I don't mind if you use it. I have found a couple of bugs myself. If you can send me the code/model that won't save, I'll see if I can fix it.
Also until I learn the .x format a little better, this only supports 1 texture stage. If more than one stage is even possible in .x, as everyone seems to be having problems with it.
[edit] For now this may help you. Modify this part of code to add the convert object fvf 274. This will not affect the original object just the temp objects created for the limb data.
[edit2] Also possibly fixed a vert holding bug with the array size. I am at work so I can't test this.
