Before Neverending Story, he did a handful of TV productions. Some of them were solid character movies, especially two crime movies I vaguely remember. But all in all, like Emmerich, he is overrated with his hollywood works.
But I believe the Bluescreen facilities they used for Neverending Story did bring a lot of business to Germany. Wasn't it the largest bluescreen in the world at one time?
