I have made a custom enemy for amnesia the dark descent and animated it. But when I try to open it in the model viewer it says error and when I check error messages it says: No 'extra scene' element found. What does that mean?

Only screwed around with the original models.I know the problem... It's in maya, I used the IK skeleton but for some reason that can't be opened in the model viewer. So I made my own skeleton but I have a new problem If I use the skeleton to get his arms down, and I export it like that, in the modelviewer it opens with his arms just up, so not like it is exported in maya (sorry for bad english, I'm dutch)
ps. I think you may check what are you missing by seeing animation list of the gatherer, for example.

The animation will still be the same as you made with IKs and controllers since you will basically key every frame on the joints.
The second problem that you're having is happening because once you bind a skeleton to a mesh it will make a bind pose which is what you will see in the model viewer unless you make an animation. Since you're monster will never be static why bother making his arms down if it will have an idle animation where you can put his arms down anyway?

e.g.
export slender.dae > rename to > slender_walking.dae_anim

I can't change it. It's just named monster, not with dea after it...
