Help reskinning monsters

[genmills]

Hrm that's very bizarre. I haven't had trouble importing to 2.57...Try deleting the camera, light source, and the dumb little cube before importing. Or do that same reverse operation with 2.49b...open your .dae in 2.49b and save it as a .blend so you can open it in 2.57.

I'll upload a video tomorrow showing where to click and such if you don't figure it out before then. And if that still gives you trouble you just send your .dds file to me and I'll try it out, and if it works I'll send you back the .dae file with the edited texture.

Why not just do the whole thing in 2.49 then? Of course, that wouldn't work for me anyway, because anytime I import one of the monsters into 2.49 it says import failed, even though I'm use collada 1.4...
