problem exporting to md2 in milkshape
Hi all, I'm new to these forums so I'll introduce myself. My name's Dean, I'm 22 from England and I'm a student studying Video Game Development. I've been given an assignment to create a small rally game, part of this assignment is to read in a variety of md2 files. As there doesn't seem to be too many of these floating… -
