Hello.
I would like to ask what OGRE mesh converter is the best and why.

I would like to know what of those are the easy ones to use and wich of them convert fully textured mesh's bone animation. I'm not really interested in converters wich only can be used with extremly expesive modelling packages like 3D Studio Max. But I can afford a modeller for 200$.
So to summarize what I mean is:

converter's
- availability for modelling packages
- ease of use
- simultaneous support for texturing(skins) and bone animation
- other cool features

Thanks a lot.

A very good converter is a 3D Tool that coverts from and to many formats, also OGRE- xml. Animations from X to OGRE-xml are also converted perfectly, you then only need the free xml- converter from OGRE. Also you can create models and animations. It's free but you have to register for only 20$.
