Ouah ! I'm the first to comment and I'm so glad to do so.
THANKS !!!!
It's so hard to fight with Sims 2 files when you don't have Milkshape3D.
It's a wonderfull addition to meshing.

Now I'm starting to hope again that someone will do something for animation importer one day....

Thanks again for the hard work.

Thank you! I'm gonna wait for the latest blender version, it is so much easier than Milkshape, I've been waiting for this since so long.

I am most certainly adding my gratitude to the list of Blender users here. I could never get my head around Milkshape. This is a much needed tool and I thank you so very much for creating it.

Hello! I have installed Blender 2.49b, and this plugin does not work (Python error check the console). Python installed (version 2.6.2.). What am I doing wrong?

Ok. Copy files into scripts folder (no subdirs):
..\.blender\scripts\gmdc_import.py
..\.blender\scripts\gmdc_export.py
..\.blender\scripts\gen_footprint.py
..\.blender\scripts\gmdc_tools\

Thank you, and a Question
Hi DjAlex88!

Thank you so much for sharing your GMDC importer/exporter with us! I was able to get the script to load in blender, but whenever I try to use it I get this error: "Could not load geometry file. See log for details". Then when I check the log, I get this:

Any advice would be greatly appreciated; I think this is a really amazing tool and I'd really love to use it! :D

Hello!
Installing Python2.6 should fix this problem. (https://www.python.org/download/releases/2.6.6/)
