well you have to weight all the mesh to the bones and to work a bit less download the JK3:JA skelleton with tags weighted at http://www3.sympatico.ca/psykopat/)
And follow all the tutorials, trusth me, i had no idea of getting a model in game and it was bcuz i wasnt following the steps.
To weight follow the skin modifier tutorial

Have you read the tutorials? i explain each step and which order they need to be done.

Read the SKIN MODIFIER tutorial, and you can use the JA skeleton on my webpage.

I'll check the XSI file you sent, bu i doubt the weighting will remain intact (if you have done any!).

Ok so i managed to import the .XSI with an updated version of the plugin but something's wrong, there are no bones (except some eff helpers) which means it's useless.

and you didnt send the .3ds, it's another .max file :confused:

OK.. i did everything now.. the meshes are all weighted and......

ERROR... VIRTUAL MAMORY TOO LOW... CARCASS CANT WRITE ON 0x0something.... DAMN IT... this isnt normal right??? carcass uses just 14 mb of RAM memory, i have 200 MB of free RAM memory, WHAT IS THE FREAKING PROBLEM with this weirdo program anyway.... LOL... is there any program that works????????
the entire project is working the 3d studio max 6 is working perfecly, and the carcass didnt report any problem of weighting... can some one with experience just copile the new xsi file to the GLM??? if someone do that i can actualy use this model:D :D :D

Geez and i thought i saw it all with this damn carcass, i dont recall anyone having this error.

Might not be the problem, but how big is your swap file? I can try to compile it if you want, just drop it in my box.

Your english if fine :p
