    At times this converter can be tricky even for experienced modellers.
    One of the issues you need to be aware of, is that parts that have been processed with different converters may cause problems.
    Also the proper way to ask for help includes posting images (from milkshape and IG) and uploading your model and the textures you are using, as your problem could be caused by any of a large number of factors.

    I gave the model a look and found some group comment discrepancies which I fixed, they might have been the problem, or not.
    I also made some changes in the names of some groups for my own convenience (I needed to know what each group was without the need to look at the 3D viewport).

    The thing, however, that hit me right away was the lod1 designation in the name of the model.
    If you are only going to use one lod, then it must be lod0.

    Other than that, you need to make sure that your model is using the correct animations.
    That is a matter of scripting.

    Here is my version with small fixes, let me know if it works.

    I gave a careful look at the joints and bones of your model (joints tab) and compared it with my peasant archers (animated bowstring model).

    You have merged to your model attachments from a model that uses animated bowstring, but you have not merged the right skeleton for this animation.
    It seems your primaryactives are assigned to bones that do not exist in your model.

    The simple solution would be to make a non animated bowstring version of your model.
    Or, you can try to follow the instructions in this tutorial:
    Bowstring animated model creation

    i try adding simple stuff with all kinds of different units, simple stuff like a bag or a sword hilt, a simple cape, a simple helmet , a lone quiver and EVERYTHING is invicible in game, its like this game is completely totally unmodable out of nowere ,so i doub this has anything to do with those animations you mention

    this is the GOAT_GOAL_ver1_0a message i get after merging

    I don't believe I can help.
    I did not have this problem before.
