I found a nice dropship model I wanted to convert to my mod, and quite conveniently it already had a .ms3d file in the package. It had like 50 textures of which 45 were duplicates, so I trimmed them down to one texture, but the thing still has tons of meshes (dunno if that's the problem already there but..).
So anyhow, I made a script like this:
á la Steve Tack, all the files are in their proper places and I exported the texture to DX through unr2de as it should be. But anyhow, when I try to even place the item in the game to see if it even worked, I get this error message://=============================================================================

So yeah, I'm wondering if the problem already lies with the model itself, the code that I'm trying to use or something else.
