Loading Milkshape 3D 1.7.0 models and textures

I’ve been looking around all the forums to see if anybody had written any code that will load a milkshape model and texture into openGL and display it. I found some code and also the upgrade to that code and tried it out. It loads the model but does not load the texture. I read around some more and noticed other people had this same problem a few years ago and it was due to Milkshape changing its file format.

My question is, does anybody know where I can find code that will load the current version of Milkshape models and textures? Or does anybody know how I can go about writing my own loader, first off by how I can go about analyzing the current file format since it is in binary.

any help is appreciated.

Hi

Try downloading the MilkShape 3D SDK 1.5

There should be info on the file format in it.

Hope it helps
