Babe77 - No. As it says, it's for Milkshape. Will not work with Blender at all.

Sorry for bother you. But I have a problem and I can't find the mistake myself.

I use MilkShape 1.8.4 and UniMesh 4.09A. But I use the german SimPE 0.66.

My problem is that the import of the x.5gd change the name like IngeJones write before. Okay I have cange it manual, but the cribgate doesn't work.
At the Model Sheet it looks like the original package. But by the Elements I miss the Morph Files... (like MorphVertexDelta etc.)

Could anybody help me to find the answer, or a tut were helpful.

magicdawnplayer-Hmmm....if you are assigning your joint for the gate to the proper vertices before you export your new mesh, it should work in game. Are you assigning your vertices for the gate to the right joint?

Thanks for you reply KevinsHope

I have assigned the vertices to the morphmod in MilkShape befor I export and I have copy the comment from the originalpackage in.
But there a no joints in like other files...

I have check a bit. I extract the 5gd file from SimPE and import the AC4F8687-0EB5DE3B-1C050000-FFF7BB57.5gd with UniMesh 4.09A in MilkShape 1.8.4. Now I select the groups and assign the material. I haven't change anything at the mesh, but now I can only see the morphmods in the window with the texture on it and nothing else.
How could it be?
Is it a problem with the new MilkShape or my 'old' SimPE 0.66. I can't find any reason... (Perhaps it's a mistake I overlook?)
Oh, I've download the tool with OpenGL because of some errors.
But the great problem is after the import of the xxx.5gd file.
#257 Old 16th Nov 2008 at 3:18 AM
I need help. For some reason when I try to use the importer I just get a message saying my copy isn't registered, and that if I want to use MilkShape I need to buy a registration code from the site... WTF??

I am not sure what the problem is, Its when I click to edit a second set of vertexes it crashes. I downloaded the OPenGL drives to see if that works but no luck ><. Its always the second set, when i do a first set it works fine. I even tried it with different vertexes, i still get the same result. I even redid the mesh over to make sure i didn't have more than one set of skeletons

Any sugesstions? I currently have Unimesh Bone tool 4.09, and Milkshape 1.8.4 (and 1.8.2)

Err, the Unimesh plugins are attached to the first post in this thread right at the bottom - UniMeshPlugins.zip. But if you can't even find the link, you may want to think twice about meshing - meshing is a lot more difficult and complicated than finding an attachment link, and I fear if you can't do that without help, meshing is going to be way over your head.

I have a Mac OS X and I'm having trouble finding a meshing program that will work on my computer. The only thing I've found so far is something called meshwork - which won't open. Does anyone know of a good meshing program that is compatible with Macs?

I`m also reporting a glitch - simmilar to one alovingdiva has - my milkshape crashes when I`m assigning bone weights to my hair/body meshes. I`m also using milk shape 1.8.4.

Can anyone PLEASE take the effort of trying to solve this?

This has been answered many times before, in this thread.
Two known causes are video driver issues, get the Mesa DLLs at
http://chumbalum.swissquake.ch/ms3d/download.html and install them in the MilkShape program directory.
The other cause is a file that has too many bones, caused by importing multiple meshes and making the wrong choices. I will not repeat the instructions, go back through this thread and find the solutions, or just scrap that file and start over.

You are most welcome. Or, as the younger crowd says these days, No Problem! Thank you for the words of encouragement. The thread has gotten pretty large, and most of the issues people ask about are known limitations or common mistakes. If I was organized, I would just make links to the answers... most all of them are here already.

Default Some trouble exporting from Milkshape
Very new to the scene, so if I've posted incorrectly please let me know. I'm sure I'm doing something wrong with my import export part of using Milkshape, but can't seem to figure it out.. I have exported GMDC from SimPe. I import it into Milkshape using Unimesh 4.09a. I edit model and export using Unimesh. File is now 50% smaller in size!!!!?? Actual size as in kb. It went from 1 mb to 500 kb. Next I tried a test. I exported GMDC and noted size of .5gd file. It is 1 mb Then I imported into Milkshape, did not edit at all, just exported it. File has shrunk. When I look at the size of the exported file.... yup shrunk by 50 %. This is driving me crazy. Any clue as to what is up? I'm using latest versions of SimPE and Milkshape. Thanks!

Does it still work properly? That's the real test. A shrinking file size (especially if everything is still functional) just seems like a bonus to me!
