To get the correct skeleton in Milkshape(i use Postal)
-Open the fullbuild package with Postal
-choose show Nmapnames from the workspace menu
-click the LongName tab at the top(puts all files names in alphabetical order, it will take a while)
-lookup the mesh(all are listed as
CTU displays them, cfTopNude for instance)
-select the GEOM by clicking on it in the Longname tab
-double click the UNK file in the BodyPartGeometry
-In the popup window you export the file at the Hex tab
-Save the file as .skcon file instead of the .unk format(save it in the same folder as your GEOM!)
NOTE, do not change the filename, only its format!!!!
-The moment you import your GEOM in MS it will automaticly load its skeleton
The plugin looks for the last TGI reference from the GEOM comments wich is the link to the skeleton.
You can only load the correct skeleton if it matches the TGI reference
This means you need to extract and use the matching skeleton for every diffrent GEOM you work on.
If your planning to make alot child meshes(and want to use Ms's animation) then import a standard GEOM and its skeleton and save it as Ms3d file.
Use it as a template for future projects
I included the cfTopNude skeleton as template(ms3d) that you can use.
The skeleton is only used by MS and will not be saved within the GEOM on export.
Whiterider is lucky the plugins work with his version of Windows 7, i do know it does not for others.
I do remember i had some problems at first with the correct display of the popup window, can you hit the commit button after you have edited the bonesettings?
