Amazing how "fluid" is the workflow in Lightwave. I have been using Maya since more than 10 years and I have to say that, although it is the industry standard, it can not match the level of reliability and quality of many of the features present in the NewTek package. I used to be a LightWave user back in the days when I had my trusty Amiga 4000 and now I am getting back to it trying to "re-learn" everything and get in shape again :D Great demonstration.
Excellent tutorial, splines really simplify a whole lot of previously complicated actions. Then again if the only thing in it was the match perspective camera option it would've been worth it.
I must be some kind of idiot as I can't find the curve to spline command under the setup / edit menu... All I can see is - Copy Hierarchy - Mirror Hierarchy - Rename Hierarchy - Import RIG - Export RIG - Delete -- Delete Hierarchy -- Delete Bone I have 11.6 setup as default, followed the tutorial step by step to the layout stage... Anyone have any idea what I may have done wrong? I am a little green as I have not used LW for a while.

umm.. well you can actually see a spline in layout if you goto its object propertys in layout,/Gemoetry/tab then Add custom object / Show Curve.
If you like, you can KILL the polys and just SELECT ALL the points, or lasso them, then ctrl-p. Same result.
