This is a little something I made back in February as I was redoing some of the CMT Elite and Brute 3p animations. It was a serious pain to have to manually fix node checksums and node names to get them to export/compile correctly so I took a day and made this. I've been sitting on it for a while and figured that somewhere, someone will probably get some use out of it. I'm not sure how many people here do biped animating, which is where this is most useful, but I'm sure everyone has had node checksum problems at some point or other.
  It's basically a handy little Java app. It's not complex by any means but it's been a real time-saver for me in a lot of cases. It can do such wonderful things with JMS and JMA files as...
It also has a Maxscript counterpart which can also auto-rename node prefixes - this is extremely useful if you're animating on a bone setup imported with BlueStreak and need to export with Blitz, as Blitz freaks out when you try to export anims with non-biped objects named "bip01". A special thanks goes to CAD who showed me how to do that like 2 years ago. Thanks CAD. Report any bugs or horrible mangling of your system in this thread so I can try to fix them (bugs not your system). The source is included so you can criticize my poor coding habits or do whatever. Oh yes, and if you don't know how to run a .jar, you do this in the command prompt. At least, on Windows.

Though I probably won't be using it much, thanks for it anyway, I can see how it'll be helpful.
