I did a cvs commit which adds a leaf creation hook to ssgLoadAC.cxx
This should allow you to load the image formats you need.  This hook
should allow you to do other things like:
 
- load compressed or volumized textures
- strip off full paths from texture filenames
    i use that for ASE files because the modeler stores full paths
    whereas Steve likes a path that starts with '/' to be left alone.
- cull unwanted geometry or texture info
- recompute normals
 
Which format did you need?  I plan to get to the OBJ and ASE loaders
soon.
 
Look at the ssgIO.cxx module for how the default ssgCreateFunc hook
is written.
