Who can fix this ninja player model?

[[-z-]]

Once I attempted to port this ninja model from devsh's Project Ninja Star. For not knowing anything about modeling or player models, I got pretty far.... but there are two problems.

One is obvious, he is flying. His feet aren't touching the ground.




"Can't you just lower the model?"
Sure! If I knew how... but I don't.


The second problem, is he needs his hand bone labeled so the weapon will appear.


Third... but not really a "problem" is he's actually holding a sword that just disappears in game... don't know why, didn't matter, I'd delete it anyway (if I knew how).


Here are the source files. Any help is very much appreciated.

I'd do it, but i dont have an .md3 to .blend importer and an .blend to .md3 exporter.

I'd do it, but i dont have an .md3 to .blend importer and an .blend to .md3 exporter.

Import the .ms3d file, that's a milkshape source file that blender can import. Then when it is time to export, instead of .md3, go the .smd route (a couple folks created exporters for this).


I looked at it myself and the ninja model seems to have its feet resting on the origin. But that might not make a difference depending on how Nexuiz positions player models relative to the hit box. That is, it might not use the origin as the 'floor'.

So input from someone who has been successful at getting a player model working in Nexuiz is probably needed here. . .

ingame do:
modeldecompile models/bah/blah.bla

turns it to a .obj
