| + | Sometimes the meshes were done with Mesh Serializer. Therefore the models were only calculated. The importer script has a problem with that. In that certain case just copy your Mesh-file in the OgreXMLConverter folder and then drag it to OgreXMLConverter.exe. The XML file will be created in the same folder and you still can import the file with the Mesh importer described above. It does not always have to be a mesh file because XML can also be used with that script. | ||
