Version 2.799 released on 4-23-2016

* Settings: Added new setting in the Models tab for ignoring mesh scale. Defaults to True. When off, the legacy method is used (that required all nodes to have zero scaling.
   
* SMD Exporter: Updated the SMD/DMX exporter to ignore the root node's mesh scale if the global settings are set to ignore mesh scale.   

* SMD Exporter: Updated SMD Exporter to be more forgiving with scaled models and rigs.
   
* DMX Exporter: Updated DMX Exporter to be more forgiving with scaled models and rigs.
   
* DMX Exporter: Improved compatibility with exporting meshes that have been transformed in the world.
   
* Menus: Added menu in Exporters sub-menu to load the DMX Converter UI that's been in WW for a while but had not launcher.

Version 2.7993 released on 4-26-2016

   * WWMT: Updated the method of calculating the coordinate system for WWMT to match the SMD exporter. Addresses some situations with functions that write coordinates into the QC like $masscenter and $illumposition.
   
   * System: Fixed a crash in 3ds Max 2017 when the version of WW updated since last time Max 2017 was run. This fix also means Max 2017 will not automatically update the WW Menus when a new version is installed. At this time, Max 2017 users must manually update their menus by running the Menus Script.
