In 3ds max, im trying to use the export .mdl script, and it says the model i made in 3ds does not have any TVFaces on the mesh, how do I put these on so it will export?

i believe that refers to the fact that not all of your meshes have an unwrap uv modifier on them

TVFaces means Texture Vertex Faces. This means that there is no UVW data for those polygons.

how have you gotten fully skinned units without knowing this?

*baffled*

anyway go to the modifers stack and apply a uvmap modifer, then apply a unwrap uv modifer to move the TVerts around to unwrap your model properly.
