Slenderman Monster

My friend/creator of the model told me he may create a skeleton and animations for the model but he doesn't fully understand how i've searched online for a tutorial and only found this http://www.wazim.com/Collada_Tutorial_1.htm will this help him or does any one else know a better tutorial on this kinda thing

Now I'm not a programmer, so most of that tutorial is gibberish to me, but it seems to be about how you can write a program in C++ that is able to read mesh and animation data from Collada files. It's probably meant for people who want to write their own game engine or something like that. It has nothing to do with rigging and animating a mesh in a 3D program.

Your friend should be able to find plenty of tutorials for Maya or Blender or whatever he's using, though. Just type "-Name of his 3D program- rigging tutorial" or something like that into the good ol' googlemachine

Have you tried importing your file into, say, Maya and re-exporting it? Also, which file are you trying to import as mesh into the model editor? The .dae file or an .ent file?
