little help with joints

[zxzkilme]

when i load piccolo.smd in milkshape and i delete the piccolo model leaving the joints and bones still there and i put the tien model without bones and joints (basically replacing piccolo with tien but same bones and joints) i assign the joints to the verticles then i export it to piccolo.smd then i compile all the qc to turn it back to mdl then i get this error "unknown bonecontroller link 'Bip01 Spine" what am i doing wrong am i missing somthing? because i really wanna play esf with a tien model lol i want somthn new

It usually means you have nothing assigned to that specific bone controller, assign some verticles to whichever bone its whining about and it should recompile.

i assigned all of the verticles to a bone and i even checked nothings in white ther all red marked allready

to A bone?

you need to assign the verts you want to move wth each particular bone TO that particular bone, not just all to one.

i no that i assigned all the 3 leg bones (leg knee and foot) to different verticles and so on i did it specifically with each bone i didnt just assign all verts to 1 bone and it gives me the error when i export it which do i choose reference or sequence?
