I don't know how many times this have been
said, and making a poll about it is the most
foolish thing I have seen yet.

YOU CANNOT IMPORT A MODEL WITH .MDX
OR .MDL WITH ANIMATIONS!

Well technicly you can, but not without
messing the animations all up.

What you have to do if you want to keep
the animations is:

1) Import it with importexport.mse
- Uncheck bone rotation and activate
- the option "Static"

2) Edit your model (Don't add or delete any verticies).
Once you are done rotate
the model so it turns toward the X axis.

3) Export your model as an .mdl

4) Open the .mdl you just exported

5) Copy all the "Verticie" data into
the original .mdl of the model you
are editting (making the new verticie
data replace the old)

6. Save the .mdl and convert it to .mdx
