3dsMax Half-Life 2 SMD Importer by Cannonfodder
Version 0.1a
All rights reserved

This Max Plugin will load a Half-Life 2 SMD.
It can load both reference and animation SMD's.
It supports weights in the SMD file and will create a skin modifer for the reference model
It can also rebuild the smoothing groups from the vertex normals in the SMD file
although this can take some time if the model is large.

You can load a reference SMD and then load an animation SMD and it will apply
the animation to the reference model (This sometimes ends up with wierd results.
I'm not sure why)

Place this in your "Program Files/Autodesk/3ds Max 9/plugins" directory 

This importer is a work in progress. It may crash MAX, crash your computer,
or cause the collapse of civilization. 

Be forwarned and please save any max work before using.
