Introduction

Raising from the stone age of workflows, in which every task, from texture conversion to editing of unit stats, had to be accomplished manually and only by quite knowledgeable magistrates who new the alchemy of units.csv columns, xmesh files, and had a magic with meshers. Now, UnitConverter shines upon us, still in the distance, but unmovable like a beacon on solid rock, to be the church of the artists, to accommodate the apostles of Blender, CineMut, and LaGrande, to bring the holy spirit of salvation to this compassionate universe of ours.
