    Icon5 How can I change the file extention (.VARIANT_WHEIGHT.....)?

    I have downloaded Packfilemanager and I have Photoshop trial version. When i extracted a file in Pack File Manager to a folder and tried to open it it didn't work...Photoshop can't recognise the file format. Is there a program or somethin I can do to change the file format from .VARIANT_WHEIGHT_MESH-file to somthing that Photshop can open?(Like .dds becouse I have tried downloading the DDS plugin for Photoshop)

    Variant_weighted_meshes are model files not textures.

    You need Knight Errants Milkshape Converter (and Milkshape of course) to edit those models. Ultimate Unwrap works too, but costs money.

    Problem : I've downloaded Knight Errants Converter but when I try to run the converter it pops up a black screen that says " Invalid syntax " and where the converter file is (D:\Downloaded\etc... How can I fix it?

    To run Knighterrant's converter you need an application that can read .py files. You can find one for free at python.org. I personally recommend version 2.7 as I have had problems using later versions on Windows 7.
