Im having a problem, i made the glowing eye murloc from Oinkerwinkle's tutorial. But when i want to convert the mdl to mdx with Yobguls, i get:

Assertion failed: !"what?", file xx.cpp line 756

then the program terminates.
ive searched and read most tutorails and threads similar to it, but i cant find it.

Can you post the MDL? Also, did you download the emitter adder recently? If not, then you might be using a defective version. (I had some pretty bad mistakes in there for a while.)

You're evidently using commas as a decimal point instead of periods. Thus, the color line came out as "Color { 0, 0,501960784313725, 1 }," instead of "Color { 0, 0.501960784313725, 1 }," (see comma changing to period?). So, the converter thought you had 4 colors there.

See here for instructions on how to change that.

I know its very annoying, so if you dont want to, say it and then i wont brag again.

I've never used Windows ME, so I can't give you really specific instructions. If you say where you got stuck and give a screenshot, I might be able to help.
