Maya 8.5 file in Maya 6.0

Hi i want to import weapons from newer COD into COD2. I use Lime for Tom Crowley. But it convert the models to Maya 8.5 file. Is there a way to import it in Maya 6.0? I already set the version in the Maya ASCII file to 6.0. I get these errors when I import it into Maya 6.0

Code:

// Error: file: C:/Users/Niels/Desktop/COD/lime/exported/t6_wpn_shotty_saiga_view/t6_wpn_shotty_saiga_view_LOD_0.ma line 65: The lightLinker 't6_wpn_shotty_saiga_view_LOD_0:lightLinker1' has no '.slnk' attribute. // // Error: file: C:/Users/Niels/Desktop/COD/lime/exported/t6_wpn_shotty_saiga_view/t6_wpn_shotty_saiga_view_LOD_0.ma line 65: No object matches name: .slnk // // Error: file: C:/Users/Niels/Desktop/COD/lime/exported/t6_wpn_shotty_saiga_view/t6_wpn_shotty_saiga_view_LOD_0.ma line 70: The renderLayer 't6_wpn_shotty_saiga_view_LOD_0:defaultRenderLayer' has no '.g' attribute. // // Error: file: C:/Users/Niels/Desktop/COD/lime/exported/t6_wpn_shotty_saiga_view/t6_wpn_shotty_saiga_view_LOD_0.ma line 70: No object matches name: .g // // Error: file: C:/Users/Niels/Desktop/COD/lime/exported/t6_wpn_shotty_saiga_view/t6_wpn_shotty_saiga_view_LOD_0.ma line 100: The lightLinker 'lightLinker1' has no 'slnk[0].sllk' attribute. // // Error: file: C:/Users/Niels/Desktop/COD/lime/exported/t6_wpn_shotty_saiga_view/t6_wpn_shotty_saiga_view_LOD_0.ma line 100: The destination attribute 'lightLinker1.slnk[0].sllk' cannot be found. // // Error: file: C:/Users/Niels/Desktop/COD/lime/exported/t6_wpn_shotty_saiga_view/t6_wpn_shotty_saiga_view_LOD_0.ma line 101: The lightLinker 'lightLinker1' has no 'slnk[0].solk' attribute. // // Error: file: C:/Users/Niels/Desktop/COD/lime/exported/t6_wpn_shotty_saiga_view/t6_wpn_shotty_saiga_view_LOD_0.ma line 101: The destination attribute 'lightLinker1.slnk[0].solk' cannot be found. // // Error: file: C:/Users/Niels/Desktop/COD/lime/exported/t6_wpn_shotty_saiga_view/t6_wpn_shotty_saiga_view_LOD_0.ma line 102: The lightLinker 'lightLinker1' has no 'slnk[1].sllk' attribute. // // Error: file: C:/Users/Niels/Desktop/COD/lime/exported/t6_wpn_shotty_saiga_view/t6_wpn_shotty_saiga_view_LOD_0.ma line 102: The destination attribute 'lightLinker1.slnk[1].sllk' cannot be found. // // Error: file: C:/Users/Niels/Desktop/COD/lime/exported/t6_wpn_shotty_saiga_view/t6_wpn_shotty_saiga_view_LOD_0.ma line 103: The lightLinker 'lightLinker1' has no 'slnk[1].solk' attribute. // // Error: file: C:/Users/Niels/Desktop/COD/lime/exported/t6_wpn_shotty_saiga_view/t6_wpn_shotty_saiga_view_LOD_0.ma line 103: The destination attribute 'lightLinker1.slnk[1].solk' cannot be found. //

How to fix it and get it properly working in Maya 6.0? Or can I open it in Maya 8.5 and then save it as a Maya 6.0 file?

Save your file as *.ma open it in a text editor and replace the version from 8.5 to 6.0.
This works for models, but i guess it will fck up all the meshweights and/or the skeletton.

I will check If I can make it work for Maya 6.0 by default for you.

If I can, it will included in the Ghost support update.

That would be very cool. I already got all the weaponmodels+images from another website for now.

Is there anywhere I can get Maya 6, I use to have but lost it :( ?

Also just a question, why do you not use the xmodel_export files from Lime unless there is a reason you need to place it in maya ?

Those xmodel_export files differs when you export to COD2 with Maya. Too many bones when I tried it with Asset Manager

of course you asked for links to pirated software. You did that when you asked if there was anywhere you could get Maya 6. DOH!

No I asked "there anywhere I can get Maya 6" I never stated I wanted a illegal version, you just assumed. DOH!

I just noticed now that you are Tom-Bmx, welcome here! :D

There is unfortunately the 127 bones limit.

You can download Maya 6.0 PLE (Personal Learning Edition) from the Springer publisher, it's part of the book: Understanding 3D Animation Using Maya

The .exe is in this folder: http://extras.springer.com/2005/978-...176-0/Maya6PLE

I think many people searched that already, I was lucky and found it. :)
