Sorry about that. Hey mods, can you flip this post over to the SEV area?

Doga works fine, however it is not very efficent. You can export your doga models to X format which the game does use, but the polygon count is too high for the game to be able to use them well. Problem two is mapping a texture onto your models.

I think Zircher can help with the polygon thing, but you would need a good 3d modeling program to do much with the textures.

You would have to convert the X formated model into 3ds, make the changes and map the texture, then export it, then convert back to x format for the game.

My understanding is that the Modeler used for SE V was in fact 3ds max. (Don't quote me though)
