Okay I just started trying to port in black ops and black ops 2 guns into world at war but since i have to use maya, i load up either the world model or the viewmodel and when i take off all the attachments and stuff i dont need and go to export selected joints, it crashes and says maya application has stopped working. Is there a way i can fix this? I do have maya 8.5 with the world at war plugin.

anyone know whats wrong? Sorry to double post but i really need this sorted

I would highly recommend getting a new version of Maya. Preferably 2012. Otherwise, it sounds like you didn't add the joints to the models. To do this, take the Maya script file in the model you exported's original folder and drag the file on the gun.

I second this. Once 8.5 starts crashing it only gets worse from what I've heard. 2012 and beyond is much more pleasant to use and Aidan's exporting plugin works nearly flawlessly for xmodel and animation exporting.

Oh okay I heard that 8.5 works the best for porting weapons, ill try 2012 with the plugin then, thanks!
