I recommend including a link to the source model (*.ms3d file) for testing... have you made sure not to export from the animation keyframer and to disable the operate on select joints only option before export? ... have you checked for duplicate limb or bone names? Your first model is the hardest to get right ....

make sure the model is all selected before exporting, also try using the other .x exporter

I do know how to export it with LightWave. as an animated object that is.

If you want it I can post it here. Anyway, u also need a null object where everything is parented on etc.

Load Image ????

The command is Load Object... silly.

But, if that was just a typo on your behalf, then I can't help anymore as I don't have Milkshape.

Try loading it into another app, such as JTEdit, or something else, and see if the same thing happens, If if does, then there's a problem with how you're exporting it...

Hope I Helped...
Jess.

I have not been able to export any .x models from Milkshape to work on DB either, I just open up the .ms3d file in LithUnwrap and export it as a .x from there, and it works fine.

Good Luck
