Maya 8.5 file in Maya 6.0

[Ni3ls]

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

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?

[serthy]

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.

[Ni3ls]

I already set the version in the Maya ASCII file to 6.0.

. I already did that.

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.

[Ni3ls]

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 ?

Sorry, but the rules of the forum prohibit us from giving you links to pirated copyright material.

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

I never asked for pirated copyright material.
