It would be great if we can load directly b3d meshes without converting with any tool.
B3d with multitexturing and some texturelayer and animated too.
I hope fred, you can add this in one of the next updates.

Yes thats the problem.
B3d is a solid format and most of my models are in this format.

Converting to .mesh works not correctly all the time.

What about converting your b3d file to a xml file. Then simply use OgreXmlConverter to create the mesh or skeleton files.
This what I do for my custom formats and as of yet I've never had a problem with the xml converter.

Here's the link to the OgreXmlConverter if your interested.

I didn't really mean use a modeling exporter. I meant use Purebasic to create a simple converter from b3d to xml.
Xml files are plain text files and if b3d are unencrypted then it should be easy to make a converter.
Just by looking at a couple samples of each. You should be able to see what needs to be changed.

for this you must read the b3d format correctly.
