My Copy

Onto All of the goods and bad's have found out about this combo of plugins

 

--REI--

• REI imports models flawlessly
• sets up materials perfectly
• imports textures automatically
• sucks at skeletons

       Verdict: overall its the best for just moving meshes with their materials from point a to b, or for importing

       How to REI: REI uses .mesh and .mdf, while selecting your file for import select both a mesh and mdf(basically the materials for the model)

--SEModel--

• Import's model's okay-ish
• sucks at materials
• cant really do textures
• Working and good skeletons

       Verdict: Just use the skeletons off of SEmodel, it will work a whole lot better

       How to SEM: It's one file, i get why you are reading this though.

--SEAnim--

• Animations.

       Verdict: DISAPEAR INTO THE NIGHT

       How to SEA: Before opening the import prompt, select a skeleton (Yes the one from SEmodel) THEN import your SE anim
