hi, i want to modelate the weapons of my halo with milkshape 3d, but i dont know how to get started.
if i want to open a weapon, i cant choose because it asks for a .ms3d file
so i tryed to change the name of pistol from .weapon into .ms3d
so, when i wanted to open it it says "this is not a valid MS3D file format"
can anyone plz tell me how to open the weapons in milkshape plz?

thx, greetz maffegerrit

why dont you want to model guns yourself? Do you know how to do that?

you need to go into hmt and export the model as an obj format. then in ms3d go to file>import>wavefront .OBJ and find that file. then export it as an obj and inject it back into hmt.

well, i tryed but when i open it with the wavefront thing.
the screen changes, a bit only i still odnt see any gun. i did this:

1, save pistol.obj
2, opened ms3d
3, import->wavefront OBJ->pistol.obj
4, still dont see anything
