Re: [bug #36764] GUI does not currently support loading with standard localized directories...

[Gregory Casamento]

Fred,

Just a bit about the model loading process...

Currently there is something like this implemented already.  When I
designed the model loading system I made it so that you could add
model loading classes via frameworks or libraries (e.g. Renaissance...
although this never happened).   There is a class method called
"+priority" which defines the priority that each model type should be
considered in.

Later, GC
