SoM Mdl files are a proprietory file type......... Meaning that they were made exclusivly for Sword of Moonlight , the kings field making toolset........ Also means unles you have the exact software From used to make the files... recreating them is almost impossible........ I wasted months and months trying to actully insert new models in to existings mdl files......... All to no avail , the only progress I made was inserting a cube into an existing model........... Oh yeah, that time I will never get back........ I tried over 14 differnt types of software that outputted to MDL, even Aircraft and molecule software...... Som seems to be its own Monster........ and since From wont speak to americans AT ALL (trust me Todd and I have tried) We still have no idea what modeling software they used to even create them, more than likely they are as stated befor proprietory, and we will have to be happy to clever reskins of existing models...... Tis sad...... I hope one day some proves me wrong and finds the software they used to make the files, or finds a way to take .X files made then convert them for use in SoM ....... But even if you can convert a .X to an MDL you would still have the issue of creating MATCHING PRF files to make them do what they are supposed to do.........Just my thoughts...............ML
