the importer supports ASE files so try getting Birtun and converting the file within there to an ASE. Looks great :D

Yeah, it is not recommened to convert to ms3d. ASE is the universal convert-to file.

You need to use biturn to convert the ms3d file to ase. also, don't forget to make sure your texture is an 8bit bmp file that's height and width are a power of 2, like 256 or 512.

Also, edit your images with the screeshot tag before Skipper takes your TV privilges away for a week.

Thats weird, i use normal ms3d files in the importer and they work fine. The only thing i see wrong is the MS3D is in caps, so the importer may not like it. instead of: earth.MS3D, change it to earth.ms3d.

Good luck :)

Seriously!?!? you dont convert them, and you're running ms3d files right out of milkshape in the game?!?!

Yeah cause the last update belgabor made was that the inporter could read ms3d files.

What about your textures? How big are they? Use a maximum of 512 x 512 pixels as texture. The texture should also be an 8bit .bmp--bitmap file. If you use an JPG, the importer could crash.

I havn't checked how big they are yet but I will resize them. I've tried using your tip rctmaniac but It doesnt seem to work.
