Chris Colefax's Compressed Mesh Macros can also deform meshes. The advantage
of the Mezz Deformer is that the normals are handled correctly, and that the
texture sticks to the objects when deformed. It uses more memory and parsing
time though.

To be able to deform meshes with correct normals and texture mapping... :)
