Hey can someone sum up a little… i read some post from user pants…butt he posts and plugs are about 3 years old…

what tools/plugins would you recommend for making characater/weapon animations…and creating working mds’s?

note: im currently using milkshape, and created a couple of models already, but nothing advanced like animation…and exporting to mds

thnx a heap, jot

Milkshape is fine for mapmodels (MD3), but forget it for character models. While it has an MDS importer, it can’t export properly, if at all.

The original character models were made in 3DS Max with Character Studio. Ikanatto has done some work in converting the RtCW format, MDS, into ET’s MDM/MDX format, and I understand Lightray3D can do it now (BUT I CAN’T COMMENT ON HOW THIS WORKS).

lol maybe if you can import RAY files to you program supporting good mds export you dont need to pay for it…
But well i am still waiting if Ikonatto will release his tools …
Good job Ikonatto …
