I keep getting errors when I try to open a model in Matrix Eater. In MdlVis, it imports correctly. However, when I click on the Sequence editor it gives me a popup saying 'model is damaged, report to author.' The model opens fine in Magos' Model Editor.

How did you generate this model?

The sequence looks ok, albeit it has no information other than its interval. I don't know why this is an issue for MdlVis.

The Matrix Eater error results from your vertices.
They are supposedly attached to matrix group 255 (presumably converted from -1).
The geosets have 0 matrix groups, and indeed the model has no bones in the first place.
To fix this, add a bone in Magos, and then add a matrix group for it and change the vertex groups. The latter two will probably be a lot easier to do with a text editor in MDL format. If you need help I can do this for you.
I reported this to Retera, since it is after all supported by the game, even if it's broken.
