IKBoost. It's not flawless and I don't think it replaces normal IK but one can definitely use it as an enhancement.
It makes it much easier to set up etc. well for me anyway.

You can find out more over here http://www.ikboost.com/

Dave, is there any possibility that this could be added in future releases of LW2DTS ?

IK Boost works fine :) only it doesn't work with Motion Mixer unless you disable the MM_MotionDriver from each bone when animating.

Ive got no problems in exporting to Torque using it.
