Serious Sams mdl files piss me off...

when i convert mdx into mdl it works greate, but when i try to convert mdl back to mdx it shows errors. i think problem is because all mdl files automaticli turns into Serious Sams mdl files (its because i once used open with... thing on mdl file). how can i avoid this turning into Serious Sam mdl file?

edit: plz someone who know sumtin about pc help! i cant start modeling if this is not fixed. i dont want whenever i made new model to ask other peoples to convert it for me, its cinda annoying:(

What program are you using to convert with? If you're using Yobgul's file converter, at http://www.wc3campaigns.com/forums/s...threadid=23516, you shouldn't get that problem.

Ya im using Yobgul's converter and now i can't even convert .mdx into .mdl
wtf? it says:
Error reading model file:
File is not a binary model file emote_confused

eheh I think it's cause despite the file extension I believe WC3 MDLs are different to Serious Sam ones (I've never played that game myself thouh) same goes for MDXs, WC3 ones have different formatting

they are way different formats, dispite their extensions. You CANT simply turn a mdl sam file into mdx

What file you cnverting? There is a way : you can open the file in max then use Dex to export it. Im interested in SS models (that skeleton with two bladethings in his hands) but I lack the game myself. If its possible upload the model file, the mdl format, and the skin in tga format here and ill try to get it in game

forget the SS mdl problem

i have another question, is it possible to convert any .mdx file from war3MPQ into .mdl with Yobgul's converter? i always get:
Error reading model file:
File is not a binary model file

its a certain issue , you have to palce the file to be converted in the directory of the yobguls converter and ahve the dlls from hacked game.dll of 1.00 (which should be included)

Yobguls tool is very fickle to use thugh.
