Title: MDL Importer
Post by: F1xer on July 03, 2017, 04:12:50 PM
Hello, I've been using Crowbar to decompile all my MDL models to SMD. This gives me the animations, and the Gun separated from the Magazine. Recently I discovered Wall Worm and its MDL Importer is way better than Crowbar, because the models are way more defined, like a high poly. My problem is that with MDL Importer I don't become the animations and the Gun separated from the Magazine. Is there any way to become theese?

Animation is not yet supported in the MDL loader. It is the next major feature. When added, you'll get a fully skinned/rigged model with all the animations in Max.

I can't give an ETA. I'd hoped to have it already but the other programmer working with me on adding that is currently tied up in other work and I am pretty tied up as well. I'm hopeful to have it this month but make no promise.

Wow, thanks, it sounds pretty good.
And what can you tell me about having the Gun separated from the Magazine?

Thank you again for answering fast.

When it's skinned, you'll be able to isolate sections skinned to a specific bone.
