I think I used Delphi v7.0, and it was free since they want us to get hooked in an old free version and then upgrade to one that's not free. There were many problems with LDBoxer if my memory serves me right. The biggest was it didn't have support for long file names or whitespaces in paths or file names. The constant changes of the LDraw spec's made me give up the whole project.
And: LDBoxer - at least in my versions - does not support MPD or any SNOT application at all. I simply don't have that programming skills.
It's sad that it doesn't handle MPD files properly. It's still better than nothing, though.
Do you think you could build a version that works on the command-line?
Or, could you take a look at @Jarema's and my direct translation into Python? I can get the script to run (Python scripts don't need to be compiled first, as long as you have Python installed), but there's something broken in it.
Thanks!
