Conclusion

It was not clear what the -search argument would produce without more extensive testing.

On first look:

  • The biggest surprise was the additional output of CJBO-related DAE files. Their significance is secondary. They may prove useful for further experiments involving vertex shading. However, for level recycling we do not strictly need these files, as the recommended workflow includes Neo's class-based system, which generates new geometry for these objects.
  • Missing textures are usually more problematic, as they can interrupt the level loading sequence. Therefore, we should continue recommending the -search argument.
