Bleh I just started screwing around with modeling today, I can create a model and I understand UV wrapping and what not. But when I make a model with milkshape and then export it (it is just faced vertexes nothing else) and then try to convert it with the mdlx converter it says "line 18 unknown chunk".

When I open the file with notepad it says paste heading here =/, what is that? The models is fine when I export it from vertex modifier as well, so it is probably due to the export/import process with ms3d.

File > Export > Warcraft III MDL...

Edit: Added two attachments, I opened the cube primitive in vertex modifier, saved it as a mdl. That is the one file, the other one is that same file, converted to an mdx, imported to milkshape, and then exported from milkshape. I cannot convert the mdl that is exported from milkshape because of the line 18 thing.
