Wings 3D isn't exactly Sims friendly or more people would be using it, pretty much the entire community uses MilkShape -- a few rich or less scrupulous sorts use 3D Studio Max

What kind of mesh are you importing and how are you importing to and from Milkshape/SimPE?

Wow. That tutorial is as old as time and written for a much much older version of SimPE - unless it has been updated recently (which I doubt). You should not need a mesh tool at all...its all built into SimPE now.

All you do is open a mesh, extract the GMDC (.5GD)...import it into Milkshape 1.7.7a using the Sims 2 plug-in by WesH, make your changes, export back to disk. Then go back to SimPE...select the GMDC record again, right click on it, choose Import... and point to the modified mesh you saved.
