Thoughts on animation scripting language |

Hi all, while LDCad 1.3 is still in beta I'm already playing with 1.4 things....
One of those things will be animation, I want to take the all scripting road with this. So the thing I'm trying to decide at the moment is to ether create my own language (based on the one from LD4DStudio) or tie in an existing language (e.g. LUA).
The scripts will do little more then describe relations between groups. For example in case of two gears with the attached axles etc the script will do something like 'a.angle:=-2*b.angle'. A script could also manipulate the group placement matrix directly etc.
While LUA or pearl might be very powerful, it also will be difficult for non programmer users ( I Think) to get started with. A simple custom language on the other hand will be much easier to learn but limited to basic single function formulas etc. Although I could expand the language over time.
In short I find it difficult to decide at the moment, so I was hoping for some additional thoughts.

The LDraw All-In-One-Installer 2013-01, in short AIOI, has been released.
The AIOI supports Windows XP (Home and Pro), Windows Vista (all versions) and Windows 7 (all versions). On 64-Bit Operating Systems it will install in the "Program files (x86)" folder. The Installer will NOT run on Windows 95, 98, ME, NT Ver 4, 2000, or XP below SP2.
Changes: - Removed Alias Parts Library
- Updated LDFind
- Updated LeoCAD
- Kept Pov-Ray 3.6 though 3.7 has been officially released. There is currently an issue with the license of the Editor.dll, which therefore is not part of the redistribution package. Will switch to 3.7 as soon as this has been solved.
There are currently some issues with the registration of a file needed by Sticker Generator when installing on Windows 8.
You can download the AIOI from:
Home > Help > Get Started > LDraw All-In-One-Installer
Many thanks to all the programers who contributed to this release.
