[Help] M2 AND BLP in 3D MAX

[Kleavage]

I've searched the forums for days and would like to put some input back in as soon as I figure this out:

I can export M2 files and if they have them the BLP's then using Glitchy's program convert M2 to OBJ and import to 3dMax.

The problem I have is I need to be able to render the model in max with the skin....

Any ideas "yes im a newb @ 3d max"

sorry mate already been through that code - only appears to work on GMAX which I don't have.

I've tried serveral versions off the original authors website but it will only import the model and i have to manually add the textures!!

I'm using 3DS MAX 9 btw

no worrys I managed to slightly re-write the gmax script to work, although I currently have to do the blp->tga conversion myself using BLP2toTGA.exe

I'll post a few models up in my custom flash 3d object rotator when they are rendered :P

Heres the outcome after a heavy maxscript re-write and a flash source rewrite!
I'm going to try and bring animation and sound to this next :P

PS: I know I should not post links yet - but if people like what they see I will personally write a guide and host all the files required to do the above yourself - and support it!
