Custom monster issue!

[Kirbypwnage]

I did a few very quick(very very quick) experiements with blender to maya import/export and I think that the Autodesk FBX format might be better then collada.
You see the FBX export included a rig(that has some large bones attached to it) the animation and the mesh. the animation was running really fast though intact and I had to assign the texture manually.
The collada on the other hand included a rig just like the other, a mesh of course and the texture was loaded properly(though this might just have something to do with the collada and texture being in the same folder) but the animation was just not there.

so I recommend FBX

the collada and fbx both included a re export from blender of the servant grunt.

Okay... So I imported it into Maya, and got a plugin working, so I could export into .dae files. But then this happened.
(Look at the pic down there)
Very pretty result... Anyone know a solution for that?

Thats what I was expecting, yeah...

Oh and I almost forgot, a great big THANK YOU for posting a link to that thread, I think I can actually figure out a lot with it!
