Is ther an easy way to determine which bones are which?

[Meteor_demon]

I'm currently working on a blood elf - phoenix morph based on the druid of the talon model, but I am constantly frustrated because I don't know which parts of the models are attached to what bones. Is there an easy way to determine what bones are where? PLZ HELP ME T.T

In VM, look for 'View assigned vertices'.

Hmmm... I can't find that option, by VM you do mean Vertex Modifier, right? I think i might be blind cuz i can't find this option :/

Open a model. Then go to tools -> Vertex group of selection (vertices must be selected). This will show you which matrices are named as which bones, therefore you have to go to tools -> view matrices. This will give you the assignments on bones to matrices. To look up which bones is which number, you have to look for the bone's ObjectId. Best thing to do so would be using notepad opening a mdl not a mdx.
