I so wish I was better at this, but I'm not <sigh>. I bought a full perm rigged clothing dae. Its origin is Maya. I imported to 3DS, but when I import I get these error messages: While reading or writing a file the following notifications have been raised. -Warning: Unrecognized <geometry> element: extra -Warning: The unsupported technique element with profile "OpenCOLLADAMaya" in node element "polySurface217" -Warning: The unsupported technique element with profile "OpenCOLLADAMaya" in node element "mSkull" -Warning: The unsupported technique element with profile "OpenCOLLADAMaya" in node element "mEyeRight" -Warning: The unsupported technique element with profile "OpenCOLLADAMaya" in node element "mEyeLeft" -Warning: The unsupported technique element with profile "OpenCOLLADAMaya" in node element "mHead" -Warning: The unsupported technique element with profile "OpenCOLLADAMaya" in node element "mNeck" -Warning: The unsupported technique element with profile "OpenCOLLADAMaya" in node element "mWristLeft" -Warning: The unsupported technique element with profile "OpenCOLLADAMaya" in node element "mElbowLeft" -Warning: The unsupported technique element with profile "OpenCOLLADAMaya" in node element "mShoulderLeft" -Warning: The unsupported technique element with profile "OpenCOLLADAMaya" in node element "mCollarLeft" -Warning: The unsupported technique element with profile "OpenCOLLADAMaya" in node element "mWristRight" -Warning: The unsupported technique element with profile "OpenCOLLADAMaya" in node element "mElbowRight" -Warning: The unsupported technique element with profile "OpenCOLLADAMaya" in node element "mShoulderRight" -Warning: The unsupported technique element with profile "OpenCOLLADAMaya" in node element "mCollarRight" -Warning: The unsupported technique element with profile "OpenCOLLADAMaya" in node element "mChest" -Warning: The unsupported technique element with profile "OpenCOLLADAMaya" in node element "mTorso" -Warning: The unsupported technique element with profile "OpenCOLLADAMaya" in node element "mToeRight" -Warning: The unsupported technique element with profile "OpenCOLLADAMaya" in node element "mFootRight" -Warning: The unsupported technique element with profile "OpenCOLLADAMaya" in node element "mAnkleRight" -Warning: The unsupported technique element with profile "OpenCOLLADAMaya" in node element "mKneeRight" -Warning: The unsupported technique element with profile "OpenCOLLADAMaya" in node element "mHipRight" -Warning: The unsupported technique element with profile "OpenCOLLADAMaya" in node element "mToeLeft" -Warning: The unsupported technique element with profile "OpenCOLLADAMaya" in node element "mFootLeft" -Warning: The unsupported technique element with profile "OpenCOLLADAMaya" in node element "mAnkleLeft" -Warning: The unsupported technique element with profile "OpenCOLLADAMaya" in node element "mKneeLeft" -Warning: The unsupported technique element with profile "OpenCOLLADAMaya" in node element "mHipLeft" -Warning: The unsupported technique element with profile "OpenCOLLADAMaya" in node element "mPelvis" After some minor deformations to the mesh and tried exporting as a collada (dae) using FBX. No errors on export, but when I try to upload to SL it's not seeing the rigging anymore because I don't have a skin weights option. I tested by importing the Maya model into 3DS and exporting without touching anything. Same problem. Then I tried importing into Maya and I got the same errors I did with 3DS. I can't figure out why I'm getting the import errors. Anyone have an answer? I'm a dunce with Maya, but I have access to it at school if I need to use it. Thank you in advance :)
